    3. Hello! I may have nothing, but we may have some similar info. My Robinson parents were supposed to be descendants of a large Robinson family from Ireland. I dont know the fathers name for sure. I have the mothers name as Sarah (and the maiden name I have is Calhoun but I havent proven it yet) and the childrens names are listed as: Mary (possibly known as Minnie), Emma C (for Calhoun?), and Walter John, born about 1850-1857 in Georgia. The fathers name could be Walter or John if the son was named for the father-which is what we had previously believed. There is a census that has a Sarah Morgan married to a William C Robinson with a daughter named Mary born the right date-if this is them I dont know where we got the Calhoun maiden name information. The father may have been a doctor, and when he died (between 1857-1860) Sarah married his business partenr Dr A. P. Morris and moved the family to Louisiana. Sarah Robinson Morris died in 1869 and the family eventually all moved to Texas. Supposedly Dr Morris was mean to the Robinson children and Sarah sent them to Texas to live with family friends from Ireland named the Dulaneys. If there is anything useful for you in that story I hope it helped! Do you have any knowledge of your Robinson siblings? Contact me offlist if we could help each other Diane at p2willia@oakland.edu. ----- Original Message ----- From: <LisasTree@cox.net> To: <ROBINSON-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, January 29, 2006 3:17 PM Subject: [ROBINSON] Re: ROBINSON in NIR, 1700s>PA>WV > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/3cDBAIB/4471.4454 > > Message Board Post: > > Do you show a Robert Robinson anywhere in this line?
