Hi Amy, I am sorry to say, I can't find a definite connection with your JAMES MADISON RICHARDSON. I do have a THOMAS RICHARDSON born 1817 in TN,married 1/1/1844 in Ark.to ELIZA PUGH,he died 1860 Johnson Co.TX; but that can't be yours, he has different parents, Joshoah and Mary(Cook)Richardson. Sorry, wish I could have helped;will keep your data, just in case it fits later on,Eleonore http://members.xoom.com/Mandaley/
