Hi Clinton Yes - I found that! Quite certain it is the right Robert. I had some information from the Records Office that didn't quite add up and wanted to check. Robert could be a relative though I have my doubts. But you never know! My Richmonds seem to all be from Goosnargh. Thank you for your efforts Sincerely Sally Hello Sally, Just some further information that may be of some help to you.
