Andrew was back living with his father in 1911 so the Margaret & Eliza mentioned in 1901 would HAVE to be Robert Sr sisters . . .

Does this make Robert Sr a Rallagh man born & bred ???

@GRob81, I think Tara also asked earlier, what brought you to focus on and/or believe that Robert's father was a David, when no name is mentioned on Robert's marriage?

Was it oral family history, handed down over the years, or is there any written source (official record or otherwise), for it?

Just to keep all possibilities open at moment, have you given any consideration to Robert having been born to an unmarried Robinson (or otherwise), female?

Didn't Robert senior die in 1906 though?

IF I am correct in thinking that Robert was a Rallagh man then this would be his mother Elizabeth's death in 1877 in Rallagh.

I should have also stated that Robert Jr moved back in with his family by 1911

Hi Again,

So I presume that you are 100% sure that Robert Robinson in Rallegh in 1901 is your Great Grandfather . . .

That would lead to the presumption that Robert Robinson marrying Ellen Smith is 100% correct . . .

This leads to the fact that Robert Robinson states that in 1881 his father was deceased . . . I am a little concerned here that there is no father's name listed and I'm really hoping that his father WAS actually David . . .

Working on this presumption for now . . .

It concludes that the David Robinson that died in 1883 can NOT be his father . . .

Which would lead to the presumption that David Robinson that died in 1877 in Tullintrain would HAVE to be his father . . .

This is where it gets trickier . . .

What has you connecting your family line back to Tullintrain OR Binn ?

Was it something you were told or do you have something actually tying Robert back to either of these townlands ?

Sorry for all the questions, I just don't want you going down the wrong path 😁

Tara


Hi Tara

My Dad knows first hand of his connections to Rallagh and Tullentrain. He refers to his Uncle Johnny having a farm at Tullentrain.
To be fair the "Binn" name didn't mean anything to him and maybe that was me going off in a tangent and have possibly gone down the wrong track.
That said with a large family they most probably are connected
