notes

From http://www.robertson-ancestry.com/1226-01.htm

Mrs. Bond then states that [1226] Mark Robertson's will mentions "his children [12273] Charity Robertson who married - - - Johnson, [12271] Mary Robertson, and [12272] Elizabeth Robertson." This is erroneous. His will mentions "my sister [1227] Ann Cockrill's three daughters, viz: [12271] Mary, [12272] Elizabeth, and [12273] Charity Johnson" and does not mention any children of [1226] Mark Robertson, thus creating the presumption that he then

There is no provision for adding her previous marriage to Nehemiah Courtney or birth of my ancestor Anne Courtney. .. If she were added or I had a way to add her, I could take this line all the way to me, adding cousins and siblings on the way.. This is the worst program I ever tried to use to add onto. I spent an hour adding 4 generations of fathers' s names on one line. I would LIKE TO add onto the rest of this tree as I find more ancestors but am not sure this procedure is worth messing with.
