I am indirectly related to the John Robbie on your tree.

John's daughter Annie Robbie (1873-1959) married my great grandfather, Robert Edwin Davis.  They had 2 children, Nellie and Florence.  I also had her place of birth as Fustendjie, but I am happy to be corrected).

One day in about 1900, RE Davis walked his children to school, kissed them goodbye, and left them and Annie.  He sailed (we don't know the details) to Egypt.  Within a few months, he was married polygamously to Annetta Makrodimitris (there are many variations of the spelling of her surname).

They had three children: Harold Cromer Davis (1903-1984), Edna May Elizabeth Davis (1907-?) and Arthur Reginald Davis (1909-1936). Arthur married Marie Goldenberg, and they also had three children.  Fred (1931-2015), Jack (1934-1937) and Regina. Regina is my mother.  I would be happy to discuss this further and share information.
