Stop 23 - Dinah and Thomas Robinson Home

23. Dinah and Thomas Robinson Home, 806 Thomas, purchased July 22, 1876. In 1856, Robinson purchased her freedom along with that of her husband and their children. On February 14, 1883, she deeded the home to her widowed daughter Eliza Jane Dayton who had a son and two daughters. Eliza Jane died in 1894, followed by Dinah in 1895. Mariah Dayton Vaughn then raised the girls (her granddaughters) and paid the property taxes until 1909. Dinah and Mariah were the great-great-great-grandmothers of Angela Hagenbach and Joyce Johnson, founders of Weston's Black Ancestors Awareness Campaign. (Stops 10, 29, 30).
