    Living with brothers and sisters, in the household next to their parents, in 1901 census. He is listed as the head of the household at the time, even though in the middle of them in age.

    He lived near Lucky Lake Saskatchewan for awhile before moving to BC (verified by the book ?Don?t Shoot From the Saddle? by Dr. Donald Alexander Holley).

    The Flesherton Advance for Jan. 12, 1911 has a notice to the public from Robert about his having just bought out a Mr. F.J. Weber?s general store business at Kimberley, ON. It also mentions that he had just moved to Kimberley on Jan. 11.

    The Flesherton Advance for Jan. 3, 1923 has Robert and two daughters (Edith and Freda) coming to visit Sam Croft and his wife on New Years, and that they were living at Theo, SK at the time.

    Family officially moved to BC (near Vinsulla, initially) in 1937.

    Death date from Flesherton Advance, March 31, 1943. Dr. Holley?s book says he suffered from a stroke on March 21, but survived, never recovering consciousness, for about a week. Dr. Holley found Robert lying in the snow near the woodlot on their property.

    From his nephew?s (Elmer Howard) family history:

    Robert Arthur was a hard working, good-natured, big, honest, handsome fellow who was also a mason, brick or stone. He farmed as a young man in partners with Chas on the old home in Ontario. He married Kate Neeley, sister to the wife of brother Peter Edward. Rob operated a general store in Kimberly, Ont. for a while; also a livery barn in Meaford Ont. Later he moved to Saskatchewan where he carried on farming. Then he moved to B.C. in the early ?30s. He passed away in the hospital at Quesnell in 1942,I think. Raised a family of seven: Ella, Harvey, Arthur, Edith, Wilmot, Freda, and Alex, all living in B.C. (except Freda). From web site of Curtis Boyle, Jan., 2011.
