I have researching my family roots and know of some in PA and NY but can't get any farther than my great grandfather. Here is what I have so far; My father was Louis Tolbert (1929-1985) (on his Birth Certificate it is Lewis, but all other records - Military and Death certificate it is Louis). His father was Samuel Platt Tolbert (1900-1968). His father was also Samuel (1867-1951) although I don't have a middle name on him. Both of these Samuel's are buried in Chemung, NY. I have been told that my great-great-grandfather was also Samuel and possibly buried in Tioga Point Cemetery, Athens, PA.

Merita, I have an Asa in my line, born 1813 and buried in Steuben County. He is the son of Samuel (1780) and Verlina I believe, and I have Seth as a brother to Asa. My Asa had 2 known wives (Cathron and Mary) If this is the same line as you have I would love to share information.

Surnames: Tolbert
My Tolbert family in Cass County Michigan originated from Steuben Co New York. Seth Tolbert b 13Feb1823 d1900, William Tolbert b 1830 d 1925, and I believe their father was Samuel Tolbert b 1786 d 1873. They are all buried in the family plot in Oak Grove Cemetery in Porter Township, Cass Co, Mich. The census information indicates Samuel was born in Pennsylvania. I see there were quite a few Tolberts in Bath, Steuben Co, NY, and were related to the Stamp family of Bath. Some of the Stamps are also buried in Oak Grove. I would appreciate any help in sorting out the Tolbert lineage in New York.

My G-Aunt Phebe Robinson married Michael Tolbert and they lived in Eaton Co. Charlotte area, Mich. She was originally from Allegan, Calhoun, Barry co. areas and so he may have been also. Am seeking info about her through any means possible. Her DOB is 1848, they had Ethel, Merton, Joy (m), Lena.

Surnames: Tolbert
I don't have any record of Michael Tolbert, however, there may be children of William Tolbert b 1830, d 1925, and Julia Ann Trovinger Tolbert that I haven't tracked down. Cass county isn't all that far from Eaton County. I have also found that besides Seth Tolbert, William Tolbert, and Sally Tolbert Stamp (all children of Samuel Tolbert b 1786, d 1873) there were other Tolberts from New York who came to Michigan. It looks like they came to Michigan around 1845-1855. It is possible they may be related to Michael Tolbert.

If you know of years of birth or death, and exactly where they lived, it would help find them in the US census. Let me know. Thanks

Michael and Phebe Robinson were married in Eaton Co. abt 1863. I have a picture of Michael Tolbert in a military uniform with medals and he was a mature man when the picture was taken. I am related to Phebe but am trying to find someone on either side. I will try to get more information. Thank you.
