SOME EARLY ROBBINS GENERATIONS IN THE UNITED STATES:
July 5, 2005: "The information in this posting has been excerpted from the ROBBINS JOURNAL, Vol. I, No. 1, July 1989, pp. 1 - 5. The Journal was edited by Kevin K. Mittge, a Robbins family historian, archivist, librarian, and published genealogist. The Journal is now defunct."

Donna Forney Clark: At this point, I have included only part of the previous posting of this excerpted article.

Within this article
"Introduction To The Robbins Family History, by Kevin K. Mittge.

Kevin K. Mittge writes:

“I am grateful for information provided by Marvin Robbins, Ocala, FL; Mary Kate Horner, Lebanon, IN; and Margaret Davis, Yakima, WA; and many others who have worked and are still working on this topic.”

Kevin writes that the following information has been suggested.

(There are several paragraphs between Kevin’s acknowledgments and the following information.)

Jacob Robbins (I) was born about 1738 and it is suggested he died about 1830 in Jennings Co., Indiana. He married to Mary, who was possibly of the Wells family. Jacob and Mary are believed to be the parents of William, Absalom, Jacob (II), James, Mary, Martha (called Massey), and Margaret.

Absalom Robbins, the second son of Jacob and Mary, was married to Mary Ogle shortly after arriving in Virginia.
