There is a Charlotte County, Virginia marriage record for a Josephus Robey dated March 8, 1817. He married Jincey Robertson, daughter of Jesse Robertson. I do not know if this was the same Josephus but I can say that their signatures do not match at all. This Josephus signed his last name "Robey" and our Josephus signed it "Roby."
