In the Kinburn Baptist Cemetery in Fitzroy is a gravestone with a Robert Story who died Dec. 23, 1905 or 1906, aged 7x years old (can’t read), buried with his wife Margaret Johnston, who died aged 76 who died in 1904.

There is also a Robert Story listed as deputy reeve of Fitzroy from 1865-1867.

There is mention of Robert Story Sr. sporting a long beard, in the “Beyond our Memory: a history of the Fitzroy township”.
