Olmsted family: Darius Olmsted (my maternal gggg-grandfather) and wife, Electa Sornberger Olmsted Robinson family: Moses Robinson Alldredge (is this the same Moses Robinson as the early settler who joined Passon/Parson in 1838? Passon's wife(name unknown) was a sister of the Robinson's (I presume this was Moses and Moody) Thanks for any help, it is appreciated.
