Wife of Bennett Hiram Musgrave (1803 - 1864 Pacific Ocean); daughter of James and Sarah Robinson. Mother of 11 children.

The following is from the Old Settlers Gazette - 2007
Anna Robinson, born in 1800 and the second child of James and Sarah Robinson, married Bennett Musgrave (born in 1803) in Lawrence County, Tennessee, in 1821. Anna and Bennett Musgrave moved to Illinois sometime between 1821 and 1830. In 1830 Bennett and Anna Musgrave lived in Macoupin County, Illinois, and by 1833 they had secured land there from the federal government. They apparently resided in Morgan County, Illinois, in 1839, paying taxes on land there. Although Bennett and Anna Musgrave were not listed in the Missouri census for 1840, they were living there in 1842 when Anna died.

Anna Robinson Musgrave's sister Olive Robinson, born in 1810 and the sixth child of James and Sarah Robinson, married Bennett Musgrave's brother Burrell in Illinois in 1825. Burrell and Olive Musgrave were probably in residence in Montgomery County, Illinois, in 1830 and by 1833 had acquired land there from the federal government, as well. By 1837 they had moved with their growing family to Missouri, settling in the Cookville area near Olive's parents, James and Sarah Robinson.
