I have a reference to a Sam Finley from an article written about a David Robinson (brother of my Great-Grandmother). He stated that my Great Great grandfather, Henry Preston Robinson, (David Robinson's father) came to California during the gold rush, and settled in Siskiyou county. He returned to Ohio on a visit in the 1860's. When he returned to Siskiyou county, he brought his sister with him. The article stated that this sister married a Sam Finley. Could this be the same person you mentioned. I saw a tombstone transcription in Sawyer's bar with these names. I have been looking for Henry Preston Robinson's parents for years. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
