Robert was born in King George County, Virginia. He married Pricilla, and had seven children: James, Grace, Elizabeth, Robert Jr., Charles, William, and John. The children took spouses from the Ball, Elgin, McDavid, and Trussell families. Some collateral families came from Ireland. Their family lived in King George County, Prince William County, and Frederick County, Virginia and later moved to South Carolina. Robert Kay, Sr. was a planter and one of the early settlers of at Broadmouth Creek in Pendleton District (now Anderson County), South Carolina. Robert Kay, Sr. died in 1808.
