Charles Ray Richardson Thu Feb 20 14:30:07 1997
My g gf, John (nmn) Richardson was born near Hillsboro, NC on 27 May 1819. He joined the Masonic Lodge in Hillsboro 5 Dec 1842. On 10 April 1843, he took his demit from the lodge " because he was going to the Western country ". He came to Jonesboro and worked for the John Blair & Co. who operated stage lines. On 4 July 1846 he married Elizabeth S. Ellis of Church Hill, TN. Elizabeth was dau. of John E. Ellis 1772-1844 and Nancy Jane Hale 1781- 1837. The Ellises were also in Jefferson County. John Richardson was associated with the Jonesboro Masonic Lodge. On 10 July 1846 John purchased two town lots in Russellville. The deed states " John Richardson and Edward King both of Washington County ". The 1850 census shows John, Elizabeth and Henry, age 1, in Jefferson County. Presumably, they were living in Russellville. I am trying to find John's parents. John and Elizabeth ( both could read and write) raised four children to adults. We do not know the given names of John's parents . His f. b. MD, m. b. NC. per 1900 census. I believe John came to TN (and probably had relatives in TN) before 1843, returned to NC to become a Mason and back to TN. He remained a mason all his life. Circa, 1851 they moved to Church Hill to land inherited by Elizabeth and accumulated a lot of land. John d. 1909 Elizabeth 1899 They had lots of family in Hawkins Co. Would like information of the Blair stage Co and possible connection to Jefferson Co. Richardsons.. C. R. Richardson, 3732 Eakley Ct, Raleigh, NC 27606. chasrichar@aol.com
