Harmon Curtis Robinson was a 75-year-old White man from Washington County, Maine, remembered in public records as a local man with ties to Harrington and nearby Addison. Online memorial and genealogy sources list him as born in Washington County in September 1906, with later records connecting him to Harrington, a coastal community in eastern Maine.
By the summer of 1982, he was an elderly man with gray or partially gray hair, blue eyes, a height of about 5 feet 8 inches, and a weight of about 145 pounds. NamUs identifies him as Harmon Curtis Robinson and records his case as Missing Person / NamUs #MP39519.
On June 19, 1982, Harmon was last known to be in Harrington, Maine. According to the NamUs case record, he had been at a clam bake, the kind of community gathering that would have felt ordinary and familiar in a small coastal place. When the rest of the group prepared to leave, they believed Harmon would follow them in his truck. That simple assumption became the point at which the day turned from routine to alarming: when the others reached their destination, Harmon never arrived.
Concern grew quickly enough that someone went back toward the river to look for him. What they found only deepened the uncertainty. Harmon’s skiff was located, and inside it was a 12-gauge shotgun. Blood was also seen in the skiff, but Harmon himself was gone. The available public summaries do not describe a confirmed explanation for what happened in or near the boat, and they do not report that he was located. The record leaves his loved ones and the public with a painful gap: a man had attended a gathering, failed to appear where others expected him, and then evidence connected to him was found near the water without him.
At the time he disappeared, Harmon was reportedly wearing khaki pants and black socks. His case is associated with Harrington in Washington County, and NamUs lists the investigating agency as the Maine Marine Patrol, Division II, with an agency case number of MP82-1047. The Maine State Police notes that Maine’s Office of Chief Medical Examiner serves as the official state clearinghouse for missing people and that NamUs is used in Maine to help track and manage missing-person case files, which is consistent with Harmon’s continued listing in NamUs.
Publicly available information does not provide a resolved case status of alive or deceased for Harmon Robinson, and the online case materials do not give a confirmed recovery account. Some memorial and family-history pages list death or burial information, including a memorial at Gilbert Pinkham Cemetery in Harrington, but the missing-person record itself does not describe a confirmed recovery, condition of remains, or circumstances of recovery. Because of that, the most careful reading is that the public missing-person case remains centered on his last known contact in Harrington and the unanswered circumstances surrounding the skiff, the shotgun, and the blood found after he failed to arrive with the others. In overview, Harmon Curtis Robinson’s case is the unresolved story of a 75-year-old Maine man last seen after a clam bake on June 19, 1982, in Harrington, whose absence was discovered when he did not follow the group as expected, and whose skiff was later found at the river with troubling evidence inside but without Harmon.Last Seen: Jun 19, 1982
