Life

George Washington Robbins appears in the FamilySearch tree as a son of Solomon Robbins Sr. and his first wife, Mary Elizabeth Sellers, born about 1820 in Alabama; the tree gives no death date and attaches no source to him.1 His mother died in 1820, according to the tree, and his father married Mary Martha Wilson in 1822.2 A half-brother born on 6 May 1836, of the second marriage, was given the same name, George Washington Robbins.3 Inference Parents of the period often reused the name of a child who had died, so the second George Washington suggests that this one had died by 1836; no record of him has been found to confirm it.3
