Female

Thank you Kathleen . This makes sense with information I have for her parents. I could not find her living with parents on 1841 census but did find her on 1851 census, living with her sister, Susannah who was then married to Henry Sprencer. Robinson Richmond their brother also then lived with Susanah.

In regards to Susannah I can not find her birth but the 1841 census shows her as a servant.

A further mystery I have to follow yet is a Josuah Richmond on the 1851 census who is again living with Susanah. But I do not know who he is.?


He cannot be another brother because Martha died in 1841 leaving William a widower.

You could have looked all this up for yourself on the following FREE site


go to www.familyseach.org

click on Advanced Search

Click on International Genealogical Index

Enter William Richmond in father's box

Enter Martha in mother's box

Enter Birth/Christening 1820 +/- 20 years

Enter British Isles, England, Yorkshire



Click on the names to get further information


BUT be careful that you only really pay attention to EXTRACTED records, taken from the actual parish records.


SUBMTTED records have been sent in by individuals, usually church members, and have no backup documentation ..... take such records under advisement until you can find documentation.




No sure certain sign of Susannah though ...... and I did try looking under all counties
