Note for Augustin1 Robida and
Nicolas1
Robidas.
It
is with some misgivings that I attach herewith the names of Augustin
and Nicolas as brothers of Gabriel. As of this date, October 2002,
there is no known verification except the history passed on to me by
Jean Robida, grandson of Albert Robida, 1884-1926, Compiegne,
France, who has verified the existence of one of the rifles
described in other sections of this family tree. It is presently in
his possession. Jean was born March 9, 1921. It is from his
information that I am taking the liberty of tying these two families
together, considering birth dates and spaces between. Please forgive
me if I am proved wrong. Augustin may have had more children. The
story of the two rifles presented by Napoleon at the same time to
two of the Robida boys, together with a joint grant of land, for
"service beyond the call of duty" was recounted to me by my father
Edward when I was 18 years old, or 1939. The subsequent inability
to find the deed to this land supposedly created a feud between the
two sons, resulting in one keeping the name Robida, and the other,
Robidas-Manseau. I have recounted several "Manseau's" who relate the
same story. The Manseau part of the family migrated to Canada, where
Gabriel's descendants began their life in the New France. -
