Robert Meader, son of Robert Meader (1743-1815) [0036] and Deborah Coker (1746-1826), was probably born on Nantucket in 1781. He married Polly Bromley of Danby, VT, who was born in 1781 and died in 1848. At first the couple lived in Easton, Washington, NY, where his parents had moved in 1793. Soon they moved to the Plattsburgh, Clinton, NY area, where several of the Quaker families from Danby had settled, some of them relatives of Polly Bromley.

Robert Meader and his wife are buried in the Larkin Cemetery on the Military Turnpike near West Plattsburgh, New York.
