Charles Robertson

There were two Charles Robertsons living in the area at the same time. Click here to see my attempt to untangle them.

Also spelled as Robinson, Robison, Robeson, Roberson and Robertson.

Charles Robertson was born about 1745. His father was John Robertson.

He married Susannah Cunningham. Susannah was the daughter of Christopher Cunningham.

James Robertson (1775, married Sally Ridley)
Elizabeth Robertson (1777, married Robert Evans)
Christopher Robertson (married Nancy Demoss and Elizabeth Joslin)
Mary Polly Robertson (married John Hardgrove)

Elijah Robertson (1784)
Mark Claiborne Robertson
Rhoda Robertson (1791, married John Lucas)

In 1776 he, and his brother Elijah, signed the petition of Watauga settlers asking to become part of North Carolina.

In 1780 he and his brother, James, were at Kings Mountain.

He made his will in 1806 in Davidson County, Tennessee.
