Reverend John Robinson and Pilgrims
Reverend John Robinson's son Isaac was the first Robinson to arrive in New England as far as I can determine. His father had sent the Pilgrims here from Holland, but John died there before he could come. His son Isaac came over, and our tree is connected to him.
It's possible that Abiathar is connected to this group of Robinsons as the oral history was that his people came over not on the Mayflower but the next ship over. That's about true for Isaac. It could also be that Grandfather Frank Hugh had heard about Isaac and had surmised that that was his family, too. I think, though, that this was a family history story.
Also dating way back is George Robinson b; 1626 and his wife, Joanna Ingraham. Thomas Hatch b: 1598 and son Jonathan Hatch seems to be the first Hatches which we also have on our tree.
