VI. The Rest of the Robertses.
These are people for whom I have just one or two bits of information.
Some of them could be collected into location groups - but who is to say a person back then didn’t move, or get land in more than one location? So for now, I have just alphabetized the rest of the names

Norton
The next family now to be noticed is the Roberts family. The first of them known to the writer was Redden Roberts and Norton Roberts. They settled on Buck Swamp near Buck Swamp Bridge. I do not know who the wife of either was, but both married and raised families. Redden Roberts had sons, William D., James, Rowland and Giles.
Norton Roberts resided on the first settled place south of Buck Swamp Bridge; don't know who he married -think, however, his wife was a Miss Johnson; he, with all his family, except his oldest son, Colonel John M. Roberts, went to Louisiana a way back, perhaps in the forties, and it is said, don't know how much truth, that one of his sons became Governor of Louisiana.
