BINGO!  I am hoping this is the information that I have been looking for to tie my family line into the southjersey line.  All I have so far is back to my gg grandfather, George Henry Robbins who was born in Washington Co., Arkansas.  His father was
Richard Robbins b:??? Richards father was Aaron Robbins b:???? This Aaron Robbins was a drummer in Revolutionary War.  Does anyone know if any of their Robbins went to N. Carolina, Arkansas or Texas?

I have this from another researcher:

"I found an old court case in Smith County, TN dated June 17, 1801.  In
the suit, John Sevier and George Gordon against Aaron Robbins, and John
Livingston to Eject them from their lands. The Sevier here referred was
then Governor of Tennessee.  He and Gordon owned vast tracts of land
over a wide are of Middle TN extending at one time to the vicinity of
Byrdstown. The land claimed by these two men had evidently been occupied
by Aaron Robbins and John Livingston, and Sampson Williams.

"I found several Excerps of the case searching Smith County, TN Genweb
Project under Robbins and Robbins."
