"A Day for Doughnuts" was written by Virginia Kimball (1976)In her account of John Robinson, Olive Prescott, Robinson’s great, great granddaughter describes the activities of April 19, 1775, from memories of the Robinson Family, accounts from town records and the reports of local historians.
She describes the lunch that Huldah and her daughters prepared to send to Concord. To feed the many men they cook a bushel of doughnuts. Westford History proudly reports that John Robinson and the companies of Westford participated in the colonial resistance and evolution of that day. The events at the North Bridge in Concord evidence John Robinson as an American Hero of liberty. In his dedicated response to the call of duty, Lt. Col. John Robinson exhibited his courage and worked to secure our American Freedom.
Virginia (Ginny) Kimball was an accomplished writer of poetry, plays, academic works and Christmas Cars, she was also a teacher by profession.
