The township clerk added a note, almost illegible:

The name of the above child was changed by request before sending to county registrar. (Signed) T. Ballingal (Township registrar).

This is a little unusual in that the name as originally intended is not shown.

Robert went with his parents to the U.S. in 1886. He was farming in North Dakota and married to Florence at the time of the 1900 census. By 1910 he is a Presbyterian minister in Wallowa, Oregon. In 1920, still a minister, he is in Yakima, Washington, and his parents, Thomas and Catherine Carrick are with him.
