I didn't know about the Ottercaps incident nor that John built homes either, but I am a descendant of James Robinson of Skelton who had married Mary Brocket. They did have a number of children George, William, Anne (who died in her first year) John and James. John with his wife Martha Shepherd had eight children (including Alfred whom you mention) and James had 12, including another James from whom I am descended. Actually that third James died young of heart problems and was the only one not connected to the sea. My father and his father were both master mariners. Its some time since I did my research but I would be very interested to read any more up to date information.
