Pickering and Neatby both give his date of death as 1893, but records seem certain it was actually 1888. Maybe confusion came in with his wife's death being in 1893?
Many references to R.F.K. in Noel .. His son also R.F.K. contributed to periodicals too - this sometimes makes references to them confusing!
