Benjamin first appears in Halifax county, Va., in 1765, witnessing a deed. He then proceeds to purchase land on Wynn's creek, amassing a large number of acres over the years. He died in 1803. In his will he names his wife: Wilmouth Irby, daughter of Anthony Irby and 3 sons: William, John Robins, and Thomas plus 3 daughters: Caty Miller, Sally and Chloe Irby ( Chloe Irby married Hopkins Nowlin in Pittsylvania county circa 1817). John Robins Hall married Sally Hurt the daughter of Philemon Hurt ( Baptist minister and Rev. war soldier). This family with their children moved to Carroll county, Tn. circa 1835. Is anyone working on this family line? Benjamin seems to be one of those who drop out of the sky. I need his place of residence before Halifax, his marriage date and county where marriage was solemnized. All clues and help greatly appreciated. Grace Hall Upshaw
