  • Notes 
    • Robert spent his early years growing up in the Greenough District before he married Harriet GOULD.
      In 1921 Robert and Harriet purchased "Cintra", a Dudawa farming property from Mr. S.SMITH.

      Harriet passed away at age forty-four, in the St Omen Hospital, West Perth on 17 May 1926.
      Causes of death as shown on her death certificate were. 1- Chronic Cholecystitis.
      2Toxaemia, Heart Failure.

      Her death certificate states Harriet's father was John GOULD, but this information was incorrect. Harriet was later buried in the Anglican Cemetery at Geraldton.
      Sometime, after Harriet's un-timely death, Robert moved to Arrino where he operated an oil depot during the 1930's.
