RICHARDSON, WILLIS, PICKENS, WASSON, McLEAN, PUCKETT, PUGH I recently made a swing through Wilkes and Richmond Counties in Georgia and Maury Co. in Tennessee looking for evidence to connect my 5G grandfather, Thomas RICHARDSON, father of Willis RICHARDSON (d. 1838, Maury Co., TN) to the Thomas RICHARDSON of Wilkes Co., GA, who was the son of William RICHARDSON (b. < 1755, d. 1807). I found a lot materials full of suggestions but no cinching proof. My mother and grandmother lived in the same house with the widow and daughter of Willis Burkett RICHARDSON in Lawrenceburg, TN (in other words, for a while it was a four-generation household). They spent a great deal of effort documenting other aspects of family history but treated the RICHARDSON family lore as a given. I am trying to fill in the undocumented gaps. There were many WILLIS and RICHARDSON families in Wilkes Co. I know that RICHARDSONs from Wilkes Co., GA, who were married to WILLISes, moved to Maury Co. in the early 1800s, but I have not yet found records connecting my Willis RICHARDSON to them, only family lore. Can anyone help with this? I will be glad to swap what I have found with others who are interested in RICHARDSON and WILLIS details. Macalyne Watkins Fristoe Lafayette, IN Transplanted Tennessean
