Robarts and Quartermans

["W. Hugh Tucker" <htucker@stny.rr.com>]

I have finally found someone who would look up the Robarts chapter in Anne
Elizabeth Miller's "Our Family Circle". While it did not help me with my
Shepard research, it did provide some information that might be interesting
to this list:: This information was provided by Lilla Livingstone Brumby of
Ocala, FL and may include information from sources other than Our Family
Circle (pp.195-199).
