Abstract
Walter Robson (1842-1929) was a British Quaker who acted as secretary-companion to his
cousin, Joseph James Neave (1835-1913), when the latter made a lengthy journey to
Australia in the years 1867 to 1871.
Neave had been dispatched by the London Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of
Friends (Quakers) to report on the condition of the fledgling Quaker community in
Australasia, and to attempt to reconcile differences among members of the Sydney Quaker
Meeting. Typed from the original in the possession of Mary Evelyn Robson Rees by Michael Harry Ford-Smith, Teddington, Middlesex, April 1963
