Prudence Mary Robinson, 59, was a passenger and went down with the Lusitania with her husband, Charles Robinson. Charles and Prudence were American nationals with a home on Tulpehocken Street in Germantown, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States. They had given up that home so that Charles could be the London representative of the Walkover Shoe Company. Prudence and Charles were both lost in the Lusitania disaster.
Prudence had a brother named Charles Rose. She left him $500 in her will in the event of her death “as a memorial gift from me”. After the end of World War I, her brother sued Germany for compensation without success.
