- Allen Robinett was neither the first nor the only Robinett to emigrate to America in the 17th century from England.We have records of three members of the Robinett name who were in the Jamestown Colony in Virginia and two who were in Maryland long before Allen came in 1682. However, Allen is the only one who left known descendants in America.
Allen Robinett, the emigrant colonist to Pennsylvania, was born, probably in England about 1632; he died 5 June 1694 in Upper Providence Township, Chester (now Delaware) County, Pennsylvania; married 29 September 1653, London, England, Margaret SYMM, who apparently predeceased him, both buried, perhaps on their plantation in Upper Providence Township or in nearby Sandy Bank
Graveyard (Friends', founded 1690) on "Providence Great Road" now in the Borough of Media, PA. Allen came to America, to Penn's Colony, with his wife, Margaret, and his
two younger children, Samuel and Sarah.His two older children, Allen and Susanna, emigrated to Maryland, possibly at an earlier date than Allen Senior. Allen lived in America for not quite twelve short years.
