James Randolph Robertson, "Father of Tennessee", is one of those benchmark personalities from whom relationship is specified, known or conjectured. He is such a well-known personality that I expected to find a webpage in his honor. There was none. So I have begun one. You will find it at http://www.shelby.net/jr/robertsn/genjames.htm This page contains everything I have been able to find on the Internet relating to Gen. James Randolph Robertson. It includes ref's to those with whom he was associated. It contains a number of historical pages regarding his considerable contributions. You will find listings of his descendents, or gedcoms of same. There are traditional versions of his ancestry as well as new findings that provide documentations for significant revisions to his lineage. There are at least 3 different versions of his ancestry. It is not the function of this page to declare winners; it *is* its purpose to let you know what variations exist and to encourage collaboration. Divergent viewpoints are welcome. Links backward from this page lead to copious ROBERTSON material. Suggestions for additional links for this page are appreciated. Links to this page are also helpful.
