Surnames: ROBINSON Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/3cDBAIB/2876.1 Message Board Post: Hi Daphne, I am working on the Robinsons, namely a Stowell S. Robinson who could possibly be Simeon Stowell Robinson born abt. 1816 in New York. Simeon and Stella are the parents of James H. Robinson born 1841 NY see (1860 Census Lapeer, MI & 1850 Richford, Tioga, NY). James married Attarista--their children are on the 1880 census for Oregon, Lapeer, Michigan: Stowell D/O; Gracie; Sidney J.; John H.; and Francis E. STOWELL S. ROBINSON b. 1816 in CT is listed as J. H. Robinson's father on the 1880 census. I don't know if you have this information on these particular Robinson's, but can you confirm whether Simeon Robinson is Stowell S. Robinson or not? I would like to know your sources for Simeon's siblings and parents. I am at a dead end with Simeon and then I am not completely sure he is the man I need to trace. I am connected to a Robinson family of Michigan through marriage to my cousin and I have just begun to help them on their Robinson line. Thanks so much, Linda
