Surnames: RICKARD Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Jm.2ADE/153 Message Board Post: I am tracing my roots, RICKARD. The Rickard family that I am searching is Martin Rickard born 1845 and died 1923.. His wife is Esther. I don't have any info on her except what I found in the 1880 & 1900 census. Martin & Esther had five children: Joseph b.July 1873 in Illinois, Samuel b.March 1877 in Illinois, Andrew b.April 1878 in Illinois, James b. August 1881 in Illinois and William b. April 1885 in Illinois. By 1900 this family was in Nemaha Co., Home Twp., Centralia, Kansas. Haven't been able to find Martin, Esther, Joseph, James and William since the 1900 census. I did find Samuel in 1910 in Russel City, Russell Co., Kansas as follows, Samuel 34, Martha 22 (wife), Edward 6, Martha 5 and Charlie 2/12. Andrew foundin 1920 Clay Co. Fishing River Twp. Excelsior Springs, MO. Andy J. 42, Ell (wife) and Charles 10. All help will be greatly appreciated in finding this family and may be a cousin or two. Thanks so much.
