Esockville(?) County of Leeds Ontario
That actually says Brockville.
I've found Robert on the 1891 census with the Hughes family in Elmsley South in Leeds and Grenville North although his surname is spelled Odley. Here's a link to the image (line 8 of top page):
http://www.rootschat.com/links/0f7p/This census entry would give further weight to the death crisane found.
James is in Kingston on the 1891 census (as Audly) (line 13 of top page):
http://www.rootschat.com/links/0f7q/The death of Robert Audley on 29 May 1900, is probably not the Robert Audley I am after as it has been sugested that Robert Audley married a Hattie F Willey. and they had a child in 1901. I suspect Roberts surname changed from Audley to Audlee.
I saw that information posted in a family tree at Ancestry and, I don't mean any offence, I think it's wrong given the census information available. There is a Robert with the surname listed as Ardley in Northbridge, MA on the 1900 US census with a wife named Florence and a daughter Beatrice. He indicates he was a painter and born in New York in Jul 1867. He also indicates he and Florence were married in 1892.
On the 1910 census he and Hattie F are in Veazie, Maine with children F. Beatrice and Gerald (both born MA). He is still listed as a painter but gives a birth year of 1873 in England but an immigration of 1865! Hattie says it's her second marriage but Robert his first although I think that's wrong and Florence and Hattie were his first and second wives respectively. The birth record for Gerald at the LDS site would seem to confirm this as well as his mother is listed as Florence Pierce:
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-267-11627-175197-38?cc=1536925however Florence's birth (as Florine) indicates her mother's name was Florence Kingsley:
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-267-12894-113769-20?cc=1536925The information listed for Florence on both births would seem to indicate they are the same person. Perhaps she was married more than once or Kingsley or Pierce was her middle name and not her maiden surname.
On the 1920 census the four are in Stoughton, MA but this time Robert says he was born in England in 1869, immigrated in 1870 and became a naturalized citizen in 1891.
Although the census information is inconsistent regarding age and birth place, one thing that is consistent is this Robert is between 5-10 years older than the Robert who was a home child.
