Dan, Sorry it took so long to get back with you. I have looked through all my Richardson files and can't find any names that "exactly" match your William Wallace Richardson born 1825. Unfortunately many of the names I have in file do not have initials or middle names. Many out of my line went through VA, SC, GA, LA, MS and TX, also MO. Is there a chance this child of Jesse and Margaret is your William? I'm really sorry. This is the only William Richardson I have that comes close to the birthdate you are searching. Amy McCroskie Denver, CO JESSE RICHARDSON was born Abt. 1803 in Kentucky, and died in Henry, Missouri. He married MARGARET SMITH July 24, 1822 in Hardin, Kentucky. She was born Bef. 1801.
