    Notes:

    We do not know the name of Owen's wife, it appears that she died in New York before Owen came to Canada. Owen is listed on the passenger list of the Hope in 1783 with 4 children...we do not know who the fourth child is either. Owen's brother Philip was also on the Hope with his family. Mary, Rebecca and Owen Jr all petition for land as the children of a UEL and list Owen Roblin as their father. (Linda Herman)

    In his 1788 British government claim regarding his losses, Owen described his farm and holdings, initiated c. 1769, as follows
    "Had a Lease farm held of David Mathews in Orange Co. It was for four years or 5 years a time, but says he could have sold the Improvements. He had lived there 10 years.

    Military:
    Owen claimed to have participated in the battle at Ward's Blockhouse near Bull's Ferry, NJ

    Other Events and Attributes:

    • _UID: 617576CBF0A94EE1B07CE1F797FCF2F45C4B
    • Immigration: Abt 1755, USA
    • Residence: Abt 1755, Troy, Rensselaer, New York, United States
    • Residence: Abt 1760, New Jersey, USA
    • Residence: 1761, Bergen County, New Jersey, USA
    • Residence: 1769, Smiths Clove, Orange, New York, USA

    Notes:

    See Richard Roblin's document "The Parents of Philip Roblin" for further details which need to be entered into the family tree.

    Residence:
    The 1769 land transaction involved a lot that intersected the corners of Lots 51 and 52. As seen in Figure 2, this means that the transaction between "Philip Roblon" and John Belcher involved a one-half portion of Cheesecock Patent Lot 53. This would locate "Philip Roblon's" purchased 75 acres close to the area where Elizabeth Miller, Philip 1's future wife lived. This would have afforded Philip 1 close proximity and time to court and marry Elizabeth Miller.

    I previously assumed that the purchaser of the 75 acres was Philip1, but, as we now believe that he was born c. 1752-3, in 1769 he would have been only about 16. I doubt that he would have been qualified to take out a mortgage for 170

    Philip married Grace MEREDITH on 9 May 1737 in Clifton, , Gloucestershire, England. Grace was buried on 9 Aug 1748 in Bristol, , Gloucestershire, England. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 3.  Grace MEREDITH was buried on 9 Aug 1748 in Bristol, , Gloucestershire, England.
