Great. I have that now.
Problem here is how I find out what happened to his father, also Robert Spruston and how I go back from here. I haven't found any death records or any other records for Spruston further back but I guess that Robert Spruston, the one that was married to Mary Gilmour should have died shortly after Robert (Cunningham)'s birth in 1847 but no records yet and no marriage records to Mary Gilmour as yet. Might be a brick wall.
