was born Wythe County, Wythe County, VirginiaVirginia and they were married September 24, 1798
Some researchers place Robertson's birth locale as Wythe County Virginia, based solely on his marriage record there in 1798.) There was a Robertson Burge who lived as a single man in Chatham County NC per the first US census in 1790 census. I believe this is "our" Robertson.
An alternate possibility is that Robertson's true father died before 1790 when Robertson is 20 years old. Our Robertson Burge apparently moved from Chatham County North Carolina to Wythe County Virginia before 1798. He married Sally Newland in 1798 in Wythe County Virginia.
