The Robert and Eliza Swift Family of Blackburn Saline County Missouri

2016

My paternal great grandparents Robert and Elia (Piggot) Swift immigrated from Rawdon, Canada, to Blackburn, Missouri, for better farmland. They raised five girls and four boys, including my grandfather Albert Arron Swift. Later, they moved to Mesa, Arizona, near their son Sam's fruit farms, and died there in 1913, one week apart.
