Still Looking!! 4 Parents of Richard Richardson b. abt. 1846 TN
Hi There, I'm still looking for the family & parents of my Great grandfather Richard Richardson/Ritchardson, born about 1846 in Tennessee.
I think Richard was married at least twice: he & first wife, Rosa, appear in Sumner County TN on the 1870 census. They have two sons listed: William, born about 1868, TN & Grant, 5 months, TN.
Living next door is the family of Benjamin Maybry/Mayberry, with children: Josephine, AMELIA/Omeda, Caroline, George, Mary, Bennie, Jane, & Cora.
By 1880 census, either by death or divorce of wife #1, ROSA & baby Grant, has disappeared and Richard is shown married to (the next door neighbor's daughter) AMELIA/Omeda Mabry, born about 1853, TN & married about 1870.
Along with their children: William age 11, David age 10 (could this be Grant David or David Grant?)
John age 7, Sarah age 5, Rbt J. age 4, & Allice age 2.
There are two more children born to Richard & Amelia/Omeda.
Loney Green, born 11/3/1882 Henry Co,TN &
By 1884 This family moved to Green County, Missouri & the last son was born: OBIDIAH "Obie", born 7/15/1884.
Please reply, if you know any info on the family. I would really like to know/find Richard's parents.
Thank you, in advance.
