Family of Noah M. Roberson/Robinson (1796-1876), of Hawkins County, TN; buried at Smith Cemetery I, gravestones as "Roberson." Married abt 1818/1819 place unknown to Mary Jane Ellis (1805-1855), d/o Abraham Ellis (1786-1848) and Barbara Lee. Looks like they were in Callaway County first (abt 1831), then Lincoln County before 1850. Older children may have been born Tennessee. 1850, 1860 and 1870 censuses spell the surname as Robbinson/Robinson. Various records of descendants alternately spell the surname as "Robinson" and "Roberson" - which makes tracking and sorting them out interesting. Those censuses variously report Noah's birth-state as Tennessee, North Carolina and South Carolina. Biography of son Noah Marion Roberson (1840-1909) (following) reports his father's birth-state as South Carolina, which I believe is probable. Research is incomplete and subject to correction and clarification.
I have read snippets that indicate there was a will or probate records for Noah M. Roberson (1796-1876) that name heirs. I have, however, not seen a complete record.
Note that the area they lived was in Hurricane Township at the north border of Lincoln County, Missouri at the southern border of Pike County. This area is across the Mississippi River from Pike and Calhoun Counties in Illinois and was frequently transversed via various watercraft. These were relatively sparsely populated areas at the time and a small number of families were close-knit and intermarried, so reasonable presumptions of relationships can be made based on this proximity.

The children:
A James Roberson (est 1840-?) married 28 February 1861 at Pike County, Missouri to Manerva/Minerva/Manervy Kitson (1841/1844-1872/1876), daughter of James Kitson and Eliza Shuck. He reportedly died in 1863 but I have not seen the evidence. The year would indicate the possibility he died in the Civil War and may have been buried where he died. Manervy married second 2 November 1865 at Pike County, Missouri to Andrew Branch Clendenny (1842-1933). Andrew married second 4 July 1876 at Calhoun County, Illinois to Eliza Ann Gray (1844/1845-aft 1930). I think it more likely the other James was son of Noah BUT ... six-year-old Manervy Kitson, her parents and siblings were enumerated in the 1850 census in Lincoln County, Missouri on the same page as Noah and his family. However, this James would have been young enough that he would have been enumerated in the 1850 census. I have no other theory as to who this James Roberson's (est 1840-?) parents were.
Noah-Died Dec. 6, 1876 Aged-80 yrs.
Noah Roberson/Robinson was reportedly born 1796 in Hawkins County, Tennessee, but in the censuses of 1850, 1860 and 1870 reported his birth state as Tennessee, South Carolina and North Carolina, respectively.
Jane-Wife of N. Roberson Died Feb. 15, 1855 Aged-72 Ys. 3 Ms. & 27 ds. Noah & Jane on same stone
Jane Roberson, (Mary Jane (Ellis) Roberson/Robinson), wife of Noah, was born 18/19 October 1802 in Kentucky, d/o Peter Ellis as described in the biography of her son Noah Marion Roberson (1840-1909). Consequently, her age at death should have been transcribed as "52 Ys. 3 Ms. & 27 ds." which conveniently resolves the discrepancy. Some sources report her as d/o Abraham Ellis (1786-1848) and Barbara Lee. That is apparently incorrect.
"Our subject's [Noah Marion Roberson (1840-1909)] mother bore the maiden name of Mary Jane Ellis. She was born in Kentucky, October 18, 1802, and was the daughter of Peter Ellis, who came to this state in a very early day, and made this section his home until his decease. Mrs. Roberson died February 15, 1855, after having become the mother of eight children, of whom our subject was the youngest." Portrait and Biographical Record of St. Charles, Lincoln and Warren Counties, Missouri ; Chapman Publishing Company; 1895; Page 425-426.
Infant-Daughter of N.M. & Frances Roberson Born Feb. 15, 1876 Died Mar. 20, 1876 Aged-3 Weeks(Note discrepancy in age by dates child would have been 1 Mo. 5 Days not 3 weeks.
This was daughter of Noah Marion Roberson (1839-1909) and Frances Ulery (1841-1890).

That was probably the William Sherwood who was age 55, born Virginia shown in the 1850 census on the same page as Rosanna Palmer (Pike County MO, page 242).
Further information found in the database and elsewhere for Nancy Margaret, Noah Marion and Elizabeth "Bettie" Roberson. John last seen in 1870 census (age 45, single) and Abraham in the 1860 census (age 24, single).
Son of Noah M. Roberson (1796-1876) and Mary Jane Ellis (1802-1855).
NOAH M. ROBERSON, well known in Hurricane Township, is the owner and occupant of one hundred acres of land, located on section 18. When it came into his possession only a small portion was cleared, but by arduous work on his part the greater portion has been placed under good tillage, and made a productive property.-----
Mr. Roberson was born in this county, April 15, 1839, and is the son of Noah Roberson, born in South Carolina in 1796. The latter was a farmer all his life, following that vocation first in his native state, whence he emigrated to Tennessee, and from t here to Callaway County, Mo. After a residence there of some time, we find that he settled in Lincoln County, where Noah, of this sketch, was born, and at whose home he died, December 6, 1876, aged eighty-six years.
Our subject's mother bore the maiden name of Mary Jane Ellis. She was born in Kentucky, October 18, 1802, and was the daughter of Peter Ellis, who came to this state in a very early day, and made this section his home until his decease. Mrs. Roberson died February 15, 1855, after having become the mother of eight children, of whom our subject was the youngest. He attended the schools taught on the subscription plan of the early day, conning his lessons while sitting on puncheon benches placed around an open fireplace. The term usually lasted but three months of the year, and of the scanty privileges young Noah took advantage, and attended during the winter season until eighteen years of age.
June 13, 1861, Noah M. Roberson and Miss Frances Ulery, the daughter of William Ulery, were united in marriage. Her mother's maiden name was Powell. Mrs. Roberson was born in 1846, in Missouri, and died on the 15th of October, 1890. She bore her hus band seven children, of whom those living are: Edward Lee, Jesse, Laura, Lizzie and Cynthia. William Noah is deceased, and one who died unnamed. Laura is the wife of Ellis Dameron, and Lizzie married Bee Rodgers.
For two years after his marriage our subject remained with his aged father, and in 1862 leased a tract of land near the home place, which he cleared and occupied for three years. At the expiration of that time he moved to his present estate of one hund red acres, and again had the hard task of clearing and preparing the soil for cultivation.
The lady whom Mr. Roberson chose for his second wife, and to whom he was married February 24, 1891, was Miss Kate, daughter of Henry Pearl, a native of Kentucky. The lady was born in Montgomery County, this state, October 9, 1847. Her mother, Mrs. Sal ly Ann (Pearl) Pearl, was also born in Kentucky, where she was married, removing to Missouri some time in the '30s. Of the family of eleven children born to them, Kate was the seventh.
Mr. Roberson is a member of the Presbyterian Church, while his wife is connected with the Christian denomination. In politics he is a Democrat, which party he has supported all his life, and during the existence of the Grange he was a member of that or ganization.

SAMUEL G. ROBERSON, an able and leading educator of Warren County, has been for five years Principal of the public schools of Warrenton. He is a native son of Missouri, and comes from an old family in the United States, the genealogy of which can be traced back for a number of generations.Portrait and Biographical Record of St. Charles, Lincoln and Warren Counties, Missouri ; Chapman Publishing Company; 1895; Page 427-428.
Born in Bay, Gasconade County, April 25, 1853, the subject of this sketch is a son of Hiram and Adeline (Adams) Roberson, the former a native of Tennessee, and the latter of Kentucky. Hiram Roberson was a blacksmith by trade, and followed his calling for many years at the cross roads called Bay. In order to obtain an education, our subject was obliged to go three miles to school, and that was kept only three or four months each year.
When sixteen years old, Mr. Roberson began attending the high school at Hermann, and after a year's course of study was enrolled as a pupil at the Central Wesleyan College of Warrenton. There he continued for three years, going a term or two of the time as he had the money to pay his tuition, for he was obliged to make his own way through college. After leaving the high school he began teaching, at the age of nineteen, in his home district, receiving $30 per month. He taught in that locality several terms, and after he had spent two years at college he took a school in the adjoining district to his old home.
September 2, 1875, Mr. Roberson married Miss Louisa E. Kehr, a schoolmate of his boyhood days. He then purchased a farm of two hundred and twenty acres. This he operated during the main part of the year for three years, but taught a winter term of school in the intervals. Thourh he was successful as an agriculturist it did not seem to be his particular calling, and his desire for his books and school work finally led to his selling his farm.
September 8, 1881, our subject again became a resident of Warrenton, and entered the college as a student. At the end of a year he took a school at Truesdail, after which he attended college for another year. The next two years he taught in the Brandt School, situated about two miles and a-half east of this place, where he continued to make his headquarters, journeying back and forward every night and morning. In the fall of 1886 he was given charge of the schools of this city, and taught for three months in the old building. After two years more of this work he became solicitor for an insurance company, with which he remained for a year, but even in this period he taught a small district school. In 1889 he was offered the principalship which he still continues to hold. Under his management the school system has been greatly improved and is an exponent of the times in every respect.
The marriage of S. G. Roberson and wife has been blessed with three children, two of whom died in infancy. The eldest, Emma, born July 29, 1876, is quite a musician, and as she has manifested considerable talent in that direction, she is now taking a course of training in the Central Wesleyan College. Politically our subject is a Republican, his first ballot having been cast in the Presidential election of 1876. He is now serving as City Clerk, and the manner in which he meets the responsibilities of the place deserves commendation which is freely bestowed upon him by all concerned.
