Robey Family Reunion brings guests from eight states to Adrian




Frontier Village was the Saturday, August 1, 2009 destination of the descendants of Albert Harrison and Clara Margaret (Eckert) Robey. Albert came with his parents, two brothers and a sister from Ohio to Bates County, Missouri in 1872. Clara was the child of David and Florence (VanBenthusen) Eckert. They were married December 29, 1892 and had four sons: James Grant, David Francis, Sherman Arthur and Marion Albert.
All agreed that Frontier Village was an ideal place for the reunion, but the next one will be in the summer of 2011 in Council Bluffs, Iowa.
