Hi, all- I've posted this to Perry Co., but since Juniata is so close, and since some members of the following families moved to Juniata, I'll post it here as well. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ My 4-Great-Grandfather was George ROBISON, born ca. 1727 [maybe] in Coleraine, Ulster, Northern Ireland. He came to the U.S. in the mid-1700's [we surmise] and settled in Tyrone Twp., near Roseburg, Cumberland Co. PA. [the area is now part of Saville or perhaps Tuscarora Twp. in Perry Co.] His wife is unknown, but she may have been Elizabeth. George died in Perry Co. ca 1798, we are told. They had six children: =Thomas, b. 1764, d. 1852; m. (1) 1/13/1789 Agnes McMILLEN; m. (2) Nancy ELLIOTT; (3 children, including Jane who married a George SANDERSON) =Robert, b. 1767, d. 1834; see below =Margaret, b. ?, d. 1843?; m. 8/7/1789 to Alexander SANDERSON =Nancy, b. 1770, d. 1843; =Mary, b. ? d. ?; m. 6/25/1793 to William ROBINSON (five children?) =Elizabeth, b. ? d. ? m. William SANDERSON (William SANDERSON and Alexander SANDERSON above were first cousins. George SANDERSON above was a nephew of Alexander SANDERSON) The above may not necessarily be correct in all details. I'm pretty sure my George is not *Capt. George* Robison, nor the proprieter of *Robinson's Fort*. There are three George Robi(n)sons that I know of in Perry/Cumberland Co., but none have the same children as those listed above. This is my major roadblock. The George of Robinson's Fort was apparently also born in 1727, d. 1814, so these dates may be suspect for my George. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ My 3-Great-Grandfather was Robert ROBISON, born ca.1767 in Tyrone [later Saville] Twp, Perry Co. PA, died Dec 1834 in/near the *Raccoon Valley* of Perry Co. PA. He married Susanna, dau. of William GRAHAM. They had 8 children: =George, b. 1792, d. 1875 m. Jane Margaretta GRAHAM (served in the War of 1812, was known as *Major* George but was only a private or corporal. Bur. Centre Presbyterian Cemetery near Loysville) =Robert, b. 1793, d. 1880; married Catherina HENCH =William, b. 1795, d. 1876; m. Christina ZIEGLER =Jane, b. 1796, d. 1851; never married; =John M., b. 1797, d. 1867; see below =Thomas, b. 1798, d. 1845; never married; =David Elliott, b. 1800, d. 1864; m. (1) Mary CASSETTE; m. (2) Rose Ann WALKUP (five children w/each) =Sidney, b. 1802, d. 1872; never married There is sufficient evidence to make me confident in the accuracy of the above generation. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ My Great-Great-Grandfather was John M. ROBISON, born 3/3/1797 in Tyrone Twp. Perry Co. PA.; m. ca 1820 to Jane R. BAXTER. John and Jane moved to Crawford Co. Ohio in 1837. John died 8/15/1867, and Jane died 5/18/1857. Both are buried in the Goodwill Cemetery, S.E. of Waynesburg, Crawford Co. Ohio. They had 9 children. The youngest was my Great-Grandfather John R. ROBISON. Jane Baxter's father was a Jonathan BAXTER, who operated a Tannery near Roseburg, PA, we are told, though there seems to be no record of Jonathan Baxter with a daughter Jane who fits the time frame. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Any help with these Robisons, Sandersons, and Baxters will be deeply appreciated. Thanks. Tom Robison Ossian, Indiana tcrobi@adamswells.com Never forget the importance of history. To know nothing of what happened before you took your place on earth, is to remain a child forever.
