Robert CHRISTIAN

Birth:
Abt 1712
Ulster, Ireland
Marriage:
1732
Winchester, Virginia
Notes:
                       Data from Christian Family Chronicles, Jan. 1981, Vol 5, pp366, has Robert's (spouse=Isabella Tiffins) birthday as 1712.  He would have been 35 years old at the birth of his son Robert, who is my (Glenn H. Thomas) direct line of ancestory. Ord dates are for work done at LA Temple at the instance of Glenn H. Thomas.  LA temple sent these dates as confirmed as work done to GHT.

Notes:
                       Source:Birthdate from Christian Family Chronicles, Vol. 6, Jul 1981, pp 454-455. New data from this source which was submitted to FHD in SLC, caused them to suggest the ordinances be done over as identifying dates of the of this individual would be incorrect thus leaving her with two differnt sets of dates.
    There are BEP dates listed in the IGI of 1988 as "cleared".  These are now supplanted by new dates in 1991.

Notes:
                       Source: IGI record of John shows (in 1988 IGI) that he has been cleared for BES.  Batch #8509310 Ser. Sht #26.  By now (1989) he probably has all work done for him.

    Birthdate:  1750 is what IGI has but further data from Christian Family Chronicles Jan 1981, vol.5, page 366, shows John was baptized on the following date; 5 Jan 1745/6.  This date used as Christening date.

    Marriage Date: From Christian Family Chronicles, Jan 1981, Vol 5, pp 366 and Vol.,6 pp 454/5.

Death:
Marr:
23 Feb 1790
Augusta, Virginia 
Notes:
                       Source: Robert Christian was married to his 1st cousin Margaret Christian, 23 February 1790 in Augusta County, Virginia, by the Reverand Archibald Scott. Data from abstract of the Marriage register.

    Ordin: Sealing date to spouse (7/sep/1985 JR) obtained from IGI.

    Ordin: Endowment done by Merle Cunnington (accompanied by Glenn H. Thomas) in LA Temple on 26 Jan 1990.  Temple ordinance printout in GHT records.

    Ordin: Sealing to parents on 27 mar 1990 by Glenn H. Thomas at LA Temple.

    Since the above research was done more accurate dates were obtained on birth date of Robert from Christian Family Chronicles 1981, vol 6,p 455. The original and wrong date of birth was (Abt 1765), and was submitted to the FHD in SLC. The new and more accurate date of birth is 31 Jan 1747/1748.  Because my update was so recent FHD sent back to the LA temple Robert's name with the old birth date on it.  This note is to show that there are not two Robert Christians with the birthdates respecively 1747/1748 and abt 1765, but only one individual with an erroneous date and a more accurate date, the accurate one in this record but the FHD has the erroneous one.

    NOte of interest: Robert and Margaret were sealed in the LANGE on 17 OCt 1991 as per notification given Glenn H. Thomas from LA temple on 6 Sept 1992.  Must be the revision spoken of above that caused the seal to sp to be repeated.
