Robert immigrated to Canada with his parents about 1823.40 About 1837 he moved to Irish's Corners (now Woodville), Mariposa Township ON and bought land (Lot 1, Concession 15)30,6. His brothers John & George did the same. The price--it's unclear whether for half or whole lot--was £37 10s, paid as $50 and a team of oxen.40

Robert mortgaged his farm to pay for the construction of a Baptist meeting house at Lot 2, Concession 14, Mariposa, and lost the farm. He left the area and moved to Bexley Township, Victoria County ON in the mid-1860s.12,6,30,39
