Married to Eliz. Gilbert. They had three children- a son William P., two daughters-Dorothy & Margery. I have a picture of the family taken in Butte 1/20/1909. He was partener with a Samuel G. Roberts in a printing firm & began publishing the "Butte Tribune Review". Samual sold his interest to Richard in 1921 and went to N.Y. From my research, I suspect that the family has died out as my son will be the last of this family. Any information that you locate will finish my research. Thanks
