Robinson Genealogy

This is the ancestor I started with in figuring who must be Abiathar's father.  Through him I have landed in Meppershall, England, matching my DNA match's findings of having Meppershall as our origin in England. "Meppershall is a hilltop village in Bedfordshire near Shefford,Campton, Shillington, Stondon and surrounded by farmland. The Village and the Manor House are mentioned in the Domesday Book in 1086."

There is a wonderful book that I procured through the library loan program about the History of Royalton, Vermont with all the genealogy in it.  I was able to have the book for 3 weeks or a month a long time ago, and found it very hard to follow, but did the best I could in understanding her genealogy.  Written by Lovejoy, it holds a lot besides Robinsons.
                                                                     
Abiathar Smith Robinson was born in December 1829.  I know this from the 1870 census as he wasn't even on the 1850 or 1860. However,  I found him marrying Julia Ann Tuller on February 29, 1852 in Tunbridge, Orange, Vermont.  Then I didn't see him until the 1870, 1880 and 1900 censuses when he was in Wenona, Marshall, Illinois with Julia Ann and living near Albert Tuller, her brother and his family.  Evidently they traveled there together. He and his family were in Canada during the Civil War and returned to Illinois after it was over.  I do not know why.  Another researcher found them living there.
                                                                               
My grandfather, Frank Hugh Robinson, left home from around age 16 or older as he was mad at his dad for not allowing him to move his horse out of the pasture on a Sunday.  A bull was in the field and he was afraid his horse would get gored and killed.  It may have happened because he left home and never returned.  He loved his horses.
                                                                     
 Later, he became a teamster with a team of 4 horses in Portland, Oregon .  He saw and met Nathan Abraham Goldfoot, my father's father before any marriage, and Nathan had a time managing his one horse and wagon.  This was evidently a new experience for him, an immigrant from Lithuania via England and Ireland.  He was working the same area as Abiathar. In 1912, Nathan was thrown out of his wagon by his spooked horse, hit his head and wound up in St. Vincent's hospital, but never woke.  He died shortly.
                                                                   
                                            Royalton, Windsor, Vermont

1. I start out with Abiathar's father being Amos Robinson born in 1797 in Royalton, Windsor, Vermont.
2. His father could have been Amos Robinson born in 1767 in Lebanon, New London, Connecticut
3. His father was Amos Robinson born in 1734 born in Lunenburg, Worcester, Massachusetts
4. His father was Amos Robinson born in 1711 born in Topsfield, Essex, Massachusetts
5. His father was Jacob Robinson born in 1680 in Topsfield, Essex, Massachusetts
6. His father was John Robinson born in 1641 in Haverhill, Essex, Massachusetts
7.  His father was John Robinson born in 1611 in Meppershall, Bedfordshire, England

Why Abiathar hasn't been on any paper trail to his birth is beyond me, but evidently all births may not happen in a place where it is easily recorded.

Waiting for familyfinder results.  They have to redo the test; status should be available by Nov 19th I hope.  
Update 11/13/14 Reminded that another from this line had #393 allele as a 13, so this is the wrong tree.  
Update 11/13/14 Ran into information on my own blog about a Daniel Robinson with family's testing showing #393 allele is a 12.  He was born in 1627 in Scotland and lived in New haven CT.  He married Hope Potter.  His parents were Richard and Mary.  http://robbins.wikispot.org/Daniel_Robins_(1627-1714)
I'll have to check into this.
