I'm not tracing the Robison line, however, Minnie Carter ties into a branch
of my Carter line.
I have that Chauncy and Minnie had a child, Josie Robison, who married a
Harrell at the out break of World War I.
Presuming that Josie was born ca 1896-Jan 1899, I could see where Chauncy
could have remarried quickly to have a wife to take care of Josie, an infant
or young child. Consider perhaps the 2nd wife might have died from
childbirth, Chauncy might have the need to remarry quickly, in order to take
care of his child(ren).

I found your reply to Wesley Miller's posting extremely informative for my
own researches, as you can gather from my own reply to him posted today.
There are two things I would like clarification of: firstly, you state that
Katie Kennedy was the third wife of Chauncey Robison; that he married "Rosie
Pierce" after the death of Minnie Carter in January 1899. That was not
mentioned by William Travis in his potted biography in "History of Clay
County", and also it seems surprising that he could have remarried and
"lost" his second wife (through death I suppose) in so short a time before
he married KK: anyway, I'd be interested to know the dates and
circumstances. The other question concerns Cathy Bird's posting about the
1920 Census: I haven't searched it for Robisons, but that would suggest
that Robert (Wesley Miller's grandfather) had a twin who died in infancy?
Anyway, good luck in your searches, and thanks for clearing some items up.
If you want further info about Katie!
(Kennedy) Robison's forebears, see my response to WM. If you'd like further
information about Katie Kennedy's siblings and cousins and some of their
Indiana descendants, please contact me. Best wishes, John Humphrey
