I am doing a research for my wife. Her Gr Gr Grandfather was John Harlan Ritchey. There has been some question on the middle name. This was taken from relatives scratch pads. John H. RICHIE was born on April 10, 1800 in Princeton, Caldwell/Livingston Co. Ky.. Under the name RICHIE. He married Margaret DRENNAN in Sangamon, Co. Il. on Feb. 10, 1825, under the name RITCHIE. He died in Mt. Pleasant, Ia. on Dec. 19, 1869 and is buried in Carter Cemetery under the name RITCHEY. I would like to find the parents and brothers and sisters (If he had any) of John H. RICHIE. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ John Ritchey & Margaret Drennan's Children & Grand children: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Children of Robert Richie and Martha Webster: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ William D.
