Richard married Sarah CURNOW in 1883:

CURNOW, Sarah
RICHARDS, Richard

Death of their son Richard in Queensland:

1925   C4808
Richard Rowe RICHARDS
Father: Richard Rowe RICHARDS
Mother: Mary Sarah KIRNOW

I thought that perhaps Mary Sarah had been previously married but I think Richard's birth reg. is just a mistake with her surname as the other children have her named as CURNOW (or variations).

1888   C4005
Richard Raw RICHARDS
Father: Richard Raw RICHARDS
Mothr: Mary Sarah HARRIS
