Hi Jonathan,
Richard is somewhat of a mystery but there is some information contained in The History of Crawford County. This work records his name as "Richard T. Garrigus". That spelling would seem to point to his having descended from the New Jersey Garrigues family. David Garrigus migrated to Ohio between 1806-1812 and his son Jeptha Garrigus had numerous children who prospered in the various counties in OH.
Richard Humphreys Garrigues was born in Philadelphia on October 22, 1815 and moved to Columbiana County, OH.
