Temperance moved with her parents to Greene County, Georgia about 1805. She married twice in the 1820's and had one son Seborn Robins (8 January 1827 - 18 March 18940 Zekiel and Tempey married there on 1 March 1832. They migrated to Perry County, Alabama in about 1838/1839 and in 1842 they moved to Southern Union County, Arkansas. Ezekiel bought a 160 acre farm a few miles from here in 1846. They sold their farm in 1855 and then probably lived with their son-in-law Nathan Ogden. After Zekiel's death Tempey farmed with her widowed son Seborn until their deaths.
