Personal Information    |    Sources    |    Event Map    |    All    |    PDF

  • Name Catherine Robertson 
    • 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.
