I am still searching for any connections to the following Robinson family of
Alabama.
Descendants of Matthew Robinson - I have no documentation that his name was
Matthew - only the "M" from the census listed below. Family lore indicates
his name was Matthew. This could be incorrect. Does anyone recognize this
family line? Thanks so much for any help. I have been unable to locate any
earlier relatives. Deborah Eaton
