ROBERT Fellow

(Ca 1665 - Bef Feb 1719)



Before Dec 1697, the family had immigrated to Talbot Co, MD. The eldest son, Robert, was likely born in England; the rest in Maryland. If the wedding date of 1696 is correct, it is possible Robert was born to an earlier wife. The Parish register database on FamilySearch had the year as 1690.
