    I was contacted on Gene Reunited on 12th September 2005 by a Patricia ELLIS with regard to this family as follow: I have been doing a little more research myself about my grandmother's family. I thought you might like to know that the 'C' in Peter James Ottley's children stands for 'Colchester'. Emma Isabella 'Colchester' Robson's mother was Harriett Elizabeth Colchester Pitt (born on 26/11/1840 in Colchester, Essex). Her parents were Joseph Pitt and Emma Susannah Pitt (nee Wilson). Pat. This interested me as I live on the outskirts of Colchester. 
    Anne LITTLE a descendant of the above family wrote on 4th February 2008 - John Bergna Robsons marriage cert it states that he was a professor of music. His father John Robson was the Bard of the Tyne and was a writer and poet.

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
