    • Isaac Robinson, born in Leyden about 1610, was the only one of the Pastor's family to come to America. he probably was with the Puritan fleet in 1630. He arrived in Scituate in 1632, and married there in 1636 Margaret Hanfod, daughter of Theopilis and Egglin (Haterly) Hanford. She was born about 1619, and came to Massachusetts in 1634 with her widowed mother, who was a sister of Timmothy Haterly, an early Merchant Adventurer in the Plymouth Colony and founder of Scituate in 1632. Rev. Thomas hanford, first minister of Norwalk, Connecticut was a brother of Margaret.

      Isaac Robinson moved to Barnstable in 1639. Margaret died June 13, 1649, and he married again a year later. Savage writes, "By the teaching of his worthy father as well as his own experience, he gained the wiSdom thru which he was opposed to Governor Prence's policy of severity against the Quakers in 1659, and was disfranchised". He was charged with "sundrie scandels and falsehoods", dismissed from the offices he held in the town and deprived of his rights as a freeman. With a group of Quakers he crossed the Cape to Falmouth, where He kept a tavern for a number of yers. He moved to Tisbury on Martha's Vineyard in 1673, returning to Barnstable in 1701, where he died three years later at the home of his daughter, Fear. [1]
