  Marriage Notes:

I have little additional information about Simon Robinson and Elizabeth Lightfoot other than their marriage in Wayne County in 1820. If they stayed in Wayne County, then there are two listings in the Census of 1880, one in Franklin Township and the other in East Union Township. In either case, Elizabeth would be about 87 years old so it is somewhat doubtful that either of these entries are her.
