Laurajo,
My grandfather, Frank A. Robinson was the contractor who built the first Bank of Brandywine for your grandfather. He also built your grandfather's home in Brandywine. I have a photo of that house and would be happy to send you a copy. I would love to have a copy of the photo you have of the Bank of Brandywine and any information that you may have about the building of the bank or your grandfather's house. For many years, a portrait of your grandfather hung in the bank and may still be there for all I know. It still exists (as SunTrust in a 1960s era building) in Brandywine. Hope to hear from you.
