By 1880, the Robertsons had left McLean Co., IL, and were living in DeWitt Co., IL (ED 76, p. 27, Soundex card virtually illegible). In the same household is a child identified as "Hardala M.", age 1, granddaughter. It is not clear if the surname is intended as Hardala, or if this is a given name.

Although her husband and all the known children appear on the family list of the South Argyle Presbyterian Church circa 1830, with notations "let off" and a partial erasure that now reads "...nior Robertson's", Jennet is not on the list. Therefore, it seems likely she died before 1830. It is also apparent that this family must have moved to another congregation, as none of the children appear in later records at South Argyle. Fitch identifies her as daughter of "old" William Robertson.
