Gina, In A. B. Wright's Autobiography, published by his son, Rev. Wright states, on page 48: "In January of this year (1864) one-half mile from my home in a battle between some of Beatty's and Ferguson's men, Hiram Richardson, John Smith and Thomas Riley, Confederates, were killed." Is this Hiram Richardson perhaps Henry H. Richardson?
