He married Emma Lena Snider June 14, 1913 in Prineville, Crook Co., Oregon, By Baptist Minister, C.P. Bailey, daughter of Samuel Snider and Margaret Stewart.

Notes for Robert Solomon Mahaffey:

Robert Solomon lived in Redmond, Oregon in the early 1900's when the community was organized. He was one of Redmond's first lawmen, serving as the city marshal in 1913. He also built some of the sidewalks there. In March, 1917 his residence was listed as Hermiston, Oregon. His occupation was listed as a blacksmith. In 1922 he was living in Roseburg, Oregon. Where he lived after 1922 and until his divorce somewhere around the 1940's is unknown. He later moved to San Leandro, California where he worked as a blacksmith until 1966 when he moved to Bend, Oregon.

I (Leila) remember a 8x10 black and white photograph of him. In the photo he was on a bucking bronc. I also remember in a little house where he lived when I was real little he had a saddle sitting a wooden saw-horse in the livingroom. When we would go visit grandpa I would climb up on the saddle and spend most of the visit there. Grandpa never seem to mind that I played on the saddle. I would pretend I was riding with Annie Oakley or Hopalong Cassidy. We would chase and capture all the bad guys. I still remember the smell of the leather. Whe he lived in San Leandro that he had built, he didn't have the saddle.

When I (Leila) was little, grandpa would take me horse-back riding. I would always nag him to let me ride the big horse. I guess one day he got tired of my nagging and decided to put the "fear of God" in me. He placed me upon what seem to be a very big horse. But what happened next he wasn't expecting. I kick my feet into the horse and said "giddy'up". Fortunately grandpa was holding the reins close to the bit. The next thing I knew I had been pulled off the horse and we were on our way home. I remember having a real clear idea he was not happy with me. While driving home, grandpa repeatedly made me promise not to tell my mother what had happened. He said she wouldn't let him take me riding any more. And he was right. I enjoyed the times he took me riding too much to hamper any chance to go riding with him. I promised over and over I wouldn't. My mother never did find out. I also never nagged grandpa about letting me ride the big horse again.

Children of Robert Mahaffey and Emma Snider are:
