6152	Richard & Susannah had at least 5 known children.	Smith, Esquire Richard (2) (I12468)
6153	Richard and his wife Eunice were likely first cousins. In the Federal Census of 1860, Richard C. & Eunice Williams are living at Ashford, Cattaraugus Co., NY. They have two children. They are living next to or with his parents, and near Remington family members. They are still at Ashford in 1870. In 1880 Richard is still living there, a widower. With him is married daughter L. Amanda Barnard and her family.	Williams, Richard C. (I23254)
6154	Richard is mentioned as a nephew in the March 1785 will of his uncle Nathaniel Munday. A Richard Stanton married Phebe Clark 9 June 1793 at First Baptist Church, Newport, RI. A Richard Stanton and Susanna Goddard receipted a bill to the account of Dr. Isaac Senter of Newport, RI, 26 Sep 1788, from the accounts of Townsend Goddard.	Stanton, Richard (I28599)
6155	Richard is mentioned as deceased in his mother's will dated 13 March 1749.	Wickes, Richard (I13566)
6156	Richard is mentioned in the will of his grandfather Richard Briggs, dated 9 March 1733.	Matteson, Richard (I07250)
6157	Richard is said to be of London. He came as a Pilgrim on the first Mayflower voyage to Plymouth in 1620, and is one of the forty-one signers of the Mayflower Compact. He is one of ten who were distinguished with the title Mister. Richard was one of the nineteen signers who survived the first winter. His wife and five daughters followed in 1623. Elizabeth Warren was called Mistress, a title reserved for noteworthy women. On 22 May 1627, the Division of Cattle names the Warren family: Richard, wife Elizabeth, Nathaniell, Joseph, Mary, Anna, Sara, Elizabeth, & Abigail. This and other information on Richard and his family can be found in "Mayflower Families Through Five Generations" Vol. 18, Richard Warren, compiled by Robert S. Wakefield, pub. 1999 by General Society of Mayflower Descendants. For additional information, see: http://www.themayflowersociety.com/pilgrim.htm Also see this excellent web site by Caleb Johnson: http://www.mayflowerhistory.com/Passengers/RichardWarren.php One genealogy, the Gray-Ide Bible Records (Family Tree Maker CD 180), gives Richard's wife as Esther Juatt. However, the Mayflower Society has found other information confirming Elizabeth Walker as his wife (see notes for Elizabeth).	WARREN, Richard (I05982)
6158	Richard Knight was of Hampton, NH, and Newport, RI. Sarah Rogers was his second wife. According to land records, he had a son in "Old England."	Knight, Richard (I24349)
6159	Richard Pearce was in Portsmouth, RI, as early as 1654 when he was a witness to a deed. See more about him at the Peirce Project: http://members.aol.com/Pierce476/PierceRI.html#II	PEARCE, Richard (I04289)
6160	Richard served in the Revolutionary War as a Private in Capt. Moses Merrill's Company in Col. Edmund Phinny's 31st Regiment. He served at Cambridge and Roxbury, Massachusetts for eight months. (source: findagrave.com) He may have been a son of Richard Phillips and Ruth Bonney. This needs more research to confirm.	Phillips, Richard Jr. (I28410)
6161	Richard Smith was the first Englishman to settle in the South County area, probably around 1637. John "Quidnessett" Greene lived with him in the early days of the outpost, later testifying that there were no other English people within 20 miles of their place. Part of his land is the present location of "Smith's Castle" on Post Rd. in North Kingstown, althought the present homestead was built at a later time. Richard Smith (of "Smith's Castle" on Post Road, just north of Wickford village in North Kingstown), also owned land on Long Island under sovereignty of the Dutch West India Company. Smith established trading posts near the Pequot Path (Post Road) in Kingstowne, and also in New Amsterdam (New York). He frequently traveled back and forth between the two locations, and established strong personal and business relationships with individuals at New Amsterdam. Smith's trading post at Wickford was also the site where Roger Williams preached to the Narragansett Indians. A stone marker and plaque next to a picnic area on Post Road memorializes Williams's ministry among the Native Americans. St. Paul's Church in Wickford, RI, has a memorial tablet to Richard Smith. It mentions his daughter "Katharine" and her husband Gysbert op Dyck. The following is from "The Rhode Island Atlas" by Marion I. Wright and Robert J. Sullivan, Providence: RI Publications Society, 1982, p. 148: "Richard Smith (c. 1596 - 1666) came to Cocumscussoc from Taunton in 1637, and settling on land 'about a mile in length' purchased from the Indians, he built the first English-style house in the southern wilderness of the colony. He joined Roger Williams as a local trader and later bought out Williams and a trader named Wilcox. An energetic man, Smith maintained three homes: a house in Taunton; the house at Cocumscussoc, built with timbers carried across the Bay from Taunton; and a house on Long Island on land purchased from the Dutch. Smith bought Dutch trade goods. His daughter married a Dutchman named Updike whom she met during a family stay on Long Island; Smith's son Richard, Jr., died childless, and consequently the plantation passed through four generations of Updikes until 1812, when Wilkins Updike was forced to sell in order to honor the financial backing promised a brother. "Richard Smith, Sr., started one of the colony's first dairy herds, and for 300 years the dairy tradition continued on the estate. Joan Smith, his wife, used a recipe from her home in Cheshire, England, for making the famous Rhode Island cheeses of the Narragansett Country. "When Major Richard Smith, Jr., (c. 1630 - 1692) died, his estate included an inventory of 3 horses, 30 sheep, 20 hogs, and 135 cattle. No goats were listed on the inventory, but Smith had claimed payment for 100 goats slaughtered to feed the militia which gathered at Cocumscussoc and returned there after the Great Swamp Fight during King Philip's War. Smith granted freedom to three adult slaves in his will and directed that a slave couple's five children be freed after 30 years of service. "Lodowick Updike I lived on the plantation between 1692 and 1736. The name Wickford had been applied to the general area since 1664, but when Updike laid out the first house lots in the present-day village of Wickford, for a while the village was known as Updike's Newtown. His son Daniel (died 1757) was in charge of the plantation between 1736 and 1757. Trained as a lawyer, he served as attorney general from 1722 to 1728; the fine furniture and clocks which can be seen at Smith's Castle date from his period of prosperity. Daniel Updike maintained contacts with Newport, and he was the first signer of the "Laws and Orders" of the cultural society which was the parent organization of the Redwood Library there."	Smith, Richard (I07753)
6162	Richard Smith's will mentions his (second) wife Ruth, son Richard, and daughters Lucretia Gladding & Rebecca Munro; grandsons John Gladding, Jr., & Josiah Munro; and other grandchildren and great-grandchildren.	Smith, Esquire Richard (I02605)
6163	Richard was a noted housewright and architect in Newport. Boston records refer to a Richard Munday in Boston, winecooper, who had a wife named Martha in 1728. The dates for his five children are baptismal dates from St. Michael's Episcopal Church in Bristol, RI. I don't know if they were actually born in Bristol or in Newport. A Plymouth, MA, court record of 1736 mentions Richard Munday "Bristoll yeoman or Houswright" in a court case involving a cow that was not returned by him to the plaintif, Otiss Little, gentleman of Pembrooke. The will of Richard Munday of Newport, housewright, dated 1738, mentions his wife Elizabeth and 5 children: William, Nathaniel, Richard, Mary, and Rebecca. No grandchildren are mentioned (it appears that he died when his children were very young).	Munday, Richard (I28592)
6164	Richard was a twin to Bridget, who also died young.	Remington, Richard (I15887)
6165	Richard was an early settler in Portsmouth, RI (freeman 1653), and Dartmouth, MA (freeman 1655).	Sisson, Richard (I26748)
6166	Richard was appointed executor of his father's will in 1608.	GREENE, Richard Jr. (I01919)
6167	Richard was probably named after his great uncle, Richard Thornton, husband of Abby Rhodes. In the 1850 US Census at Cranston, RI, Richard T. Remington is age 27, a jeweller; with him are Sophia Remington, age 26; and their children Isabella 4, John R. 2, and Nicholas J. 1 month. Also in the household are Sally Greene, age 85; Nicholas Johnson, 42, a mariner, and his wife Sally R. Johnson, age 30; David Snow, age 30, a shoemaker; and Sarah M. Olden, age 10. (See notes for Sally's brother Richard T. Remington.) In 1860 the family is at Providence Ward 4: Richard T. Remington 37, Sophia 36, Isabella 14, John R. 13, Nicholas J. 10, Sarah J. 8, and Richard W. 2. At Scituate Town Hall, in the book "1810-1882 Births, Deaths, & Marriages, Etc." there is an entry for the marriage between Mr. Richard T. Remington and Mrs. Lucinda M. Haynes, 12 Jan 1868, by W. H. Bowen, Clergyman." This is Richard's second marriage; he was about 45 at the time. Lucinda was probably a widow, and Haynes/Haines was her married name. In 1870, Richard & Lucinda are living at Scituate, RI. They are ages 48 & 37. Sons John R., 22, & Nicholas J., 20, are with them. Also in the household are Anna, 16, & Celia L., 14, both surname Haines -- probably Lucinda's daughters. Richard T. Remington was in the Civil War, a Private in the RI 1st Light Artillery.	Remington, Richard Thornton (I02414)
6168	Richard was s/o Judge Daniel Sanger and Persis Phipps (The History of the Descendants of Elder John Strong, of Northampton, Mass.; by Benjamin Woodbridge Dwight; Albany, NY: Joel Munsell, 1871; p. 1350).	Sanger, Richard (I21647)

6172	Richmond Adam, of Exeter, and Mary Hall, of West Greenwich; m. by Philip Greene, Justice, Apr. 1, 1762, West Greenwich marriages .	Family F10117
6173	Richmond Adam, of Richmond, R. I., and Mary (Amy?) Hazard, of West Greenwich; m. by Philip Greene, Justice, Mar. 10, 1757, West Greenwich marriages. Adam was admitted freeman of Exeter in May 1759. Adam had one child by his first wife and 10 by his second wife.	Richmond, Adam (I27061)
6174	Richmond Adam, of Richmond, R. I., and Mary Hazard, of West Greenwich; m. by Philip Greene, Justice, Mar. 10, 1757, West Greenwich marriages. The Richmond book has her name as Amy Hazard.	Family F10115
6175	RIGR Vol 12 pp 247 & 248 has her maiden name as Jones. At least one online family tree has her name as Penelope Jones (no source noted). However, I believe she was Penelope Fones, since Daniel Fones Essex is mentioned as a nephew, s/o Benejah Essex, in the will of Daniel Fones who died c1817. Therefore, I have entered her maiden name as Fones. Also, see this entry from the RI Cemetery Database: ESSEX PENELOPE ([FONES]) 1765c - 18 JAN 1827 WK054	Fones, Penelope (I15120)

6177	Robe is mentioned in the will dated 18 May 1774 of her father-in-law, Joseph Fenner of Cranston.	Sarle, Robe (I13578)
6178	Robert & Alice were probably cousins.	FYSHE, Robert (I01490)
6179	Robert & Henry seem to have been born about the same time, from the census data in 1850 and 1860. Or, a mistake was made in giving the information to the census taker. Henry may have been a child who died young.	Randall, Robert B. (I13302)
6180	Robert & Sarah had about 9 children.	GIFFORD, Robert (I01819)
6181	Robert and Elizabeth were second cousins. For more on the Hazard family, see "The Hazard family of Rhode Island, 1635-1894 : being a genealogy and history of the descendants of Thomas Hazard, with sketches" available at ancestry.com.	Hazard, Dr. Robert (I23899)

6187	Robert was a farmer and miller who spent most of his life in Portsmouth. He signed a will on 10 Mar 1721. This will was proved on 13 August 1722. The will names his wife as Johanna, so I assume that she was his second wife. It also says that Job, Jonathan, and Caleb were all under 21 years of age at that time. I have estimated the dates of the children's births. Also, I am unsure of Anne Cory's dates, and of the year of Robert's assumed second marriage.	BENNETT, Robert (I01021)
6188	Robert was a twin to Harry W. Remington. He may have died in infancy.	Remington, Robert (I10575)

6198	Robey's will mentions dtr Julia Ann.	Olin, Robey (I04749)
6199	Roby's name is given in one entry as Robena. Probably her middle name was Soule (or Sowle), after her maternal grandmother. The death record identifies her parents as Jeremiah Manchester and Mary Dennis. Her grave is next to her husband's and daughter's, behind a farm across from 330 King Street, Tiverton. I have visited the graveyard and have a photo of the gravestone. From the RI Cemetery Database: ROUNDS, ROBY S 1832c - 12 FEB 1899 TV033	Manchester, Robena "Roby" S. (I00763)
