ROBINSON
GENEALOGY

The Robinson family lived in Troy, Bradford County, PA at the time of the
Civil War.  Sons, Clinton and Myron were born in Tompkins County, NY and
refer to family living in California, a hamlet in near Dryden, NY.  We believe the
father to be related to Lydia Robison, daughter of Ebenezer Robison and
Lydia Van Der Mark. We have letters written by Clinton D. Robinson,
Myron S. Robinson, and Helen Robinson. The letters refer to Harriet Deuel
as cousin.
