Robert Vickery (or Vicary) was born about 1804 in Devon, England.
Robert marries Mary Westcott in Devon, England before 1932 and they have 3 children: 2 sons and 1 daughter.
Robert appears in the 1851 Census as Robert Vicary aged 47 years born Chumleigh, Devonshire, married and works at Farmer At 139 Acres 1 Lab: his wife Mary Vicary aged 50 years born in Chumleigh, Devonshire; their 3 children Francis (18), Elizabeth (17) and John (14). There also shows his brother-in-law Richard Stevens (60) also born in Chumleigh, Devonshire [1].
In the 1841 census, Robert Vicary is shown as head of house with his wife Mary (35-39) nee Westcott, Francis (9), Elizabeth (7), John (4) and it appears another relative Susan Westacott (20-24) [2].
Robert travelled to New Zealand on the Barque Empress arriving in Auckland in Mar 1868. Also lists Francis (son) and John (son) and Elizabeth (in one article says she is John's wife and in another just says Elizabeth. Elizabeth Vickery is also John's sister and we believe she stayed in England). There is no mention of Mary Vickery or Vicary coming with them.
He passed away in 1874 aged 70 years and is buried in the Tikorangi Cemetery, Taranaki, New Zealand with his two sons and daughter-in-law [3].
