    6011 Robert came from what is know Lodi,Seneca County, New York in 1799 to the town of Hector where he had lived for five years. He settled on lot No.2.. "He drove his cattle from there on the Indian trail, and sent his up in a scow." He married Abigail Brown, whose sister, Sophia, married Robert's brother James. The following is taken from a Curry History written by James L. Curry, a grandson of James and Sophia Curry, in 1905. Abigail and Sophia were born in New Jersey and the daughters of William Brown, a scotchman, who it is stated was an officer in the Revolutionary War, belonging to Lee's Legion, and was killed in Battle. Abigail and Sophia's mother(madian Hulette?), was a full blooded French woman and sister(Andrew's note: "sister" not possibly, Dick Hunnewell was not French and was also born in the mid 1600's-to old to be a sister, also if she is a sister, woudnt her name be Hunnewell, not Hullette?) to the celebrated trapper, hunter, and Indian fighter, known as Dick Hunnewell. The Indians burned his house, killed his wife and two children, and took him prisoner and got everything ready to burn him at the stake. Inside the circle he seized the chief and hurled him into the fire and then in the confusion that followed, made his escape. From that time on, he hunted Indians, and marks on his rifle stock numbered twenty-seven that he had killed. Curry, Robert (I188)
     
    6012 Robert came to America from Ireland between 1842 and 1846. Robert owned a farm in Bath, Steuben County, NY. In 1850 his farm was valued at $1,200 and in 1870 his farm was valued at $5,500 and personal property at $1,500. Dobbin, Robert (I11996)
     
    6013 Robert came to America with his three sons, Edward, Thomas and Henry and bought land in Milton, Mass., 7/13/1654 [Babcock Genealogy, p. 28].

    He was noted as a "gentleman of Dorchester" on 7/13/1654 when he purchased about 500 acres of property ( the estate of one John Glover, a leading citizen of the town) for the sum of " 300 and four score pounds sterling." This is the first mention of Robert's name in New England. The 500 acres was mostly in that part of Dorchester which was incorporated into the town of Milton in 1662; he was the largest landholder in Milton at that time.

    Robert was one of the three petitioners for the incorporation of Milton, MA and was a prominent citizen. In 1664, he gave the town 8 acres of land for church purposes near Vose's Lane and Center St.
    He was received to full communion with the Milton Church on 7/17/1681 and was the first person to be admitted so after the ordination of the Rev. Peter Thacher on 6/1/1681. Mr. Thacher was the first pastor of that church.

    He lived in what is now known as the old Glover House, near the junction of Canton Avenue and Brook Road.

    In 1655, he with his two sons assisted in "running the Lyne;" in 1656, he had his "40 akers" laid out towards the Blue Hills and in 1657 he was a "supervisor of the hieways;" in 1659, one of the four chosen to lay out the common lands, and in 1662, one of the three petitioners for the incorporation of the town of Milton.

    On 5/30/1666, he was admitted to the freedom of the Colony. In 1669 and in 1677, he was one of the selectmen of the town, and in other years served on various committees. 
    Vose, Robert (I497)
     
    6014 Robert Came to New England (Newport, RI) from England about1650. Supposedly, William Burdick was a shipmaster, who wassailing between England and New England about the time RobertBurdick immigrated, was the father of Robert.
    Robert Burdick was admitted freeman 5/22/1655. Moved toWesterly, Washington Co., Rhode Island , before 1651.
    Robert and Ruth (Hubbard) Burdick had 12 children.
    9/25/1683, Samuel Hubbard, having returned to Newport, from ajourney to Rye, etc., detailed some events of the trip. Hesays, "At Westerly, the first day after the Sabbath, brotherBurdick buried a son." and among others there, were grandsonJohn Phillips and Ruth his wife, and Benjamin Burdick. "A verygreat burial, above twenty horses."

    "Newport Seventh Day Baptist Trilogy"; by Ilou M. Sanford andDon A. Sanford; Heritage Books Inc.; 1998, p 87.
    "Robert Burdick was baptised as a member of the First BaptistChurch of Newport on 11/16/1652 and represented the church inits struggle against the persecution of dissenters from theestablished church in Massachusetts. He and Tobias Saunderswere arrested in 1662 and sentenced to two years in Boston jailbut were eventually released in a prisoner exchange. He wasamong the earliest settlers of the Western section of RhodeIsland. He was listed as a member of the Newport Seventh DayBaptist Church in its 1692 record. He died Oct. 25, 1692."
     
    Burdick, Robert (I18186)
     
    6015 Robert came to New England in the "Abigail" in July 1635 and settled at Braintree,MA. He removed to Rehoboth in 1643 and was there proprietor and held several town offices. He later removed to Muddy River in Roxbury,MA where he died a few years later. Sharp, Robert (I4432)
     
    6016 Robert Curry served as Lieutenant, 1776, in Col. Samuel Hunter's
    Northumberland County, Pennsylvania regiment. He was scalped by the
    Indians near Fort Mead, on the north branch of the Susquehanna.
    "Two years previously, in May, 1780, Robert CURRY and his wife,
    traveling on horseback from Northumberland, on the way to their little
    farm on the Mahoning, when about midway between the two places, were
    attacked by the savages. He was killed and scalped and his skull
    broken to fragments with their tomahawks. She was taken prisoner. Her
    hair was long and jet black, which they greatly admired. They told her
    she was 'a much pretty squaw,' and would not hurt her. They traveled
    until night when they encamped. They then tied her hands and feet with
    hickory bark. Soon they were in a profound sleep, when she cut the
    bark from her wrists and ankles. She had concealed a pair of scissors
    about her person which, fortunately for her, escaped their vigilant
    search when she was first made captive. She fled from their camp as
    fast as possible, but they soon missed her and, lighting torches,
    pursued her in all directions.She concealed herself in the top of a
    fallen tree. They passed over the trunk of the tree and, as they did
    so, cried out: 'Come out, squaw, we see you. Come out, pretty squaw,
    we see you.' After some time spent in fruitless search they abandoned
    it, broke up their camp before daylight and pursued their journey. She
    then returned to the remains of her murdered husband and gathering up
    the pieces of his skull in her apron, took them to her house which she
    reached the next day. The agony and deep distress of this poor woman
    may be conceived, but the pen utterly fails to describe them."
    ROBERT CURRY (deceased) is numbered among the earliest settlers of
    this part of Pennsylvania. He was born in the North of Ireland, June
    9, 1741; educated in the schools of his native country, where his
    father was a well-to-do linen manufacturer. He immigrated to America
    in 1772, settling on Mahoning Creek, in what is now Valley Township,
    Montour Co., Penn., and there followed farming. He was killed and
    scalped by the Indians June 9, 1780. He was a Presbyterian in
    religious belief and was one of the first to give his money and
    influence toward the propagation of the gospel in these parts, and was
    also trustee of his church. He married Miss Jane McWILLIAMS in
    Belfast, Ireland, and four children were born to them: James, who was
    born in Ireland, grew to manhood and settled in Ohio; Robert, who
    settled on the north branch of the Susquehanna River; William, who
    settled on the home place in Valley Township, Columbia Co., Penn., and
    Jane, the first white child born between the north and west branches
    of the Susquehanna River, married to Robert McWILLIAMS. The sons were
    well-to-do farmers, noted for their honesty and integrity. (History of
    Columbia and Montour Counties Pennsylvania, Battle, 1887, Danville,

    6017 Robert D. "Bob" Burdette, 73, of 365 Seneca Rd., died Sunday morning (Sept. 16, 2001) at Robert Packer Hospital in Sayre, Pa., after a short illness.
    Born in Hornell on Sept. 5, 1928, he was the son of the late Charles and Margaret Hall (Dudgeon) Burdette.
    A life long resident of Hornell and North Hornell, Bob was a graduate of Hornell High School and served with the U.S. Army from 1946-1948. He was employed at the former Erie Railroad Accounting Bureau in Hornell from 1948-1960, retiring at the age of 55 from Region 6 New York State Department of Transportation in Hornell, where he was employed as a Principal Engineering Technician.
    Bob was a member of the Arthur H. Cunningham American Legion Post No. 440 and the Cpl. J.J. Mooney V.F.W. Post No. 2250 in Hornell. He was also an avid reader and sportsman and loved the peace, beauty and the simplicity of the outdoors, especially the past 15 years of family enjoyment at Black Lake.
    His family includes his wife of 47 years, the former Carolyn Gaffney, who he married in St. Ann's Church in Hornell; his daughter, Karen (Bill) Bush and his grandson, Byran Bush, all of Rochester; his step-mother, Elizabeth Burdette of Canisteo; his three sisters, Susan (Tom) Powers of Rochester, Barbara (Dick) Metzler of Lancaster, Pa. and Mary Burdette of Grafton, N.H.; his brother, Charles (Susie) Burdette Jr. of Washington Crossing, Pa.; his cousins, Charles (Laura) Davis, Herman (Earla) Davis, Dorothy (Stan) Smith, Richard (Deanne) Edell, all of Hornell; his cousins-in-law, John DeVinney and Joe (Helen Marie) DeVinney of Canaseraga; his sisters-in-law, Ellen Ragiel and Mary Lou (George) Phillips; his niece, Dana Ragiel; his nephews, Michael, Robert, Christopher and George Phillips, Stephan and Sean Ragiel; and also his close friends, Jim and Lucy Wiley, Frank and Phyllis Bottomley, Mary and Jean Cortese, John O'Driscoll and Floyd and Charlene Loper, all of Hornell.

    6019 Robert de Ros (c. 1182-1226/7), kinsman through marriage of Eustace de Vesci, and the son of Everard de Ros and Roese, née Trussebut, was a Yorkshire lord, the owner of extensive estates centring on Helmsley in the North Riding of Yorkshire and Wark-on-Tweed in Northumberland. He was married, at an unknown date, to Isabella, an illegitimate daughter of William the Lion, king of Scotland, and widow of Robert III de Brus.

    In the early 1200s Robert is found co-operating actively with King John, witnessing a number of his charters, chiefly at locations in northern England, and in 1203 assisting in the king’s defence of Normandy, where by descent from his mother he held the hereditary office of bailiff and constable of Bonneville-sur-Touques in the lower part of the duchy. In 1205, however, a year of rising political tension, there are signs that his relations with the king were worsening, and John ordered the seizure of his lands and, apparently shortly afterwards, had his son taken hostage. Robert, a little later, recovered his lands, but an indication that he might have been interested in leaving England is given by his acquisition of a licence to pledge his lands for crusading. It is not known, however, if he ever actually did embark for the East.

    In 1212 Robert seems to have entered a monastery, and on 15 May that year John handed over custody of his lands to one Philip de Ulcot. His monastic profession, however, cannot have lasted for long, for on 30 January 1213 John appointed him sheriff of Cumberland, and later in the same year he was one of the witnesses to John’s surrender of his kingdom to the pope. In 1215, as relations between the king and the baronial opposition worsened, John seems to have tried to keep Robert on his side, ordering one of his counsellors to try to secure the election of Robert’s aunt as abbess of Barking. By April, however, Robert was firmly on the baronial side, attending the baronial muster at Stamford and, after June, being nominated to the committee of twenty-five.

    When war between the king and his opponents broke out towards the end of the year, Robert was active on the baronial side, forfeiting his lands as a result and suffering the capture of his son at the battle of Lincoln in May 1217. After Louis returned to France, Robert submitted to the new government and recovered most, although not all, of his lands. He witnessed the third and definitive reissue of Magna Carta on 11 February 1225. Sometime before 1226 he retired to a monastery and he died either in that year or early in 1227. At some stage he was received into the ranks of the Templars and on his death he was buried in the Temple Church in London, where a few years earlier William Marshal, the one-time Regent had been buried. An effigy in that church sometimes associated with him dates from at least a generation later.

    Robert is an enigmatic individual who had close ties with Eustace de Vesci but did not openly join the rebellion until just before Runnymede. He probably felt a conflict between his sense of loyalty to his fellow Northerners and his obligation of obedience to the king.

    6029 Robert Mason was killed as part of the Bolton Massacre in 1644.

    Bolton was a centre of Puritanism, and in the Civil War of the 17th Century it was a Parliamentarian outpost, surrounded by Royalist areas. In 1642 civil war began between king and parliament. The people of Bolton solidly supported parliament but most of the people in the rest of Lancashire supported the king. The people of Bolton built earthwork defences around the town and waited for the royalists to attack. The royalists came in February 1643 but they were beaten off. Then in January 1644 parliament sent 3,000 men to garrison Bolton. The royalists attacked Bolton again in March 1644 but once again they were beaten off.

    Finally in May 1644 the royalists made a determined attempt to capture Bolton. Prince Rupert's army of 10,000 men were joined by troops under the leadership of the Earl of Derby, and stormed the town on May 28th 1644 from Deane Moor. This time they succeeded. This was the third major assault against Bolton, of the 3000 local troops led by Colonel Rigby. After a brief siege they broke through the defences. Once inside the town the royalists massacred many of the parliamentary soldiers. Perhaps as many as 1,000 died and another 700 were taken captive. It became known as the Bolton Massacre. Robert Mason was among those killed that day.

    After Cromwell's Parliamentarian victory, Charles I was executed in 1649. In 1651 his son led an uprising to try and regain his throne. The uprising failed and the Earl of Derby, James Stanley was hunted down and captured in Cheshire. After a three day trial, he was taken to Bolton, spent his last hours at Ye Olde Man and Scythe public house, then was beheaded in Churchgate on October 15th 1651. In his speech from the scaffold he denied responsibility for the Bolton Massacre.

    6031 Robert Prentice of Roxbury, MA. Binney says that Robert was born in 1635 and relates that the old parish register of Nazing, England has this entry: Elizabeth Prentice, dau. of Robert Prentice, and Elizabeth his wife, was baptized April 20, 1635." Possibly this may be the Robert who came to Roxbury and perhaps his wife, Elizabeth or that child may have died in England the year he came to America. Comment: Either the date is an error, or James and Thomas, born c. 1629 and c. 1632 cannot be his children nor could he have given a subscription towards a free school in 1645 (see below). It is more likely Robert was born 1600-1610. Comment: Apart from Binney's speculation, nowhere in Binney's 1883 book does he say Robert was ever married or had any specifically identified wife or children. Binney also speculates that Robert was probably a relative of Valentine Prentice of Roxbury who immigrated with Eliot of Nazing in 1631 and probably also a relative of Capt. Thomas Prentice of Newton who administered on Robert's estate and perhaps a relative of the planter, Henry Prentice of Cambridge, MA.
    Comment: Binney's conjecture that he is a relative of Valentine Prentice appears based solely on their both living in Roxbury, the name, Robert, appearing in a Nazing register, and Eliot also living in Roxbury. As indicated above, his likely birth date of 1600-1610 makes him of Valentine's generation, and recent research shows he is not a brother of Valentine. Binney's statement about his relationship to Thomas is based on a statement by James Savage that Robert's inventory was presented for probate by his brother, Thomas Prentice of Newton, MA. Binney offers no evidence to support his conjecture that Robert is a relative of Henry. In 1645, Aug. 31, Robert Prentice gave a year's subscription towards a free school in Roxbury, MA according to Ellis' History of Roxbury, MA. Sept 20, 1658, Sergeant John Ruggles' inventory, Roxbury, credits Robert Prentice for work, and William Peacock's inventory of 22 Jan 1660 mentions him (see NEHGR, v. x, pg. 267). On 25 Oct 1664, Robert Prentiss and others signed the Roxbury petition to the General Court about the infringement of their patent. On 7 Feb 1665, Thomas Prentice, of Newton, presented Robert Prentice's inventory to Probate Court, in which on Probate Court records, Boston, is mentioned a house and two acres of land,

    Robert and Elizabeth were attacked in 1677 by the Indian, Symon, who was thought to be a friend of the family. Robert was killed and Elizabeth wounded and left for dead. Elizabeth was appointed administrator of the estate on 10/9/1677; Inventory 8/27/1677; Robert Quinby was administrator; the estate was divided in 1700.

    Poor Weather Possible Cause Of Plane Crash

    BRISTOL CENTER, N.Y. (AP) — A Federal Aviation Agency spokesman says poor weather was probably the cause of a plane crash that has taken the lives of four members of a Honeoye Falls family.

    The wreckage of the single engine private airplane was found Saturday near here, about 15 miles from its takeoff point, after a four day search. Gale Sleight, 35, his wife Sylvia and two of their four children, John, 10, and Lynne, 9, died in the crash. There were no survivors.

    Lt. Col. Charles Dickerhoff of the Civil Air Patrol in Rochester said the Sleight’s plane struck a hill-side near the Bristol Mountain ski resort.

    Sleight, a building contractor, took off from Honeoye Falls early Wednesday morning for a flight to St. Augustine, Fla. The search began when he failed to make periodic radio checks along the route.

    Steuben County News Service - "Couple Flees Burning Home"
    Dairy farmer Shirley Burdett and his wife escaped to safety early yesterday with only the clothese they wore as fire destroyed their two story brick home on Route 70 at Big Creek, about four miles west of Howard. A lapse in telephone service delayed summoning fireman. Temperatures were below zero as Fremont and Howard fireman battled the blaze, finally reported at 6:45AM. A family spokesman said the couple was asleep in the downstairs bedroom and apparently was awakened by the roar of the flames. They got out of the house in their nightclothes through a front entrance, the spokesman said. Nothing was saved from the house, he said. The couple lived there alone. The Burdetts, after fleeing their home, drove to the nearby home of Stanley Drumm. Drumm, a son and son-in-law started for the Burdett place and encountered state police investigating an auto accident on Route 70. The trooper radioed for firefighters. The inside of the house was just one big ball of fire when we got there, said Fremont Fire Chief Richard Smith. He said cuase of the fire and amount of damages were not determined. The Burdetts were staying with a relative.
