He was my direct ancestor also, and left Yorkwhire in England (near where I now live, ironically) for Virginia in about 1666. If you have any wish to explore the history of this family back to its roots in the UK, I have written it up in "The Saga of the Robinsons" obtainable from Amazon (who have to order if from the UK) or direct and most easily from http://www.ypdbooks.com/biography/504-the-saga-of-the-robinsons-YPD00471.html.
