The article on
Mount Robson says that the mountain was not named for
John Robson as one might have guessed but, even so, if it was named for Robertson, it would seem odd to call it Robson. Does anyone have a source that would help with this? --

KenWalker: sixteen years later, but I found a cite, from the Canadian Encyclopedia article on Mount Robson. Still seems a bit speculative, but this article says "is likely named for him", so I think the cite supports the statement.
