 Includes NotesNotes for Robert Still:
The following if from Des Steel's file
Robert Still, 1643-1712 Robert was a soldier and known in the village as Trooper. In the parish records we find the following for August 6, 1705: Brought to Tropers house 7 copp of straue which comes to carige and all ...........00 9 0
June ye 7 Layed Trooper Still in 100 faggots....................00 6 0
Paid Robert Still his feese for bering (burying) John Wanmer.... 0 2 0
Editorial note: I imagine these amounts are pounds, shillings and pence. So he would have got two shillings for burying John Wanmer.

Robert married Ann Goeble, in Cowden, on April 26, 1675 and she died in 1679, possibly from the fever or, perhaps, in childbirth. The fever was rampant in Cowden at this time. They had one child, Mary.

Robert remarried a Mary, or Marie, about 1682. She died in 1708.

We know from parish account books that there was smallpox in Cowden in 1704 and that Robert Still's family had it. The parish was put to great expense and in December, 1704, and January, 1705, there was great mortality. In 1689 and again in 1704 John Carr, the innkeeper had seven pence "for half a pint of Canarie (wine) for Robert Stills family when they were sick of the Small Pox."
