This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Robb, McClure, Buckner Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Zi.2ADE/1408.1 Message Board Post: A son of John W. Robb, Matthew Robb, married a daughter of Thomas McClure by the name of Mary or Polly McClure. The McClures and the Robbs lived in and around Stewartsville in Robb Township, Posey County, Indiana. In the same general area, but across the county line into Gibson County, Indiana, a son and two daughters of Thomas McClure married into the Buckner family. Matthew Robb, Thomas McClure and his family, and the Buckners and their families all moved after the 1820 census into Illinois. I am interested in connecting with someone who has further information about these families. Also I need to know the name of the township in Gibson County that would be directly across the Posey County line from Stewartsville. I would appreciate any help very much. Thanks. Jeanine
Do you have dates for any of these folks? I show John W Robb b. 23 Oct 1816 d. 11 Apr 1894 m. 20 Jul 1844 Mary W Montgomery. The 1886 History of Posey County by Goodspeed list 11 children for them, but no Matthew. John has a brother Mathew b. 15 July 1801 m. 29 Jul 1822 Mary McClure. They are sons of Thomas Robb Sr. and Lydia Ann Waller. John and his wife a buried in Posey co but I do not find Mathew so he may have left the area. Montgomery Twp is the Gibson Co area nearest Stewartsville.
