He married Alice Leese and together they had two children. He worked in the potteries and then was a coal miner. He died in England, never coming to the United States. Robert was deaf, and it is unknown if he was born deaf or became deaf as a small child. His wife, Alice was also deaf, as was one out of their two children.
