I haven't tried that site before but will give it a go. I have alot more info that I haven't entered onto this site but have on another. I should get it all on here really. What was it with handing down names, there are about 8 genereations of Daniel Robinson's in that line, can get very confusing!

Thanks for your help Lorraine,

Joanne

Any information greatly recieved, have hit a dead end as he emigrated to USA after his wife Martha (nee Rosemergey) died in childbirth in 1889. Below is the info I have for him, am curious to see what became of him after this time, and if there is any truth in what my Grandma had told me.

Born; Daniel Robinson abt 1859 Runswick, Yorks
Married: Martha Rosemergey abt 1879 She was born abt 1861 in Cornwall.

Have census records for them from 1861-1881, last address was 50 Main Street, Skinningrove, Yorks. In 1881, he had 1 child Hannah M. After Martha died Daniel put his children apart from Hannah into Guisborough Workhouse when he emigrated to USA. I believe it was Utah he went to. In the 1891 census i found a Margaret 8, Alice 7, William 6, John Thomas 5 and a Beatrice 4. Beatrice Robinson was my Great Grandma.

If anyone can help, great or if you have another connection to my family maybe we can exchange info.

Thanks for reading...

Joanne
