  13. Robert and family emigrated from Scotland around 1847 and are to be found in Glasgow in the 1841 census, which shows Robert as a cloth finisher, not born Lanarkshire.
    Attempts to date to find his parents have not been successful.
    There may also be an Alexander in the family given that in the 1860 census William is with an Alexander, both lodging in the same household as William's future wife Draxanna AUSTIN
  14. Father and son Robert both worked for the Dunnell Manufacturing Coy of Pawtucket.
    The Dunnell Manufacturing Coy appears to also have been known as the Dunnell Print Works, established in the 1830s and one of Pawtucket's largest textile factories
