Robert Barron arrived in the Virginia Colony on the "David" under the command of Jo Hogg, Master, from Gravesend. [(The original Lists of Person of Quality.... Who Went from Great Britain to the American Plantations 1600-1700., p.129.) Williams. p. 5]

"Theis under written names are to be transported to Virginea, imbarqued in David J: Hogg Mr have been examined by the Minister of Gravesend etc.

The following list of passengers includes Robert Barron and what appears to be several single women.  We presently have no record of whether one of these women is the mother of Andrew Barron but if he was born shortly after Robert immigrated he would have to make a marriage some rapidity. Neville Mann is quoted in some records as having Andrew Barron coming to Virginia in 1635 on the "David" at age 18.  I think this is unlikely in view of the following record and there may have been confusion about Robert being David.

The following is taken from the book The Barron and Hall Family Histories: With Notes on Related Families, by Roy Holmes Hall of Dallas, Texas in 1967:

      "It is entirely possible that young Robert landed at Jamestown and from there removed to Kent Island, now a part of Talbot County, Maryland.  William Claibourne, a Virginian, established a colony and a trading post on the Island in 1631. Shortly thereafter, Claibourne was having difficulty with Lord Baltimore's Colony because they would not recognize his proprietary rights on the Island. This Maryland established 1634 on st. clement island, claibourne believed had prior rights. did not have patent, but only a trading license, so his claims were held to be invalid by king' s court, and he  lost the dispute. This contest over land titles developed into open hostilities between the two settlements.    A naval battle between Claibourne's ship Cocktrice and the St. Margaret ensued at the mouth of the Pocomoke River on April 23, 1635, the same year that Robert arrived in America. The quarrel between Claibourne and the Maryland colonists was the chief topic of conversation at Jamestown, and there was considerable excitement. Claibourne made numerous trips to obtain recruits for his colony on KentIsland, and the opportunity for Robert Barron to be among them was established, although his name does not appear on records known to date."
