Biography
Agnes was born in 1739. She passed away in 1813. [1]
When he decided to emigrate he hoped first to marry Agnes (Jane) Stuart (5) (1739-1913). Her parents objected to her going to the wilds of America, so he was obliged to sail without her. She became despondent, and Robin returned for her, thus making four trips over the dangerous Atlantic. They settled, as had brother James, in Adams County, Pa., 4 miles south of Gettysburg. According to Martha Speer Boal, they and a slave are buried in Marsh Creek cemetery outside Gettysburg. from Speer/Aiken, Frederic Speer
