I'm a descendant of Joshua Robbins born 1777 who lived in Columbia County, PA.
I've been researching his family.

I agree with Sara Hoffman than Sincy has no support for being Joshua's father.
Someone said that he is mentioned in the Joshua Robbins family bible.
I'm looking for a quote, copy of the page.

What is interesting in the unsupported information from Joshua's bible is
that the supposed sons of Sincy were: The names of these sons were known
to be; - WILLIAM, VINCENT, JOSHUA, JOHN and JOSEPH ROBBINS.

I believe that Robbins with these names were brothers or very closely related.
They all appear to have New Jersey roots and lived in Columbia County, PA.

In my research, I haven't found any record of these people anywhere but in
Pennsylvania, even though I've put a lot of time into it.

Notes:
-    William:    taxed in Upper Mount Bethel Twp, Northampton County, PA,
in 1781.  I've found no other Robins/Robbins in Northampton County around
that time.  He's been confused with other William/William's.  Sons John
and Joseph.
-    Elizabeth Robbins:    probably a sister, married Robert Richart about
1785, who lived in Upper Mount Bethel Twp.  Elizabeth was Robert's 2nd wife.
I don't know if they married in Northampton County or Columbia County.
I'd expect her to be living with her parents but noluck there.  One     son
named Vincent.
-    Vincent:    married and lived in New Jersey until about 1793.  Sons John
and William.
-    Joshua:    the records are reasonably good after he moved to Pennsylvania
-    John:    generally commenting, no one knows about him.  Son William
-    Joseph:    information is good, his first sons names were William
and Vincent.

I would very much like to correspond with anyone who has additional
information on this family.  I've collected a reasonable amount of information
on these families.
