I have never been able to make any family connection to anyone in the book. But, I have only been able to trace my gt. grandfather, Edward Robbins 1836-1876. The Dodge Co. Wi. records burned. I had great hopes with the DNA kit # 111211 but I am beginning to think most of us turn to DNA because we can't find any other way.

Are you saying the DNA test kit #111211 from your Robbins male doesn't match the Daniel Robins descendants? I agree that researchers now turn to DNA as the only way to find a biological relationship to a family. It's a great tool for family researchers. As technology progresses & the DNA databases grow, hopefully the future will provide us with the answers we need.

I don't know if the DNA test matches Daniel Rob[b]ins or not. I admit I know very little about the ins and outs of DNA. I mentioned the book I have in case someone would like me to send them any information out of it. I have tried for many years to find my ancestors with no luck. I believe from census records that Edward Robbins was born in NY and may have had a brother James. He had a son John, and daughters Ella [Erickson], Bessie [Ferguson] and Sue Storms.

The two exact matches did not have any information and like me are just learning. Thanks for letting me know.
