Subject:    [Robbinsfamilysouthjersey] Lidia  R. Robbins - married Pierson (aka Pearson) Coleman Mack

Some years ago I had been sent some information, no sources cited,no
further details,that a "Pearson"/Pierson Coleman Mack born 1815, NY
married first to a Lidia R. Robbins, born in New Jersey. I ignored it
for many years since I did not have time for collateral lines - but
now, am trying to update my database and trying to find if this is so
or not, since I do spend a lot of time trying to help other Mack
descendants. On the 1850 census in Ohio, there is a Lydia Mack, age 34
with childen, born NJ and next door is a "Moses and Rebecca Robins"
ages 63 and 59, born New Jersey who have one of the Mack children in
their home - am I correct in assuming that these are the parents of
Lydia Mack and that, indeed, Lydia is Lydia R. Robbins?  It, of
course, seems obvious, but I know better than to assume what I see is
what it seems to be. One never assumes anything in genealogy is one of
the two things taught to me, along with "document, document,
document."   Does anyone have more details on Lydia and her parents?
