General Notes
Robert Allan Jaffrey was the infant son of Robert Jaffrey and Isabella Ferguson. He was either stillborn, or he died so soon after birth that he was not even baptized. The only mention of his existence is on the family gravestone.
Note: Birth and death year is estimated (although obviously wee Robert A. Jaffrey must have been born before 1826 when another son — who did survive to adulthood — was given the name Robert Allan Jaffrey). Also, while the gravestone only gives the middle initial A, it seems a reasonable assumption that A stands for "Allan" based both on his grandmother's surname and the middle name of the surviving brother Robert.
