At his death, Robert was 96 years of age, his occupation is given as a former horse medicine maker. The death was registered by his daughter M Bate who was present at his death. During his lifetime Robert was mostly referred to as a farrier, but other horse related occupations were occasionally used on various certificates and marriages of his children.
Robert had a brother Reuben and it seems that there is some confusion as to which is Robert and which is Reuben as sometimes information on Robert seems to refer to Reuben and vice versa. Robert and Reuben were both 96 years old when they died, one in 1940, the other in 1944.
