IMO, Rob is right on here. I think it showed in other areas as well. In 1904 Robert was elected president of the Ekwanok Golf Club in Vermont. The very next year he was elected president of the Chicago Golf Club. He was not a good golfer, and he humorously said to the members of the Chicago Golf Club, "I duly appreciate this compliment which I understand generally to mean that I am supposed to be the worst player in the club. I am president of another club in Vermont on that basis."

My point is that, IMO, being a trustee of a church tells us nothing about Robert's religious beliefs.
