He lost his wife during the voyage giving birth to a son, Charles. He also had a daughter Julia. Sometime after their arrival in the US, Richard took an Indian to wife, which caused a great stir in the family. The children departed, dropping the "n" from their name. I am able to trace Charles and his family, but I am at a loss for Richard and Julia. Richard was an indian trader and his field of operations seemed to be easter New York and Vermont. You indicate that you had information. If so I would be very interested. Thank you, Jocelyn Nield Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
