There are some sources that would probably be helpful for this article that I don't have access to:

Hillam, Christine. James Robinson (1813-1862): Professional Irritant and Britain's First Anaesthetist. United Kingdom, Lindsay Society for the History of Dentistry, 1996. (Google Books)
"Lindsay Club: James Robinson and anaesthesia". British Dental Journal. 158 (10): 382–382. 1985. doi:10.1038/sj.bdj.4805617. ISSN 0007-0610.
Ellis RH. The life of James Robinson, Britain's first anaesthetist. Occas Newsl Lindsay Club. 1985 Oct;(11):18-20. PMID: 3914627.

Maybe someone in the UK will be able to find these. There are also apparently obituaries in The Lancet and BMJ, which should be available online somewhere, but which I wasn't able to track down (granted I didn't look all that hard). Spicy (talk) 08:54, 19 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
