Robert is the son of William & Jane Jeanette Armour. He married #1 Susannah Gray-who is buried with him-sister of Archibald Gray.
After her death he married Mrs. Mary Smith Bryan Goodwyn widow of John-
Apparently she too is buried w/her husband in Upson.
The 10 known children of Robert & Susannah are:
Emily Greer 21 Feb 1809,Mary Jane 21 Sep 1810,Catherine Riley 7 Feb 1812, William James 31 May 1813, Eliabeth 11 Apr 1815, Johnathon Thomas 7 Mar 1817, Harriet 16 Mar 1819, Martha Caroline 30 Mar 1821,Cynthia Amanda 24 Jun 1823, Susannah Sophronia 17 May 1826. (You will find these names used previously in the families of this couple)

The Graves are in an enclosed stone wall (See picture) and there is also a baby grave there, which I fell in the first time I visited, many years ago, as I climbed the wall.
The stones have recently been cleaned and so many have dissapeared snce that time, completely, thanks to time and special help from Hunters who actually had a stand among the graves and rode their 3 and 4 wheelers over them until they were gone. The land has passed to the hands of a family member who put a fence around the graveyard,and she hired people to do what they could to restore it. I have old and new pictures of the wall on my ancestry page.
