Leo,

I have found a Robert S. Preston in Hamilton County(1830 census) near my Prestons and other surnames who were there
before moving to Mercer County.

That's all I have on him at the moment. Would certainly appreciate hearing if you have additional information on this
Robert and his activities in Mercer County.
