Schuyler Richardson--b. KY, in Howard, Macon Cty MO 1830's-1850's
Hi, My name is Alison Bigbee....I am researching my RICHARDSON family from Kentucky, Howard and Macon County, Missouri.My 3x's ggrandfather was John Harvey Richerson (the way it was spelled in the 1900 Oklahoma census and on his tombstone--born December 1837 in Missouri, died 1904 in Roger Mills County, Oklahoma)I have been searching a long time for his parents in the 1850 Missouri census --I knew that he was born in Missouri and he stated his parents were born in Kentucky, but because of the spelling variation of the last name, I had some trouble finding them.
I finally did last week and it has led me to research in Howard County/Macon County, Missouri.John Harvey Richerson/Richardson's parents were SCHUYLER RICHARDSON (b. abt. 1813 in Kentucky) and MINERVA (Patterson) (b. abt. 1812 in Kentucky.)I found the family in the 1850 Macon County, MO census (District #52)--John Harvey's siblings were Lucinda (age 12), James F. (age 7), Sarah M. (age 4) and Rice (an infant.)I also found a marraige record on the Howard County genweb page for Schuyler Richardson to Minerva Patterson--they were married February 13, 1834 in Howard County, MO.
I am writing to see if anyone could help me with my Schuyler Richardson family.....In the 1850 Macon County census, there was a Jesse E. Richardson (age 50, born KY) married to a Lean (Leah ?-age 50) living one page over from my Schuyler that could be related, also.
I understand from an ancestral file that Minerva Patterson's parents were Thomas Patterson and Mary Jane (Polly) Harvey--daughter of William Harvey---these families are from Madison County, Kentucky.
Any help with the Schuyler Richardson family or any direction you could point me to research would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you so much in advance!
Alison Bigbee
