[PW] ? Old time actress

[Bye, Dan J]

Looking at this logically, it seems on the face of it unlikely that an actress who was playing the Marchioness of Castlejordan (who is a mother, according to the AFI Catalog)  in a 1917 film would be playing a "Manager-Cashier" nearly 50 years later.    Possible, but unlikely.  
 
There was a Jesse Robinson who seems to have appeared in various films between 1911 and 1914 (according to IMDB). Is that likely to the husband?

Subject: [PW] ? Old time actress



A patron is trying to find biographical information on Helen Larder (or
Robinson) who was an actress in 1930s (possibly earlier or later also).
On the INTERNET MOVIE DATABASE site we found the following info:
Helen Robinson was in
Of Human Bondage (1964) (uncredited) .... Manager-Cashier
Rasputin and the Empress (1932) (uncredited)
... aka Rasputin the Mad Monk (UK)
The Amazons (1917) .... Marchioness of Castlejordan

We don't know if this is the same woman.  The woman we are looking for
was born or raised in Peckville, PA.  Her maiden name was Helen Larder
and she married Jesse Robinson.  They had one son.

Can anyone help find more information?
