Robins, Margaret

American, born 1734

Biography

Margaret Robins, who was born in 1734 in Talbot County, Maryland. She married William Hayward, Sr., of Locust Grove, Maryland, in 1760, and the couple had two sons, George and Thomas. Margaret is possilby the sitter in a portrait now in the NGA (1980.62.10) but this identification is not documented. Other Robins sisters who could possibly be the subject are Anna Maria [born 1732], and Henrietta Maria [born 1735]. Family genealogies mention the existence of several portraits, but none of Margaret Robins. (Chotner et al. 1992)
