Other Events:
- Occupation: Solicitor
Notes:
He was Coroner of the county of Northampton for 55 years, and High Steward of the Manor & Borough of Brackley until he retired in 1858.
He was elected a Burgess in 1858 and in the following year Alderman and subsequently Mayor of Brackley.
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?
