I am trying to get more information on the Richardson family.
A reference found in the Santa Barbara Co. Historical & Biographical Record, Page: 513 says:
"John Richardson and his family emigrated to California, taking
the "overland route with ox-teams and wagons". "The father,
mother, ten sons and two daughters remained in Shasta County
for a short time, [then] removed to Sacramento County, and from
there to Stockton, returning to Sacramento County, where the
father died in 1868."
I have been able to locate the names of 7 sons (Wiliam, Charles, Waller, Henry, Darius, Maxwell and Amos) and 1 daughter (Betsey). I have been wondering if the ones I am missing may have settled around Sacramento. If these names sound familiar, please contact me. Also - would anyone have any clues as to where John Richardson may have been buried in 1868?
