Robert Clinton Watrous was the son of LeRoy C. Watrous and Eva Strickland.  His father was the first cousin of our ancestor Henry Reynolds Watrous.  Thus, Robert was the grandson of William Watrous and Harriet Janet Rose.  In 1920 he married Anna Elizabeth Melcer.  They were the parents of one daughter named Virginia.  Robert was a veteran of World War I and was an engineer by profession.

This keepsake photograph is from the collection of Gilbert Jones who is a descendant of William Watrous and Harriet Janet Rose.
