Dear Elizabeth, I am answering your most welcomed letter on the List in hopes someone may see a familiar name, too. As everyone must know by now, I am getting desperate in my search to identify my gggrandfather William Robinson/Roberson. In your second letter, you wrote the Colemans were neighbors of the Roberson/Robinson family in Monroe County. Now, below are the Coleman names that I have in my database. My grandfather Alfred Bennett Roberson, grandson of William Robinson, married first MARTHA ELIZABETH CANTERBERRY. I have been told they were living in Wilcox County at the time. My families seemed to have moved around in Wilcox, Conecuh, Butler and Monroe Counties, so perhaps these Colemans are related. Martha Elizabeth Canterberry's sister Amanda Jane Canterberry married Thomas Livingston Coleman. See info below. Can you connect Thomas Livingston Coleman to your Colemans? I would really like to see the info that you said you have on William B. with Liddy. Do you have his parents' names? Did the "B" stand for Bennett? I was told that my William Robinson had married Elizabeth BONNER, but I am beginning to think the Bonner is a mistake...it could have been MANNING. Thank you so much for writing. I couldn't get back to you last night.
