    Died:
    The widely quoted death date of 25 June 1850 is clearly incorrect. Joseph was alive on the 3rd of August, 1850 and was enumerated that date on the 1850 Census living in Breathitt County, Kentucky along with his wife, father-in-law, Stephen Hogg Sr, and many other close family members in other homes enumerated on the same census page.

    Buried:
    Note the incorrect death date on this stone that was placed at a later date. Joseph was still alive in August of 1850; see census image linked on this page.

    Other Events:

    • Residence: 3 Aug 1850, Breathitt County, Kentucky

    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.
