Hi Marcia,
I have the Pope Cheney book and I found no Cornelia under William or John
Cheney families born before 1820ish. I did however, find John A and Cornelia
Robb in Baltimore in the 1850 census.
According to both the 1850 and 1860 census, your John A. Robb was born in
Nova Scotia. The LDS website has him born in Mass and in the 10 plus years I
have been doing serious genealogy, I have found more mistakes in their site than
accurate info. I myself only use it as a jumping off point or to compare to
the info I have. Its information is only as accurate as the people inputting
in. My ggg- grandfather Charles Chauncey Cheney's children were mostly born in
Ithaca NY, but someone in the family, not sure who, has them all born in
Janesville Wisconsin in the LDS site. Wrong.
Further searching in Ancestry, I found a family tree of a John Alexander
Robb, wife unknown, living in Baltimore, had several children, one of which is
Cornelia Cheney Robb. It also says he was born in NY. The children listed here
are also listed on the 1850 and 1860 census for your John and Cornelia Robb.
It says he is buried in Green Mount Cemetery in Maryland. If he is there you
may find your Cornelia there too.
Checking into the father of John Robb, I find his father is John Robb and
mother is Abigail Tupper of Nova Scotia. Sometime you have to go in sideways or
backwards to find what and who you are looking for.
Not much luck with my resources. I'll keep checking though.

Hello listers!
I'm a new member. Looking for a connection with you on Cornelia Cheney, born
1794 in New York. She married John Alexander Robb in 1812 in New York. John
was born June 1, 1792 in MA, died January 28, 1864 or 1867. They had a
daughter, Mary, born 1814 in New York, NY.
This is the only information I have to work with. I hope to hear from you!
Thank you in advance!
Marcia Phillips Locher
