Notes - Mack H. Sturgill writes in his book, ABIJAH THOMAS & HIS OCTAGONAL HOUSE, Published by Tucker Printing, 1990, Marion, Virginia. "Early court records fail to mention a pioneer Robinette family in Southwest Virginia at that time, and extensive research has failded to locate the marriage record of John Thomas and Mary Robinette anywhere in the colony."

From Smyth County Virginia Cemeteries Volume 1 by Mack & Kenneth Sturgill, Tommas, Mary b d (original stone for Mary Robinette Thomas, hand made stone, death date below ground level) Robinette, Mary b d 03 Feb 1816, wife of John Thomas (new stone. Does not mention married name.) This is listed Sinclairs Bottom Cemetery page 150. Hope this is what you need Chris [Christine Lommerse] - Source www.rootsweb.com - Smyth County, Virginia Message Board. NOTE: I am fairly certain that Great Uncle Harry Delbert Thomas told me personally, that Mary Robinett's father was listed as Samuel Robinett on her tombstone. I think it was this tombstone that Great Uncle Harry Delbert Thomas said was falling apart to the point that he could hardly read the tombstone. - Source - Don Martin Thomas.
