Robert was possibly born in the British Isles. A transcribed page from a Bolt family Bible states the birth date entered here, as well as listing his wife and children. This document has been widely circulated and is attached to this memorial. Note that it is not an original record and so may contain errors. The Bolt surname is identified as having originated in Scotland in many surname references. Family lore suggests Robert may have been born in Ireland or Northern Ireland. These items may combine to support speculation that the Bolts were among the quarter-million "Ulster Scots" who sailed from Ireland to North America. While this may seem probable, further research and documentation are needed.
