Richards Family Alabama from 1870
« on: Thursday 28 December 17 18:48 GMT (UK) »
I am struggling with the children of Edward Richards born 1826 in Tennessee. I am told his wife was Elizabeth Mooney and they married in 1843 in Wilson, Tennessee. When Julius Vance Richards, one of the children died, it shows his mother's name as Elizabeth Parker.
The children were
John R or B Richards born 1854 Tennessee
William E Richards born 1856/1857 Alabama
Julius Vance Richards born 12.05.1859 Alabama and have his marriage details
M.A. Richards (Female) born 1861 Alabama
L.S.E. Richards (Female) born 1867 Alabama

Looking for confirmation of precise birth dates and if possible who and when they married and where.
Like to know what the girls names are, so I can then look for their details.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you Sandra, yet again.
John R. Richards born 1856 in Tennessee married Laura L ? she was born 1859 in Alabama. They had a son, William E.Richards b 1879 in Troy, Pike, Alabama.
Would really like to know the christian names of M.A. Richards born 1861 Alabama and her sister L.S.E. Richards born 1867 in Alabama. Their parents were Elizabeth & Edward Richards.
Thank you for the info on Julius Vance Richards, which is my connection, through Allie.
