Life

Temperance E. Ellis, called Tampa in most of the records that name her, was born in Georgia on 1 February 1836, according to the FamilySearch tree, which cites no source for the date.1 On 15 September 1857 she married Thomas C. Robbins, a son of Solomon Robbins Sr., in a marriage that the Alabama indexes record under the names Tampa E. Ellis and Tamper E. Ellis; the tree places it in Tallapoosa County, Alabama.2 The federal census of 1860 listed T. E. Robbins in her husband's household in Coosa County.3 The tree names three sons: William Oscar (1858–1923), Ferdinance (1860–1862) and Thomas Smith (1862–1930).4 Her husband died at Knoxville, Tennessee, on 22 March 1863, by the tree's account.5 As a widow she was indexed under her own name at Nixburg, Coosa County, in the censuses of 1870 and 1880, as Tampa Robbins and Tampa E. Robins.6 She died at Nixburg on 30 July 1892 and is buried in the Nixburg United Methodist Church Cemetery, according to the tree and a Find a Grave memorial that gives her name as Temperance Ellis Robbins.7 The Alabama death records of her sons W. O. Robbins Sr., in 1923, and Thomas Smith Robbins, in 1930, name their mother as Tampa Ellis and "Tampa Ellie".8
