Hi Anne, trying to get started sharing with you. Let me give you my direct lineage from Alexander and Hester Marie Locke Robinson. Their youngest son Alexander and his first wife Sarah P Baylor were my 2ND great grandparents, their son John William and his wife Martha Jane Goble , their son Hobart Clay Robinson and his first wife Florence Bryant Pursell, my Dad, John Waldo
Robinson and my Mom, Mary Catherine Funkhouser, then myself and my siblings. I have birth and death info as well as children info for all of the above, but I do not share living relatives unless I have their permission. Try the personal message feature to see if we can connect through there. Maryg

Hi, I believe this family of Silas Locke maybe one I have been researching.  My 3rd great grandfather was Alexander Robinson born 1839 in Lisnaske County Fermanagh to Alexander Robinson and his wife Hester Marie Locke. Alexander was Hester's second husband. I believe her first was a Harrison. Hester was born in March 1795 in Armagh Ireland. The information I have has her father's name as William.  I have not found her mother's name. The senior Alexander died in Decenber of 1848. They  had three other sons and a daughter  that I know . They were Fredrick,  Robert Lock, Thomas , and Alice K. After her second husband died she immigrated to the US with her two youngest children Alexander Jr and Alice. The others had previously come . She came to Mt Erie Wayne County Illinois where her younger brother Francis was living. She died there 27 October 1857. I have been searching for more information on her parents and for Alexander Robinson Sr 's parents as well. Any information  on this family  is appreciated.  Thanks  Mary
