Multiple John Robinsons

I see from looking more carefully at the WP:RS, especially [1], that there are four different John Robinsons, and it appears I have accidentally combined them into one person in this article. It's unfortunate that the other WP:RS did not make a strong attempt to differentiate them, or perhaps I didn't notice that until now. Not sure how best to fix this little problem. It feels like all of them should be part of one article rather than each having their own article. However, I have never seen that in Wiki before. --David Tornheim (talk) 02:30, 14 January 2020 (UTC)

This page shows John G. Robinson as landowner in Northside and that circle had been named after him. --David Tornheim (talk) 08:49, 9 February 2020 (UTC)
