Introduction to Index of Roberts families

Thousands of Robertses and spouses!

What's new

1-1-97. More Robertses from the Revolutionary war. This completes entry of all the Rev war records I have to date. I do not have any details for people who were in the Revolutionary war, so please don't ask.
Roberts wills from MD. Roberts court records from MD.

Introduction

Entry format

The format of each entry is:
Lastname, Firstname, prefix (b. birth date, birth place, m. marriage date, marriage place, spouse name, d. death date, death place) reference (like your email address).

Explanation of fields:

• "lastname" is the person's last name
• "firstname" is the person's first name. This could be followed by middle names (if any) then any previous married names.
• "prefix" are prefixes of honor, such as "Rev" for reverand, "Hon" if the person was a judge, "Sir" if they were knighted, etc.
• The items in parentheses are self explanatory.
• "reference" is the page of the "Roberts family" book, the family number in the book, the submitter's website or email address, or a book name (like "PA marr" which means Pennsylvania marriages).

"in Rev war" - this name came from a list of Revolutionary war participants. No other data is associated with these names except the state they came from. Please don't ask me for more info on people in the Rev. war, I don't have it.

"Details" - means I have some details about the persons professional or personal life.

Submitting your names

If you would like to submit names to this database:

1. Make sure the names are not yet in the database. If your name is in the database but is missing info which you have, send it on in!
2. Submit them in the above format with each line preceded by "<LI>" which is an HTML tag for a "list item". Don't type in the quotes.
3. Example:

   <li>Roberts, James (b. Oct 11, 1919, Somewhere, MD, m. Nov 11, 1930,
   Cactus, AZ, Nancy Smith, d. Nov 1, 1980, Smalltown, CT)
   < a href="mailto:your_email_address" > your_email_address < /a >
   

I typed this all in by hand over many tedious hours. I hope someone finds this helpful.
