NOTEs-

- Robert's daughter Mercy was married in Montgomery County

- There is reference to Crawfordsville, county seat of Montgomery County, in the works documenting Robert's family. They undoubtedly started life in Indiana at or near Connersville in Fayette County. The Connersville vs Crawfordsville debate had been confusing for quite some time.
