Robert married Mary Stone about 1674, in Charles, Maryland, British Colonial America. They were the parents of at least 2 sons and 4 daughters. In 1680, at the age of 33, his occupation is listed as high sheriff. He died on 23 July 1689, in Charles, Maryland, British Colonial America, at the age of 42, and was buried in Saint Ignatius Cemetery, Port Tobacco, Charles, Maryland, United States.Michael Doyne, of Dublin and Antrim, son of Teig Reagh, was dispossessed under the Cromwellian Act of Confiscation of 1652, but his widow obtained a decree of Innocence in 1662, by which all the lands subject to her inheritance were restored to her only son, Robert.
