Mary, Someone in CA sent me your post re the Robertsons. I am not related to the Robertson family as far as I know--yet. However, Charles S. Robertson was a 30 year old attorney in Savannah, Hardin Co., TN when the late war started in 1861. In 1860, he was living with his wife, Elizabeth, 22, born in MS, and sons Alexander, 2 and Robert 11 months, both born in TN. Charles became the first Capt. of "G" Co., First Confederate Cavalry Regiment, and was later promoted to Lt. Col. and was probably the highest ranking Confederate Officer who enlisted from Hardin Co. He was captured at Shelbyville in 1863 and sent to Camp Douglas IL by Dec. of that year. I loose track of Charles after that date. Would this be the same Charles S. Robertson that lived in Hardeman Co, TN? Thanks Neighbor, David ------------------------------------------- Subject: Robertson of Hardin and Hardeman Co. Date: Wed, 13 May 1998 08:49:09 -0500 From: "Mary F. Foust" <mfoust@mail.mem.bellsouth.net> To: bartnash@swbell.net Dear Tom; I am related to the Robertsons in Hardeman County and my cousin is related to the Robertsons in Hardin County. Do you know any connection that will link these two families? My gr grandmother was Naomi Elizabeth Robertson who married a Gurley. Her father was Theopilis Robertson who was the son of Charles Robertson who was the son o George Robertson who was the son of Charles Robertson. It keeps going back and I have more but my cousin who also the grandaughter of Naomi Elizabeth Robertson is also grandaughter of Marion Robertson who is listed on the data for Hardin County. We don't know the Relationship between these two Robertson families. I have a lot of datafrom a man in Mississippi on my Robertson family but it is still confusing because my own gr grandmother Naomi Elizabeth who married the Gurley called her own mother in law cousin Fannie (Her name was Frances Robertson who married a Gurley) There is a Charles S. Robertson in my family. Do you think we are connected to your data? Write me. I live in Hardeman county near Saulsbury TN. my email is mfoust@bellsouth.net Thanks Mary F. Foust tel 901-764-6851 or 901-764-3121 I hope this query makes sense.
