Family/Spouse: Mavell East. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events:

• Immigration: 1636-1640, Henrico County, Virginia; A Thomas Robinson was brought to Virginia by Thomas Stegg of Charles City County in 1640. On 1 June 1636, James Place of Henrico County "rec'd 550 acres for brining Thomas Robinson and others..."NW toward the Falls of the Main River" which refers to the Mames, Virginia's oldest main waterway. There were Thoams Robinsons of other dates listed, but it seems evident that the Thomas Robinson brought by James Place of Colonel Stegg is the correct ancestor. Both Stegg and Place may have applied for and received their lands a few years after the ebarkation date so Thomas could have been in Henrico County even earlier that 1636-1640. The location referring to the "headright" lands appears to be near the location of the Field and Jones family who lived by Thomas Robinson.
