He may have also later married to a Lucy, and was living with his mother & wife in 1930 in Detroit.Emma was listed as married but her husband was not listed with them, although there was a blank line underneath Emma's name.In 1940 Emma was living with her married daughter, Luella (husband Peter Hassell).So, presumably Robert died sometime between 1930 & 1940.Sorry I could not find more on him.Good luck in your search.
