Hello Jennifer, I looked at a couple of census records to try and find info on the people in your letter, below. In 1870, in Wayne Co., MI, Detroit, I found the following entry: Robinson, Cornelius age 36 born NY Robinson, Kathe age 16 born MI Robinson, Louise age 14 born MI Robinson, Jennie age 10 born MI Robinson, Mary age 8 born MI Robinson, Charles age 6 born MI Robinson, Lucy age 75 born NH Now I realize that Jennie was supposed to have been born in 1869, and the Jennie above was born ten years earlier, but I think the family is worth a second thought. Charles is the right age, sort of. Father's birthplace is right, and the county is the same as in 1900.

I have all kinds of information on Stephen but barely anything on Jennie she is my great grandmother and my mother has been searching for years for anything on her, the little we have found is that she had a brother Charles b. Feb 1858 in Wisconsin, married to a Sarah Brown b. Jan 1859 in Canada, and that her mothers name was Cornelia/Codelia Lowe b. Apr 1836 in Mich, (spelled both ways on 2 different census's when she is living with either Charles or Jennie). I also know by the census in 1910 that at the time she stated haveing 5 children 3 still living, I know Jennie and Charles..who is the 3rd? Who was their father? Other than he was born in N.Y. I know nothing. What was Cornelia's maiden name? What is the name of the Lowe that Cornelia married? The nice hmmmm here is that in 1880 mich census Stephen Allison is working on a Coonrod L. Lowe f! ar! > m is there a connection here? > If anyone has any information it would sure be appreciated. Thank y ou.
