- Researcher Angus P. Robinson (1925-2000) claimed that one Sarah Bass married our James Robertson on 22 Jun 1781, when he would have been ten years old. We have seen no evidence for this unlikely event, but in fact, Sarah Bass was bonded in marrige on that date, but to a James Gates. But the 1798 marriage of our James Robertson to Nancy Sims is actually of record, and is cited in The Virginia Genealogist, V.46 #2 p.148.
- "I have found evidence of a James Robertson who came to Stokes County with a son Daniel but I have not found proof that he was our James Robertson. I know he was probably over forty when he married Anna Mabe (if he married her) so it's really possible he was married at LEAST once before." Researcher Velpo Robertson
- James Robertson and Nancy Sims were both grandchildren of George Robertson, but their grandmothers were Mildred Bernard and Jane Gates, so they were second cousins?
