Bridgewater, Vermont's Robinson and Bartletts

Nadene Goldfoot                                             
Colonial America-New Hampshire, Vermont
                                                 
We have established that Robinsons abounded in Vermont with some in Bridgewater,

Bridgewater is a town in Windsor CountyVermont, United States. The population was 936 at the 2010  census.  

In 1850 the population was 1,311.   Bridgewater contains the hamlets of Bridgewater Village, Bridgewater Corners, West Bridgewater, and Bridgewater Center (formerly called Briggs).

I found 4 women living together in a home in Bridgewater on the 30 July 1850 census, and they were:
Mary Bartlett b: 1770 in Massachusetts who was 80 years old-(not so old to me today as I'm almost 85). 
Her daughter, Mary Bartlett 43 years old
Mary A Pratt 24 and Emeline Pratt 18.  

On the July 27, 1850 census of Bridgewater,  I found Horace S. Bartlett, a farmer age 28, his young wife, Cornelia  27, and their little boy, John R. Bartlett 4.  
                                                                       
On the July 26, 1850 census of Bridgewater, I found a strange circumstance.
Samuel Babcock was an 83 year old carpenter and living with him was Lucy Robinson, 56, either a border or daughter and Mary Robinson 89, and a Mary M. Robinson 12. 

 Another name down the page was Elisha Woods 61, farmer and Mary Woods 55, Julia M. Woods 18 and Scott O. Robinson age 5, and Harrison Pratt 27 year old shoemaker.   

These children, Mary M Robinson 12 and Scott O Robinson 5 could have been orphans that were taken in by these 2 families of Bridgewater.  Some tragedy like a wagon train attack could have occurred.  

I have two DNA matches and need to learn which Robinson connected with Bartlett because one DNA tester has Robinson on their tree and the two DNA matches to me match each other as well as with me, so it could be Bartlett that is the connection.

Many of the Bartletts lived in New Hampshire, but I see some were also in Vermont where I know that my ggrandfather, Abiathar Smith Robinson also lived.

Here, by finding one different father for someone, I have connected one of my DNA cousins to a New Hampshire Bartlett line that I am also connected to through a Y haplogroup of the Robinson tree of our one and only Y DNA match going into New Hampshire. This is the Bartlett line.
