    Notes:

    The family name Robinds was also spelled Robins in some records.

    According to information printed in Pieces of the Past, Daniel was captured at the Battle of Worcester and in 1651 was among 274 Scottish prisoners shipped by Cromwell from London to New England. He is listed in the Ships Passenger List of the "John and Sara" and arrived in New England in May 1652. Daniel was sold to Nathaniel Foote to serve 6-8 years as an indentured servant before being granted freedom. When Nathaniel Foots died before Daniel's indentureship was completed, Daniel stayed with the family. He had been treated well and held Mr. Foote in the highest esteem, so much so that Daniel named one of his sons after him.

    Hope died prior to Daniel. Daniel's last request was to be buried at Woodbridge beside Hope, thus his last request was honored and his body was taken on a 28 mile journey to Woodbridge and buried in an unmarked grave by Hope. This was taken from Bible records and old family documents. There are no pictures of Daniel but he was described as 5', bright blue eyes, dark thick curly hair and played a harp. Even though Daniel had no reading skills, he enjoyed his wife reading him the Bible
