Mona Mills, May 2008:
A 1790 land record exists for David Robinson in Abbeville. His land was bounded by land owned by Matthew Robinson and John Robinson, and was located on the NW fork of Long Cane:
"I do whereby certify for David Robinson a Tract of Land containing One Hundred & Seventy-two Acres (Surveyed for him the 5th day of January 1790) Situate in the District of Ninety Six on Little River on the NoWT fork of Long Cane & hath such from marks & buttings & boundings as the above plat Represents. Give under my hand this 26th day of May 1790. F. Bremer Sn Genl. Witness: Wm Lesley, Illegible."

The accompanying plat indicated that Matthew, John and David Robinson all owned land next to each other. Other neighbors listed were Edward Giles and Danl(?) McAlister.

=> more relationships with Kerr's.

kdd: several lines of evidence suggest they were kin from Augusta Co, VA. see notes under David Roberson.
Samuel Robinson's descendants are DNA matches too.
Joseph Robbison is closest Robbison in 1790 Census Abbeville, SC
