"Isaac married Sarah COBB of Limerick, York County, Me… They had two children, a daughter named Sophronia, who died about 1843, and one son, Warren Norton ROBERTS, born May 2, 1839, who lived at home in Brooks, Me., until he was twenty years of age, then he taught school in Brooks and other adjacent towns.

In 1876 he was employed by the city of Lowell as janitor for the high school and remained for seventeen years in that position.
