You'll find that many of the Richardson's who were "shoemakers" were known as cordwainers. While the term is no longer all that active, there are still Cordwainer Guilds in existence. Possibly another source of information about the Richardson ancestry.
If I understand it correctly, a cobbler is more of a repairman for shoes, while the cordwainer creates them in the first place.

I don't find any of this line in my files directly but if you download my
richardson Letter archives (16 zip files) and search on Ohio and Oh you might
fine some familiar names which might connect. If you do let me know as I might
have some updates to those files.

I have several of these books that were printed in that time frame usually
in limited quantities for the reverenced family. The accuracy is usually as
good as the references but since it was intended as a gift to the authors family
the informaton was usually reliable.
It is quite likely that it was put on a shelf and left there for much of its
life so in good condidion. Those I have could have been printed yeaterday...

The Timothy Richardson, who married twice, is a grand uncle. The brother John, to whom he deeded 11 acres, was my 7th great grandfather. Many of those Richardson's were cordwainers, as well as farmers. Two of the farmhouses (Elisha's bulit 1774, another built 1724) are still standing in Franklin. The farmland is mostly gone.
I have not followed the lines other than my direct ancestry any further than what is provided by Vinton.

Hello all,
I am looking for any information on the children of Louis and Mary Stewart
Richardson living in Harrison County, KY. Louis is 34 years old in the 1880
census and the family is living in the Richland District, Currys Run,
Kentucky. The children were: Tabitha, Enoch, Andrew, William, Charles and
Festus.
Mary Stewart Richardson is my 2nd great grandmother. I descend from Jasper

Thanks for any assistance.

I have a brother nicknamed Kip Richardson. I doubt that's who you're
seeking, however. Any more info on Skip? Approx date of birth/death,
parents, etc. Or, perhaps there was only one Skip Richardson in Halifax Co,
VA....
Forgive me for an off topic comment, but do you know what they call a man

The "Richardson Memorial" by JA Vinton chronicles several brothers of one English Richardson family. Most of them came to Massachusetts ca. 1600-1650, and settled in and around Boston, and in the case of John Richardson, Medfield, Wrentham and Franklin, MA.
The book was published in the late 1800's, is currently available in book and CD format. David may not tell you, but he is a good source for the Vinton work on CD.

I recently acquired this little book at a garage sale, and wonder if anyone
knows anything about it. The book is signed by Hannah Richardson, and the
signature and the book look old, but it is in such great shape to be over
150 years old! It tells about the descendants of William and Elizabeth
Richardson, from the mid-1600's to 1849, compiled from family manuscripts,
apparently all in England. The book was printed by Newcastle-Upon-Tyne in
1850, but it states "Not Published". A Google search of the book

Kathy,
Can you tell me in short form about the Thomas Richardson Sr., and Mary Cruse.
You see I am thinking that Thomas was my Mary's brother or could be father, but I don't know when Thomas Sr. was born, does the book mention their ages?
According to Marys husband Joseph Mullins, Rev War pension they lived in Halifax, Pittsylvania and Henry County, Va before going on to Tenn.
My Mary would be born ca 1740's, Joseph was born in 1739 Prince Edward Co, Va.
Do you have any deeds of your Richardsons, from land
Small world isn't it.
The Pedigo family were in Halifax County at one time and ended up in Patrick and Henry Counties.
Edward Pedigo went to Barren Co, Ky before 1810.
The Elkins and Cockrum and Edward famlies were in the same area plus Franklin County, they are connected to the Pedigo line.

Gary,
I think that is a odd name for the time period of 1700's for Halifax County.
But I wish the other ancestors of mine had different names like that instead of John, James and etc.
Skip had a daughter Susannah.
Do you know if your Richarsons had land around Bates branch in Halifax County, Va.
My interest is my ancestor Joseph Mullins had son Thomas Richardson Mullins who was born ca 1777 Va and in Halifax County.
Skip is on deeds with Joseph Mullins, Joseph's wife was Mary, so trying to find Mary's fathe
