Biography

Robert was born in 1850. He passed away in 1934.

" It is with deep regret that our citizens will learn of the death at his home, Longworth Avenue, yesterday morning of Mr Robert N. Cox. The deceased, though in his 84th year was remarkably active showing much of his old-time vigor and energy. He walked from his residence down town and back on Monday and seemed to be about in his usual condition of health. His sudden passing came as a great shock to the family.

His beloved wife, nee Elizabeth Sutherland passed away on October 18 1931. A son Rusell predeceased him.

There are left to mourn two sons, Lloyd at Morell and Fred at Charlottetown, and daughters Miss Edith, Superintendent of the Robert Brigham Hospital of Boston, Mass; Mrs Rev C. F. Lancaster, Reading Mass and Miss Alice of Charlottetown."
