Pepy's Diary. 28 Feb 1664. The Lieutenant of the Tower, [her husband] Sir J. Robinson (age 49), would needs have me by coach home with him, and sending word home to my house I did go and dine with him, his ordinary table being very good, and his lady (age 52) a very high-carriaged but comely big woman; I was mightily pleased with her. His officers of his regiment dined with him. No discourse at table to any purpose, only after dinner my Lady would needs see a boy which was represented to her to be an innocent country boy brought up to towne a day or two ago, and left here to the wide world, and he losing his way fell into the Tower, which my Lady believes, and takes pity on him, and will keep him; but though a little boy and but young, yet he tells his tale so readily and answers all questions so wittily, that for certain he is an arch rogue, and bred in this towne; but my Lady will not believe it, but ordered victuals to be given him, and I think will keep him as a footboy for their eldest son.
Pepy's Diary. 16 Oct 1665. At the Tower [Map] found my Lord Duke (age 56) and Duchesse (age 46) at dinner; so I sat down. And much good cheer, the [her husband] Lieutenant (age 50) and his lady (age 53), and several officers with the Duke. But, Lord! to hear the silly talk that was there, would make one mad; the Duke having none almost but fools about him. Much of their talke about the Dutch coming on shore, which they believe they may some of them have been and steal sheep, and speak all in reproach of them in whose hands the fleete is; but, Lord helpe him, there is something will hinder him and all the world in going to sea, which is want of victuals; for we have not wherewith to answer our service; and how much better it would have been if the Duke's advice had been taken for the fleete to have gone presently out; but, God helpe the King (age 35)! while no better counsels are given, and what is given no better taken.
Pepy's Diary. 05 Nov 1665. Then the lady and I to very serious discourse and, among other things, of what a bonny lasse my Lady Robinson (age 53) is, who is reported to be kind to the prisoners, and has said to Sir G. Smith (age 50), who is her great crony, "Look! there is a pretty man, I would be content to break a commandment with him", and such loose expressions she will have often.
Pepy's Diary. 05 Nov 1665. Here comes in, in the middle of our discourse Captain Cocke (age 48), as drunk as a dogg, but could stand, and talk and laugh. He did so joy himself in a brave woman that he had been with all the afternoon, and who should it be but my Lady Robinson (age 53), but very troublesome he is with his noise and talke, and laughing, though very pleasant. With him in his coach to Mr. Glanville's (age 47), where he sat with Mrs. Penington and myself a good while talking of this fine woman again and then went away.
Pepy's Diary. 19 Dec 1666. I down into the Hall, and there the [her husband] Lieutenant of the Tower (age 51) took me with him, and would have me to the Tower to dinner; where I dined at the head of his table, next his lady (age 54), who is comely and seeming sober and stately, but very proud and very cunning, or I am mistaken, and wanton, too. This day's work will bring the Lieutenant of the Tower £350. But a strange, conceited, vain man he is that ever I met withal, in his own praise, as I have heretofore observed of him.
Around 1669 [her son] James Robinson 3rd Baronet was born to [her husband] John Robinson 1st Baronet (age 53) and Anne Whitmore Lady Robinson (age 57).
