Searching for any information on Benjamin Franklin RICH, a blacksmith. He
was born 5 Sept 1849 and died 30 Sept 1889. He married Sarah Ellon Rich.
I don't know if Ellon is a middle or maiden name. I don't have a place of
origin for Benjamin, only where a son was born. I'm also not sure how many
children these two had.
Benjamin Franklin RICH and Sarah Ellon Rich were the parents of Samuel
Andrew Franklin RICH, born 30 Jan 1879 in Goodland, Choctaw Co., OK (what
was then Indian Territory).

Quoting information from a Noah family manuscript by Elizabeth Noah Yost
there appears to be at least one common denominator between the Orange
county VA Nassau-Seigen immigrants and those of Orange county, NC-which was
Michael Holt.
Michael Holt was a very prominent and active leader in the migration from
the Palatine area to VA and NC, and most likely PA as well.
Michael Holt, Thomas Rich, and Peter Noe were among prominent landowners and
civic leaders in the Orange county NC area after 1755. Michael m

I've been researching my ggg-grandfather, Appleton RICH, b. 1804, New York,

There had been a rumor the grave marker of Philopena Rich (wife of Jacob) had
been removed from Old Bean Creek Cemetery of Franklin Co., Tennessee. On

Yes, there is a Jacob of Fayette County, PA. Some of his descendants
have some information about him.
There is some evidence that he may be a brother of John Rich of
Maidstone, VT who came from the Palatine region now part of Germany
in 1751. RFA's "Kinfolk" has some data about this. Right now I
can't look it up but will try to get back to you later.
Anyone else on the Rich-L list have anything on this?

Hi, M L this Jacob you are looking for, is that the Jacob listed in the 1790
census of orange co virginia? there is a jacob listed in the will of
jeremiah rich dated jan 17, 1782, from wake co n. c. that lists j.s three
sons william, jacob, and charles. This Jacob is listed with jeremiah's widow

Looking for my gg grandmother, Sarah Rich. Even though I have a fair
amount of information, I haven't had much luck finding information on

Dear Bobby,
Straight from the local library today, here is the scoop on that 1850
Panola County Texas census record for James not Joseph Rich.
The 1850 Texas census index lists only Joseph Rich in Panola Co Texas
not James Rich. Here are all of the Rich names in that census index:
Rich, Amos Tyler Co Page 168 No TWP L
Rich, Augustus Bexar Co. Page 232 San Anto
Rich, John B. Bexar Co. Page 283 Eagle Pa

Hi all,
Back again because I found some new ancestors and want to see if anybody
else has any of them.
I have Thomas Rich b. 1772 in Pa. m. Mary Ann Berry.
They moved from Fayette Co., Pa to Hamilton County Ohio in 1797. The
father of Thomas is Jacob. I haven't found any more info on Jacob yet.
Thomas had Thomas B., John, and Benjamin as far as I know. there may
be more children.
Thomas B. married Christiana Flommerfelt in Hamilton County, Ohio.
They had children named Eliza, Alfred, Minard, M

There is a great deal of evidence that both the Rich(Reich) and
Noah(Neu/Noe)
families of Orange county NC originated from the Palatine(Saarland-esp
Breitfurt) and there is a good possibility they were Swiss. Many Swiss had
been imported into this area because of the mortality of so many residents
during the long wars.
Also there are a number of circumstantial cases, like MS. Lighthall
mentions,
that seem to connect the PA and VA & NC families. Many of the family records

were there, but found it among the fallen pines and brown leaves. We walked
across a frozen cotton field to get to the site, since it was in January &
very cold. The man who runs the meat processing plant nearby had told us to

Lest you go without an answer, I wanted to mention that Evelyn Rich, in the

Have you checked with the Tremont Historical Society? My great-
grandmother was Lillian May Rich Reed of Bass Harbor. I don't have your

William up in the vital records of Mt. Desert. William is spelled Davies
there. You have probably already run across that.

A member recently introduced some new and interesting information on the
Rich/Neu families of Grainger county TN in the early 1800s. Grainger county
was a center for Rich, Noe, and related lines c. 1800.
Joseph Noe was the son of Peter and Hannah Neu/Noe of Orange County NC
and he was appointed guardian for Joseph Rich in May of 1793 in official
Orange County documents, in bond with Peter Fogelman for 500 lbs.
Susannah(Hannah) Noe(sister of Joseph Noe above) was married to Thomas
Rich Sr. who was killed
