ROBEY, ROBY GENEALOGY

Castle Donington was built in the eleventh or twelfth century to command the crossing points of the river Trent. Although the castle is now merely a mound on the northern edge of the village there still remains a thirteenth century church in the village today. Many of the Robey, Roby, Robie lines can be traced to this village.
