Robinson's Pember Line Intermingling with Tuller and Hyde, Durkee
Windsor County. Royalton, Vermont is where Julia Ann Tuller lived in 1850 when 15 years old. I hoped to find Abiathar listed in this county, too. Nope.
http://www.genealogytrails.com/ver/windsor/1891old_families.html . I started checking all the surnames with names already in my Family Tree Maker in my computer. It seemed that most all the names in the article were in my Robinson tree, though not all the people mentioned, of course. These were the common surnames of that area and period . I was surprised that I had some of the Pembers. I had even forgotten that I had had that surname in there. I checked that surname and
found I had several on my tree. What a surprise.
I found that from Elijah Pember born 1729 in Connecticut and wife, Hannah Cross, came Sophronia
Pember.
1 Sophronia Pember b: December 25, 1788 in Randolph, Orange, Vermont d: Aft. August 1870 in Stowe, Lamoille, Vermont
.. +JOHN R. ROBINSON b: November 18, 1797 in Strafford, Orange, Vermont d: April 30, 1852 in Newbury, Orange, Vermont. This could be THE John Robinson who was on the 1850 census with the Tuller family in Royalton AND could be the father of Abiathar! That John Robinson said he was 51 years old on the 1850 census. Knowing how people were not always exact, the date of 1797 is very close to what I've been looking for, 1799 and a JOHN ROBINSON. Hmmm.
This is a sheer accident, but THIS John R. Robinson happens to be one of the siblings of a Robinson
line I thought could be THE father I've been looking for because one of his children I had listed
was Ebenezer Ganung Robinson, told to me by a DNA connection to our Robinson line who is my
3rd cousin. We've been working on this for years. We know we are connected, but couldn't find
a true connection because of my lack of knowledge about Abiathar's parents. After saying for years
that EUREKA! This Robinson is the father, I now feel that I indeed have found his parents after
all.
I checked and found that this John Robinson's father was Zadock R b: 1763, and his father was Daniel
R. b: 1734 in Massachusetts. His father was Ebenezer R and wife Elizabeth Reed(on Pember's tree)
b: 1697. His father was Samuel George R in 1654 Massachusetts and his father was George R. born
in 1626 in Scotland! This does fit the DNA of my 1st cousin K. Robinson whose Y haplogroup is
R-L21 which used to be called R1b1a2a1a1b4. Also, with my geneology findings, I had found that
Ann Hyde had led to today's royal family of England.
ANNE HYDE b: March 22, 1637/38 in Cranbourne Lodge, Windsor in Berkshire,Windsor,
England d: April 10, 1671 in London, England Occupation: Maid of Honor to
Mary, Princess Royal .. +King James, II, Duke of York and VII b: October 14, 1633 in St. James Palace,
London, England d: September 16, 1701 in St. Germain-en-Laye, France
1 John Pember, Sr. b: April 12, 1696 in New London, Connecticut d: January 26, 1782 in Norwich, New London, Connecticut
.. +Mary Hyde b: February 21, 1697/98 in Norwich, New London County, Connecticut d: April 17, 1782 in Norwich, New London, Connecticut .
Mary Hyde is my 5th great grandmother. Hyde is the surname that leads our family to the Royal
kings and queens.
I found Thomas Pember was a victim in the Royalton, Vermont Indian raid on October 16, 1780

Julia Ann Tuller is my mother's grandmother. Her mother was Asenath Durkee, below.
Durkee is a huge line of people in New England and beyond. They even have their own bulletins for
genealogy. (Society of Genealogy of Durkee, Inc, in Long Beach, CA. )Bernice B. Gunderson
helped me figure out who Alonzo's parents were.

Mr. Robert Havens' son, Daniel Havens, was entertaining his friend,
Thomas Pember,
and they were in the house, and made their appearance at the door a little before
the Indians came up. Tom had been there because he was interested in Daniel's sister.
They saw the Indians and ran for their lives. Daniel Havens made his escape by throwing himself
over a hedge fence down the bank of the branch and crawling under a log, with Indians passing
directly over it. They pursued Thomas Pember till they came so near near as to throw a spear at him,
which pierced his body and put an end to his existence. He ran some time, however, after he was
wounded, till by loss of blood he fainted, fell, and was unable to proceed farther. The Indians came
upon him and thrust a spear through his body, took off his scalp, and left him as food for worms.
The house of Mr. Havens became the Indians' central meeting house. Then they killed young
Elias Button. After killing Pember and Button and taking plunder, they went to another house, that of
Joseph Kneeland.
Thomas was interred in Hutchinson's private lot on Wells Farm in S. Tunbridge, but headstones
were removed by Orison Foster and land was cultivated. Part of a series of raids designed
to terrorize frontier settlements, the Oct. 16, 1780 raid on settlements along the White River
and its First Branch resulted in the destruction of dozens of log huts, and of the crops
and livestock necessary to survive the coming winter. Although women and girls were not harmed,
28 men and boys were taken captive and taken to Canada, along with plundered valuables.
Four settlers were killed.
We had Durkee ancestors taken to Canada. Timothy Durkee was one who suffered through
the burning of Royalton, and is a good example of how the early New England families spread to the
rest of the USA. The Indians had left the house and barn in flames of General Stevens because they
heard the alarm by Mr. Havens, and went up the river to Timothy Durkee's house where they took his
two boys prisoners, Adan and Andrew, and carried Adan to Canada, who died there in prison.
Descendants of Timothy Lewis Durkee, Lieut. These 3 Durkee boys would be my mother's 3rd
ggranduncles. 1 [1] Timothy Lewis Durkee, Lieut. b: May 01, 1737 in Woodberry, Litchfield County,

Four children taken by Indians as captives. Aden died in captivity by the Indians at Montreal.
He and his brother, Sheldon Durkee, were among the prisoners during the burning of Royalton,
Vermont, 10/16/1780 under the command of a British Officer. Sheldon was released.

.. +Sarah Jones b: Abt. 1771 d: December 21, 1853 in Vermont
Sheldon was 9 when he was captured by the Indians.
Edward "Rix" Robinson b: November 1852 in Vermont d: 1922 in Illinois Occupation: 1880 Teamster
..
Whew! I'm so glad I was driven to work on Pember and did indeed bump into THE Robinson I've been looking for all these years. Let's hope, anyway. It's looking good to be true. Heh, heh, heh,
I just double checked and found that once when talking to my DNA cousin, I had decided upon these
very parents to be THE ONES. Then I wasn't really sure. I have the same parents listed twice now
as his parents.
Update: google turned up a Pember of note: George Hawkins Pember, known as G. H. Pember, was an English theologian and author who was affiliated with the Plymouth Brethren.Wikipedia

Our Robinson's Tuller-Tullar Line From Simsbury, Hartford, Connecticut to Vermont and More
Above is a picture from TULLAR SCHOOL in St. Albans, 1886. The Tullar School was a one-room schoolhouse that stood at the corner of Lower Newton Road and the Kellogg Road. At the moment we don’t know exactly when the school was built, but the lot was cleared in the fall of 1964. Collins and Dunsmore children are in this pictures. I don't know about any Robinson or Tuller/Tullars in there.
Abiathar Smith Robinson's wife was Julia Ann Tuller b: 1834 in Royalton, Vermont. They would be my great grandparents.
St. Albans, Franklin, Vermont in the 1920s-1930s from the looks of the cars |
Her father was Alonzo Charles Tuller b: 1809 in St. Albans, Franklin County, Vermont. He died in Rockwell, LaSalle, Illinois, and Abiathar and Julia Ann had settled in Wenona, Marshall, Illinois.
South Royalton, Vermont, Autumn and Winter so picturesque. |
In 1780, Royalton suffered from a large scale Indian attack. Relatives were involved. The book: History of Royalton by Evelyn Lovejoy tells a lot about Royalton. I had read it as a library inter-loan. It's in Vermont. "Garner Rix was about 12 years old when he moved with his father, pregnant mother, two sisters and three brothers from a farm in Connecticut to a log cabin on the banks of the White River, a place that would one day be called Royalton, Vermont.
ROYALTON FROM NEW YORK TO VERMONT
On December 20, 1781, by an act of the Vermont Legislature, the town was granted and chartered to Comfort Seaver and his associates. The petition for the charter list the petitioners, the actual settlers who had acquired there land under New York, who were as follows: Comfort Seaver, Elias Stevens, John Kent, Elias Kent Jr., John Hibbard, James Hibbard, Jedediah Hide (Hyde), Ebenezer Dewey, Ebenezer Church, Nathan Fish, John Safford, Benjamin Parkhurst, Simon Shepard, Reuben Parkhurst, Daniel Gilbert, Daniel Ricks(Rix), John Kimball, Garner Ricks, Ebenezer Parkhurst, David Fish, David Brewster, Robert Havens, William Blackmer, Herman Durkee, Ebenezer Brewster, Medad Benton, Nathaniel Morse, Robert Handay, Benjamin Day, Timothy Durkee, John Gillett, Aden Durkee, John Billings, Joseph Fish, John Wilson, John Hibbard Jr., Samuel Benedict, Calvin Parkhurst, Josiah Wheeler, Joseph Parkhurst, Elias Curtis, John Havens, Johnson Safford, John Stevens Jr., Isaac Morgan, Zebulon Lyon, Nathan Morgan, Daniel Fuller, William Joiner, Martin Fuller, Daniel Havens, Benjamin Day Jr., John Evans, Jeremiah Trescott, Israel Waller, William Jones, John House, Tillie Parkhurst, Phineas Parkhurst, Samuel Clark, Joel Marsh.
There are 2 cemeteries; ours is in LaSalle County with 136 interments. It's bigger.
All the names of original settlers in bold print are main ancestors on our tree, and even most of the others are on the tree as well. Julia Ann and Abiathar named their first son "Edward Rix Robinson."
Ancestors of Alonzo Charles Tuller, Julia Ann Tuller's father:
1 [1] Alonzo Charles Tuller b: October 22, 1809 in St. Albans, Vermont (Franklin County) d: January 29, 1870 in Rockwell, LaSalle, Illinois Occupation: 1850 Stone Mason
.. +Asenath Asinith Durkee b: 1814 in Royalton, Windsor County, Vermont d: 1868 in Royalton, Windsor County, Vermont/Rockwell, Illinois
*2nd Wife of [1] Alonzo Charles Tuller:
.. +Betty Ann Unknown b: Abt. 1816 in United States
Abiathar and Julia Ann married in Tunbridge, Vermont on February 29, 1852. It is very close to Royalton and relatives lived in both places.
She and Abiather lived next door to her younger brother, Albert Tuller, on the 1870 census in Wenona, Marshall, Illinois. She was 36 and her brother was 27. Where was Abiathar and Julia Ann during the USA 1860 census? They were found living in Canada. That would have covered the time during the Civil War from 1861-1865. From what I have found, they were in Canada from 1858 to 1861.
10/16/09 Obit from Tom Mead, my 2nd cousin, from Wenona newspaper: Mrs. Julia A. Robinson, wife of A.S Robinson, after suffering so intensely and so long, passed away from our life and our world last Friday at noon, and entered into that broader world where our knowledge is free from the burdon of ......and trouble.
Mrs. Robinson (Julia Ann Tuller) was born in Royalton, Vt, in 1834. Married to A.S. Robinson in 1851.( I have the date of February 29, 1852 in Tunbridge, Vt, just a little ways from Royalton.) The family.....of ten children, eight of whom are........of those at home. ....about a year ago and .....shortly after. ....and death. .....Her life was not.all....it as easy nor as long from ....did she bear....do her duty. A true woman, ....wife and mother. All that was m....all...was buried in the Wenona cemetery, then the ...al services being held at the....Presbyterian church and ...by Rev ....of....
As an afterthought, not having any old family pictures of any Tuller like Julia, I thought I'd browse on google and found Solomon "Zalman" Tuller b: c1871, father of Joseph on geni.com He's evidently of a different Y haplogroup, a Jewish one. Like Robinson, there are Jewish ones and Gentile ones of the same surnames. This Jewish line could easily be from Holland via Germany or Austria. Gentiles used common Jewish first names, too, especially during this period.
