This Robertson line is on my husbands maternal side where he descends from the Stalcup family in Fairfax County, VA. Below is the Register Report on James Robertson and Elizabeth Bowmaker Robertson from my Family Tree file (created a report and put it in TXT format). I hope you can read it. This is all the information I have, but have not entered the information from his will which was sent on this message board in Sep 2007. I would be happy to receive any further information you have on the Birch family. Robertson - Bowmaker - Birch FTM Register Report from Virginia R Robertson, March 10, 2008 Generation 1 1.
