[7] Address: He: Raylands She: Marsh Side Notes - From Robert Park [August 2008 via Genes]
"Robert Woodburn did marry Elizabeth Harrison. They had no children together though, and family hearsay tells us that the unfortunate woman ended up in an asylum (though I have discovered no records which prove this). Either way, Robert was evidently unconcerned with the plight of his wife, as he went on to have six children, out of wedlock, with Alice Park, my ancestor. Elizabeth Harrison died in Bootle Workhouse in 1913. It's a cruel world!"
