Robert Angelo Weaver, second child of Robert H. Weaver and Olivia Watson Weaver, Stephenson, was born in Shelby County, Tennessee, December 24, 1872. He was educated in the private schools of Memphis, and from June, 1900 to 1903, he was a student at Vanderbilt University in the academic department. He joined the Methodist Church when twelve years old, and has remained in that church ever since, being now a teacher and assistant superintendent in the First Methodist Church Sunday School, of Memphis. Since leaving college, he has been engaged in growing cotton near Memphis, and in the cotton factors' business in that city, being a member of the firm of W. A. Gage & Co.

On July 27, 1897, Robert Weaver was married to Miss Georgia May Allen, daughter of Hon. John M. Allen, of Tupelo, Mississippi. On June 22, 1898, a son was born unto them, who bears his father's name. On September 28, 1899, a daughter was born, who bears her mother's name. On July 5, 1901, God blessed them with yet another son, who was named for his grandfather, John Allen. On February 6, 1904, another daughter was given to them, who bears her mother's sister's name—Annie Belle. All the children are living.

Amelia O., daughter of Robert H. Weaver and his wife, Olivia Watson Stephenson, married Mr. Hildebrand, of Memphis. They have some children. Mrs. Hildebrand's health was failing in Memphis, so they went to Amarillo, Texas, where her health is much better.

Burchett M., their youngest son, is now in college.
