Elizabeth Robbins is shown here surrounded by her family. She was born about 1852 in Navesink, NJ. The date of her marriage to John Henry White is not known. Her first child was born in 1867 which would have made her a young bride and mother. She raised her family in a house built on a barge called "The Ark." She and Jack had ten children, two of whom died as young children. The date of her death is lost but she is mentioned as surviving her husband in his 1921 obituary.
