The finding aid for the Anders Beer Wilse Philippine American War Photo Album, August 1899 says, 'While many of the photographs refer to a “Camp Robinson,” it’s possible that “Camp Robinson” refers to W.W. Robinson, Jr. (also depicted in several of the photos) and was merely a nickname for the unnamed encampment. Because there are several photographs of horses being watered at Green Lake, it is believed that the camp was somewhere in the vicinity of present-day Green Lake and Woodland Park.'
