Biography

Robert and his brother Joshua Doyne (1634-1698) were transported to Maryland from Ireland via Barbados abt 1670 with Jesse Wharton's group. Their Mother, Sarah (Wharton) Doyne (abt.1612-abt.1650), is said to have been a Wharton. Robert named his first son Wharton. They were supposedly from County Wexford, although his Father's profile, William Doyne (abt.1610-1664), lists Carrickfergus as his birthplace.

Though said to have come from Wexford he named his main dwelling Plantation "Carrickfergus" which is a town in Country Antrim, Northern Ireland, 11 miles from Belfast, and another "Sligo" , a County in Northern Ireland.

Robert returned to Ireland and then came back to Maryland in 1680. It is unclear whether they were Catholic or Protestant when they arrived. His wife, Mary (Stone) Doyne (bef.1642-aft.1686) was the daughter of William Stone, who was the first Protestant Governor of Maryland. In his will it is clear that Joshua was a Catholic.

Joshua and brother Robert listed in Early Settlers of Maryland, Gust Skordas, says they were transported to mc c 1670, 'Anglican family from County Wexford, Ireland' who returned to Ireland and then came back to Maryland in 1680.

On 1 Jan 1675 he and his unnamed wife who were among the witnesses of the marriage of Roger Boyden and Susanna Clarke at Robert Thompson's house, the document states the marriage was not lawful (is this because it was Catholic?) Charles Co, Records.
