22 Mar 2024 - Am going to add (over the next few days) the profiles of each wife, and add the profiles of children not yet profiled (as shown by on Robert's memorial site) and also add any found listed in familysearch.org. Will also add citation from familysearch.org for census returns (for the convenience of those who cannot access Ancestry.com)
