      There is probably no man better known in grain and milling circles in Utah than David Robbins, of Salt Lake, City, the president of the Utah-Idaho Grain Exchange. He was born February 13, 1872, in the city which is, still his home, his parents being James and Ann (Adamson) Robbins, the former a native of England, while, the latter was born in Scotland. They emigrated to America in early life and were numbered among the, pioneer settlers of Utah, taking up their abode in Salt Lake. The father was one of the early contractors of, the city and attained prominence in this connection. He was awarded a contract in connection with the, building of the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad to Salt Lake and the terminus at Ogden. He afterward entered, mercantile circles in Salt Lake and his last days were spent in Denver, Colorado, where he passed away in, 1886. His widow survived for an extended period, her death occuring in Los Angeles, California, in 1912.
