Bonnie, There was another Winifred/Wineford Robertson (in other words, two Winifred Robertsons) in Robertson Co., TN. I believe her maiden name was HOUSE and she was the widow of a Jesse Robertson. I don't know if that is how our Wiley became known as Jesse Wiley Robertson or not as there is much confusion between the two Winifreds, one being married to Wiley and the other being married to Jesse about the same time period. I do know that Wiley had a son Jesse Wiley according to Gary White of Texas, a descendant. It could be that Peter Robertson did not give anything to Wiley's children in his Will because he had already given Wiley, his son, land in Nash County, NC before Wiley sold out and went to TN. Thanks for refreshing my memory about who you are a descendant of. I'm familiar with the Stokely Robertson name as well, but don't know how he fits into the big picture. There was a Stokely A. Robertson on the 1840 Robertson Co., TN census. He could be the son of John, Wiley's brother. There's a John Robertson in the early records of Robertson Co., TN. There are other Robertsons, Ica and Darius and others, in Robertson Co., TN, which I believe is a different family of Robertsons.
