"He then married Lydia Finegan (1864-1898) at Camden, New Jersey, in the United States on 9 February 1888. They had four children together, the first born in the United States, and the rest in Canada... Robert farmed in Washington State and then British Colombia. Conflicting stories exist about the death of Robert’s second wife, Lydia. Her death occurred at Fairview in British Columbia, Canada, on 15 November 1898. In one version, she died during childbirth; in the other, Robert was driving a horse and buggy when it was struck by a train."

"Mrs. Robert Hynds: Lydia - her husband either ran or owned the Junction Ranch - on the beginning of the White Lake Road from Kaleden. She died in childbirth; the doctor had to come from Kelowna, so that puts it at around 1896-7 in the interim while Dr. Boyce moved up there from Fairview, and Dr. White arrived in May of 1897."
