    Notes:

    Name:
    Some sources say Robinson. The family seems to come from TN and VA before that. If the family name is traced back to Virginia, it may well belong to the Robinson family beginning with Christopher Robinson who, in the 1660s, settled around Urbanna in Middlesex County. This potential association is only early speculation.

    Birth:
    Catherine's death record does not name her parents but does list her birth place as Tennessee.

    This area became a part of Tennessee when it gained statehood in 1796.

    Notes:

    1/25/2011 - Marriage place is speculation based on Internet data suggesting that John and Catharine moved to KY in 1836. Marriage could have taken place in TN or VA, among other places.
