Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Robert WestonRobert Weston was born on 2 Feb 1824 in Brackley, Northampton, England; was christened on 4 Feb 1824.

    Other Events:

    • Occupation: Land Surveyor in 1851 census
    • Occupation: Station Agent in 1861 census

    Notes:

    Charles Newton Weston (Robert's great grandson) wrote in his book (relevant chapter in Documents) that he visited Brackley in 1936. He saw a gravestone 'Sacred to the memory of Mary, the beloved wife of Robert Weston of this town, Solicitor, who died on 6th day of January 1876 and of Robert Weston who died on 14th December 1889 aged 64 years.'
    This could not have been the grave of his great grandmother since she died in 1844. Robert's second wife Maria died in 1889. And Robert himself died in 1872. So this gravestone is problematical - could there have been two solicitors in Brackley called Robert Weston? Or perhaps Newton got his dates wrong.
    Note that THIS Robert would have been 64 in 1889, so he could be the one buried here.


    Occupation:
    The term Station Agent became Station Master somewhere around this time on some railways
