Notes on William Ro.
I believe there were two William Robinsons from Virginia in the late 1700's -- one who ended up in Ohio and the other (who married Mary Lowe) who died in Viriginia. There is a lot of conflicting data on this line and I'm not going to add to the
confusion.
Sandra Quinn: William Robinson came from England after the war of the Revolution to Loudon and Fauquier County, VA. He was married, owned land and was buried in Virginia. He was a Baptist minister and was married to Mary Lowe, who was Scotch.
To this union the following children were born: Aaron, born March 31, 1799, died Oct. 24, 1839, married to Susan Bolin, born Sept. 12, 1804 , who died May 19th, 1884. Moses, Elijah, Elias, Jesse who married Sarah Bolin; John who married Lydia;
Judith and William. William died unmarried.

William Robinson/Robison PA & VA Line S7391, soldier was born 8-2-1748 in Bucke Co PA and moved to London Co. VA then to Fayette Co PA then to Mason Co. Kentucky then to Clinton Co. OH. In Sept. ( I believe there must be a typographical error
as to the birthdate of William Robinson in this Rev.War soldier Pension book because he would be to old to have had his children in the 1890's).
1833 John Robinson made affidavit 9-1833 in Clinton County, Ohio, said father moved in 1812 to OH and in 1821 the son was a married man. From Volume 3 of Rev. War Pension Files.
This is the information found at the Ohio University Library about William Robinson and Mary Lowe. Also, I was told that their marriage record is in Fauquier county, Virginia and that they married on 3-13-1790, and John (their son) was born in
1794 according to census records and his death record in Athens county, Ohio.
