ROBINSON, Eugene
In the fall of 1932, archaeologist, Richard F. Van Valkenburgh, participated in an archaeological expedition on Fraser Point, Santa Cruz Island, under the direction of David Banks Rogers, Curator of Archaeology and Paleontology at the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History. Also participating were Milton S. Snow, photographer, Eugene Robinson and Nicomedes Villaseñor.
Archaeological artifacts from Santa Cruz Island, Santa Rosa Island and San Nicolas Island, now in the British Museum, were collected by Eugene Robinson. They came from the collections of Harry Geoffrey Beasley, donated by Irene Margaret Beasley in 1944.
