Robert was born in Salt Aire, Yorkshire, England and immigrated, as a young boy, with his parents to Greenwich, Rhode Island.
He married the former Sarah Jane McNairn on 31 Dec 1892 at St. Jerome Rectory in Holyoke, Hampden, Massachusetts by Rev Anthony E. Dwyer, Assistant Pastor.
His wife, Sarah Jane McNairn was born in Glasgow, Lanarkshire, Scotland.
I used his birth date from his Naturalization record, rather than his headstone birth date.
The date for year of birth on his headstone is wrong. According to 1900 Federal census he was born May 1873.
On his Naturalization records, he gives his date of birth as 11 May 1870.
He died in the old Holyoke Hospital on the day my parents were married at Holy Cross Church. My parents and the entire wedding party went directly to the hospital to see him after the wedding ceremony.
