Willie, William Madison Richardson was the son of Henry Oscar & Mary Ann (Wood) Richardson, and Yes he is in my husband's family line. Mary Ann Wood Richardson is supposedly buried in New Hope Cemetery. I talked with my Father in law and he said The Richardson's "Lived" in the Wolf River area, but are not buried in the Wolf River cemetery. John H. Richardson died abt.1848 in Wolf River, Abigail Richardson died after 1860 My husband's direct line is through John and Abigail's son Henry H. Richardson & Mary Gray Richardson. Henry H. Richardson was supposedly killed by the David Tinker Beaty gang, on March 26, 1863. I am pretty much interested in any Richardson information, because they all pretty much tie in together. Is it possible for me to come and take photos of the cemetery on your land?? Thank you for all your help.
