4. | Robert Hart was born on 5 Jan 1777 in Avondale, Strathavon, Lanarkshire, Scotland (son of James Hart and Isabel Broom); died on 14 Sep 1867; was buried in Glen Avon Family Vault, Glen Avon farm, Somerset East, Eastern Cape, South Africa. Other Events and Attributes:
Notes: Robert Hart (1776-1867) came from Strathavon in Lanarkshire, and as a young man joined the 78th Highland Regiment. The newly formed National Convention of the French Republic had just declared war on Great Britain and Holland, and was preparing to take possession of the Cape. So the British decided to take it first and immediately despatched Admiral Elphinstone with a fleet, which anchored in Simon's Bay in 1795. Robert Hart's regiment under General Craig was sent out with the troops that were to occupy the Cape. At this time the Cape was torn asunder by political intrigues and revolt against the bankrupt and despotic Dutch East India Company, and Graaff-Reinet and Swellendam had declared themselves Republics, but agreed to come under British rule. Robert married Hannah May Tamplin on 10 Apr 1804 in Saint Peters Port, Guernsey. Hannah (daughter of Richard Tamplin and Susannah Randle) was born on 30 Jul 1777 in Chorlwood, Sussex, England; died on 3 Sep 1852 in Glen Avon, Somerset East, Eastern Cape, South Africa.
