Someone (cannot remember who) was looking for info on George W Richardson. As I was looking back over saved data, I came across this. Hope it will help someone. HTML>Subj: [SCMARION-L] RICHARDSON Date: 6/30/99 12:48:15 PM Eastern Daylight Time From: AmyWM@aol.com Reply-to: SCMARION-L@rootsweb.com To: SCMARION-L@rootsweb.com I'm brand new to your list and wondered if anyone here is researching the surname RICHARDSON. My research indicates my Richardson family may have come from Marion County or surrounding area. In particular I'm trying to track Thomas S. Richardson, born 1816 somewhere in SC. There are so very many Richardsons listed in the 1850 Marion County, SC census with the right names! My Thomas' children were named: James R., John B., William Thomas, Jacob Francis, Wood R. and George W. I haven't a clue about the names of Thomas parents. I'm just praying that maybe he named his sons after his father, grandfather or brothers..... all of these children were born after 1861 in Texas. Any help is sincerely appreciated!
