DAVID RICHARDSON - GALVESTON DAILY NEWS
I'm still looking for any info re David Richardson, b. abt. 1819 in England, m. (1) Eliza Oates in England, m (2) Jennie ? in USA.David and Eliza had 8 children as follows:
Sophia b. 1839 England
Annie b. 1841 England
Louisa b. 1844 England
David b. 1845 England
Eliza b. 1847 Isle of Man
Frederick b. 1848 Louisanna
Mary b. 1855 Galveston, TX
George b. 1856 USA
David and family emigrated to USA in 1848, where he soon became employed by the Galveston Daily News as editor/publisher and co-owner with Wilbur Richardson (no relation), and he died in New York (city or state?) in 1871.
All of the above info obtained from both 1850 and 1860 census records, and the online "Handbook of Texas".
Thank you for any assistance.
