With his first wife, Ann Grantham, Hezekiah had at least 2 sons:

1) John (1810-????)
2) Richard Grantham (1812-1884)

With his second wife, sister-in-law Tabitha Grantham, Hezekiah had at least 9 sons (2 of whom were Civil War casualties)and 1 daughter. In addition to the links posted here, they include:

1) Thomas D (1820-1905)
2) Bose (1825-1846)
3) George H (1826-1863) Civil War Casualty
4) Gale C (1828-1865) Died at Point Lookout POW camp Point Lookout, MD
5) Samuel Coleman (1831-1840?) who was a twin to Green Coleman Robinson
6) Arthur C (1836-????)

Hezekiah Robison/Robertson/Robinson's birthplace is assumed to be Virginia which he stated in census records of the early 1800's. His tombstone states his age as 75. This would put his date of birth at 1777, but since the spelling seemed to be phonetic and not trustworthy, there are doubts that the age is correct. The 1830 and 1850 census both would corroborate the 1784 date of birth. His children (11 boys and 1 girl) variously used "Robertson", Robinson" and "Robison".
