Looking for information or connections to Wilburn? Robbins who married Thursa (Thursey) Jenkins. Not sure if this was his only marriage or not. They were living in Miller county during the 1850 census and family was still there during the 1880 census.

Wilburn's children (by however many wives and maybe not all)
were:
(ages in 1850)
John 15
Noah 12
Mary 19
Martha 8
Elizabeth 7
Lydia 2

There was also a Thomas Henderson Robbins or Thomas Henderson age 7 living with them at this same time. Not sure if Thomas took the Robbins name or not or if the Henderson may have been his middle name. Later it shows his middle name to start with an N. so the assumption is that he may have even been a twin to Elizabeth.

In the 1860 census it does not show Wilburn and only shows:
Thersa Robins 36
Lydia 12
Thomas N. 17
Sarah 9

By 1870 census Thomas had married Martha A. Medows (Meadows) and they were the parents of Leroy J. (3) and Daniel Boone (1).

By the 1880 census Thomas and Martha also had Alice F. (9)
Mary B. (7) and Ida (2). In 1884, they had my grandfather, Walter. All these children (along with Thomas and Martha) were born in Missouri.

Any information on this family would be greatly appreciated.

TIA

Anna
