John Richey, the father of Dr. John Richey, fought in the Revolutionary War.  If I remember right he was married to Hattie Cook.  Dr. John Richey would have been too young.  I believe someone has already filed with DAR on John Richey as his widow filed for a pension when he died in 1822 and had to prove his service record.  Hope this helps.  I too, am descended from Dr. John and his father John through Martha and Polly Ann Richey.  Judith Jones ---
