Author: JudyRobinson170 Surnames: Robinson Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.robinson/9641.3/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I believe you might be connected to our Robinsons. Our DNA test with freshly arrived results makes me believe so. I know of two James generations preceded by a John generation in a Robinson line, yet I am missing a link to connect to them by records in spite of the positive DNA connection. My third great grandfather, Stephen Robinson, was born in 1768 and died in Licking County, Ohio in 1840. I have always been told that his father died when Stephen was a boy and that Stephen was "probably" but not positively born in Hardy County, Virginia. That land later became part of West Virginia. The word "probably" makes me wonder whether he was born in Virginia, another state, or in Great Britain somewhere. Stephen married Sally (Sallie) Oldaker or Oldacre or Oldecker of Virginia. If you have any information that could help us find the parentage of Stephen Robinson b. 1768, I would be especially interested. I have had a response from another site stating that there was a Jam! es who was a mail carrier. I cannot remember the years. His son also was a mail carrier, and one of them was a yoeman. Because of your information, I will also check the Charleston, SC arrivals and Western Yorkshire as a possiblility for Stephen's birth. Do you know who your James Robinson married? If we put enough information together, something might connect. Then eventually, we might be searching for the same people. I have a list of Robinsons from indexes of books in Virginia from a genealogical society to check. Because of your name, the arrival date, and the place, I will see if I can find more from that to lead me to Stephen and then back from there. Thank you so much. Sometimes a question can lead to the finding of important facts to connect for more information. I hope you find what you are looking for. If your James is our connection, then our Stephen might have come to America when he was about two years old. Do you know if James was married when he cam! e to America and is so,to whom? Thank you very much for sharing your earliest knowledge. It might be the very key we need! If I learn anything helpful for you, I will let you know. Your James would be the right age to have been Stephen's father I believe, and it would be within the 6 generations from mine as proved by DNA!

He is our "brick wall". There are numerous people who were born around this time frame with the name Edwin Robinson and with varying middle initials. Many people get it right when doing their research, but I am appalled at the number of people who will grab research for a person with the same or similar name and that someone else has done and make that person theirs and not check their facts. One example is that someone has hijacked our Edwin S Robinson and put him into a family in VA. this myth is being copied by many people and it causes problems down the line. My aunts and a cousin and I have done a lot of travel to cemeteries and record offices where he lived trying to provide our family with as correct a genealogy record as we can and when we do we document what we find. If we go in the wrong direction, we correct our mistakes. This is not happening in many cases and I believe future generations will have a harder time when they see those errors in their own genealogy. Please correct your mistakes, check your facts, and do your research. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

I'd not been able to find anything questioning that connection, and yet it seemed suspicious. It appears the most honest entry at this point then would be "unknown." As to having had Robinson as Elizabeth's last name, I was under the misconception, following a number of others, that her maiden namd was Robinson, daugher of William and Elizabith Tully Robinson. But yesterday afternoon I finally found a will for William Robinson which made it clear his daughter Elizabeth married a Dr. George Smith, and she is repeatedly referred to as "my daughter Elizabeth Smith." Accordingly I've eliminated all that preceded her and had just finished making her "Elizabeth Unknown" when I got the posting about your response. I'm relatively new to this, but am learning to give close scrutiny to existing trees. Some kind of corroborating evidence is vastly preferred of course. I find a surprising number of obvious errors, but the ones that don't look wrong on their face can still be in error. It sound like we should look into the book "Ancestors along the James." We have other ancestors in the area. Thanks again, Paul Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
