For some, this is a repeat of information. I apologize. I've found John and Eunice in the 1860 Federal Census of Hartsville, Steuben County, NY (post office Purdy Creek). This is only conjecture, but there are 3 Robinson families within 4 houses and all work with shingles, which means they could be related.

Good luck with that research! I'm still wondering about the identification of Letticia, the wife of Robert Hoge, as a Robinson. You say you got that information from this web site: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~milliken/jottings/hogg.html The way I interpret that site is that the Mrs. Robinson he's talking about is Jenny Hoge who married Alexander Robinson, and the sister Martha whose grandson inherited is Jenny Hoge's sister Martha. I might be wrong about that, but the interpretation make sense to me. Linda Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

And it all came from the same source. My family has stories about being Irish/Scots, having 8 siblings(or possibly cousins included) and coming over to America abt 1800. This DOES NOT match up with actual data found that proves we are descended from William C Robinson b 1824, a landowner, slaveholder, and physician in Jasper & Newton County Georgia. It can be shown that this William C Robinson is son of John Robinson, who was son of John Luke, who was son of Luke Robinson. In this family the names Luke, Jesse, & Martha come up a lot, as well as being healers/physicians comes up often. Our group is from the Carolinas but is in area of Newton/Jasper County GA by as early as 1800. And although our Luke is the "EKA" Earliest known ancestor for our group, he is said to have been born in the USA, probably VA, and obviously before 1800. So- although there are similarities and circumstantial evidence to connect the two families, there are also discrepancies when I try to match these two families up. Anyone else have any ideas or information that may show a connection between our Luke Robinson who married Christian Ussery then Obedience Leggett Adams--- and ---(probably 2 generations later in the same location) this physician Luke Robinson, son of Jesse I. & Elizabeth E. Robinson, who the son of Luke Robinson a baptist preacher in Henry County? All help appreciated. Thanks!

Caldwell, Publisher, 1907 And possibly her sister Martha is the same as this Martha: Martha Robinson b 1749/50 married William Bratton, d1816 GA. Bratton family tradition states that Martha Robinson/Robeson/Robertson was born on a ship bearing her parents to the American colonies from Northern Ireland. She grew up learning about herbal medicines and home health care from her Ulster=Scots elders in VA or NC. She brought that knowledge with her when she married William Bratton and moved with him to the area that would become York County in the 1760s.

Diane Men of Mark in Georgia A Complete and Elaborate History of the State from its settlement to the present time, chiefly told in biographies and auto- biographies of the most eminent men of each period of Georgia's progress and development. William J. Northen (former governor of GA) Historical Introduction by Editor John Temple Graves A. B. Caldwell, Publisher, 1907 P216 LUKE ROBINSON IT IS perhaps within the truth to say that in every town of the Southern States, prominent in the various walks of life will be found the descendants of Scotch-Irish immigrants, who, between 1650 and 1800 came to the Southern States from the old country. The sturdy Scotchmen who emigrated to the North of Ireland and then in turn after a generation or two came on to America, appear to have greatly strengthened the Scotch blood by the intermixture with the Irish. The Irish blood gave a dash of the adventurous spirit which characterized that people and which was all the solid, steady Scotchman needed to make him the ideal pioneer. It was not surprising, therefore, that in the making of all of our Southern States they cut so large a figure, and the newer States, like Tennessee, Kentucky, and Georgia owe to them an enormous debt. They were always on the front line, and to the courage of the pioneer added the solidity of the prudent and law abiding citizen. Of this stock comes Doc! tor Luke Robinson, of Covington, who, though yet a young man, stands at the head of his profession in that flourishing little city. He was born in Walton county, Georgia, on May 17, 1869, son of Doctor Jesse I. and Frances Elizabeth (Etchieson) Robinson. Luke and Jesse Robinson, the progenitors of the family in Georgia, came from Ireland about 1800. Luke was a Baptist preacher who settled in Henry county near where the town of Conyers now stands and was the recognized head of the family. His son, Jesse I. Robinson, was a physician for thirtynine years in the active practice, and served as a surgeon in the Confederate Army. Doctor Luke Robinson received his education in the common schools of the country, with a short term at Mercer University, at Macon. Having decided to follow his father-s profession he entered the medical college, at Atlanta, Georgia, and in 1893 was graduated with the degree of M.D. He began the practice of his profession that same year at Walnut Grove, Walton county, from which place he later removed to Covington, and has there built up a practice second to that of no man in his count! y. On January 17, 1894, he married Miss Emma G. Armstrong, a daughter of Captain William and Lucy Armstrong. Of this marriage there have been born five children, all living. Doctor Robinson is a communicant of the Southern Methodist Church. In politics he is a lifetime Democrat. A strong fraternalist, he is affiliated with the Masons, Knights of Pythias, Odd Fellows, and Woodmen of the World. For years past he has served as medical examiner in his county for some of the leading life insurance companies of America. His life is a record of hard work and professional success. His practice has not left him much time for outside ventures, but in church and State he has contributed such time as he could spare to the duties of citizenship. His personal character is above reproach, and both for his professional work and the integrity of his life he is esteemed one of the valuable citizens of Newton county. R. J. MASSEY.
