Biography
Married to Elizabeth Ann Dodson on 14 Nov. 1850.* They traveled in a wagon to Oregon in 1851.[1]
Joseph Robertson was "...a native of Washington county, Tenn., and ...born in the vicinity of Athens, McMinn county, Tenn. [He] died in Bozeman, Mont., at the age of seventy-eight years, and his wife passed away in the same city, aged sixty-eight. Joseph Robertson early engaged in teaching school, but later became a farmer and was thereafter identified with agriculture for the remainder of his active business life. He was also a preacher of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church [Athens, McMinn, TN USA], doing effective ministerial work, ever ordering his life upon a high plane of rectitude and honor. One of his four children died in infancy, the others still survive. [2]
