Kathy,
Do you know if Edward and Robert were ever reconciled after the Revolutionary War, given that Robert was a Tory?
I am not sure what evidence there is that Robert was a Tory or that the brothers were estranged. He is listed as a Patriot Ancestor at DAR for donating supplies. Edward and Robert married sisters and both lived in Henry Co VA.
