Mr. Wilson,

I'm interested in the Roberts family. I have Lucinda "Lucy" Roberts, d/o
Swimfield Roberts, and Margaret "Peggy" Lewis, married my grgrgrandfather
Abijah Sisemore. I have Jesse Roberts father was James Roberts, can you
tell me if that is right?
Do you know what area of Leslie Co. these Roberts eventually settled in?
Rockhouse area, by any chance?
I know where Abijah's family settled, I would like to know whereabouts
Swimpfield/Swimfield was. If you can help, thanks,

Pauline
