farm; then removed to East Baldwin, where he has since been engaged in
trade. He has been postmaster twenty-four years; trustee of ministerial
and school funds of Baldwin twenty-five years; town clerk every year
excepting three or four, for twenty-five years; superintending school
committee about the same number of years; selectman and assessor six or
eight years; justice of the peace or trial justice for the county of
Cumberland about twenty years; United States claim agent since the
breaking out of the Rebellion; was twice appointed assistant marshal of
the United States; all of which offices, except that of town clerk, he
holds at the presenttime, 1874.
He has taught in all about thirty-five schools of different kinds,

10, 1809, aged 60.
He lived in Newton till about the time of his second marriage and then
removed to Pearsontown, now Standish, Me.
The following abstracts will be in point:
April 12, 1773. David Richard son, of Newton, Mass., yeoman for 160
pounds lawful money, bought of Reuben Freeman, of Pearsontown, Cumberland
County, and of Catharine Freeman his wife, two lots of land in said
Pearsontown [now Standish]; one lot contains forty acres, with a house
and barn thereon; bounded north-east on the road ninety-three and
two-thirds rods, then South-east on another road sixty rods. Witnessed by
Moses Richard and Aaron Richardson [his brothers]. [Cumb. Deeds, vii.
528.]
Feb. 13, 1778. David Richardson, of Pearsontown, bought of John
Thompson, of said place, one hundred acres of land at Ossipee, in the
county of York. [York Deeds, lvi. 34.]
Dec. 4, 1787. David Richardson, of Standish, Cumberland County, yeoman,
sold to his son, David Richardson, of a place called Limington, between
the two Ossipees in the County of York, one hundred acres of land in said
Limington. [York Deeds, lvi. 35.]
He lived in Standish from 1778 till 1807, when he removed to Monmouth,
Me., where he died, May 27, 1825, aged 93.
At his death, his descendants were sixteen children, fifty-three
grandchildren, and eleven great-grandchildren.
The last seven, i.e., all the children of the second wife, Hannah
Mills, were, at one time, rocked together in one cradle. Three pairs of
twins within three and a half years! The father of this numerous family
removed from Standish to Monmouth, the north side of that town, only one
farm intervening between his land and the town of Winthrop . The removal
took place March 28, 1807.

The History of Monmouth and Wales, Maine, by Harry H. Cochran, 1894, V1,
pg 413:
...David Richardson, who removed from Newton, Mass. toStandish, Me. in
1778, and thence in 1807 to Monmouth, where he died in 1825. He was
twice married, and at the time of his decease boasted eighty living
descendants. His second wife, the mother of Thomas and William, was
blessed with three pairs of twins within the space of three-and-one-half
years; and less that two years later her loneliness was relieved by the
birth of a seventh child.
That these children might be connected with an event worthy of
rehearsal to their posterity, the proud mother packed them together like
a boxof sardines and rocked them in one cradle. William was the
youngest of these seven children, and Thomas one of the second pair of
twins. Long after they came to Monmouth, the father of Thomas and
William used to gather his grandchildren about his knees in the light of
the blazing open fire-place and tellthem of this wonderful episode in
the life of their parents. And then the little ones snuggled closer to
their grandfather's side, and cast furtive glances into the dark corners
while they listened to the still more wonderful events which befell his
grandfather's wife and children. It seems that the old gentleman's
grandfather was a soldier in King Philip's war. On the afternoonof Apr.
10, 1676 "he was employed in casting dressing into his field, accompanied
by his son Samuel, a boy between five and six years old. Looking toward
his house, he was surprised at seeing feathers

READFIELD, MAINE - EARLYSETTLERS - Readfield Historical Society:
Thaddeus Richardson
Three Richardson brothers helped settle Woburn, Mass. in 1640, having
come to Charlestown c1637. A century and a half later, around 1800,
Thaddeus, a blacksmith and great-grandson of Samuel Richardson, came to
Readfield with his wife Mary (Sanborn) and family. Their six children had
all been born in Limington, Maine between 1779 and c1798.
The first son, Thaddeus b.1779, married Sarah Blethen. Daniel, the
second son who never married, drowned in 1806. Fourth son, Asa was given
one half of his father’s homestead at the time of his marriage to Sarah
Cottle in 1817, but later moved to Augusta. Fifth son, Stephen, died
unmarried on the homestead in 1847. Youngest son Joseph is said to have
been a Congregationalist minister.
In 1808 the third son, Ebenezer, married Relief Eatona Readfield native.
Ebenezer was a farmer and raised his family of seven children in
Readfield. Two died young, four moved out of state, and the youngest,
George Frost, farmed on the Sadie Dunn Road. His home is what we call the
Jesse Welch house today. Some older Readfield residents remember there
used to be an old blacksmith shop nearby. George Frost Richardson married
Abby A. Jose of Readfield and their three children were Hattie b.1859,
William M. b.1860 Georgie May b.1872. Georgie married Louis S. Johnson
of Mt. Vernon. They carried on Ebenezer’s farm, and had one daughter,
Mabel Johnson.
Louis Johnson was the son of Edwin and Amelia (McVane) Johnson. Their
home, which wasbuilt by Theodore Marston before 1790, was located on the
Fogg Road, just over the Readfield / Mt. Vernon town line. The Johnson
house had been unoccupied for many years when it mysteriously burned
earlier this spring (1999).

EBENEZER RICHARDSON, sixth son of Hezekiah and Elizabeth Richardson;
born in Townsend, Mass., Nov. 25, 1751; m., first, Catharine (Tufts)
Wyman, Dec. 12, 1776. She died before 1789, or perhaps early in that
year. Second, Jerusha Dodge, 1789, dau. of Zechariah Dodge of Edgecomb.
In the Revolutionary war he was in the military service of his country
three years. He was at the surrender of Cornwallis, Oct, 1781.
After the war, he went down to Maine, as did his brothers, Abijah,
Joel, Joshua, and Simeon, and settled on what was known as "the million
acre lot," which, we believe, was situated on both sides of the Kennebec
River in Maine. We find him in the plantation, afterwards town, of
Canaan, near Norridgewock in 1785,as witness the following:
Sept. 21, 1785, Ebenezer Richardson, of the plantation of Canaan, in
the County of Lincoln, yeoman, sold to Seth Wyman of said plantation,
about two and one-half acres in Canaan, aforesaid. [Lincoln Deeds,
xxi.63.]
Lincoln County then included the whole of the counties of Kennebecand
Somerset up to the Canada line. Canaan then included Skowhegan. Seth
Wyman may have been his wife's brother.
March 21, 1789. Ebenezer Richardson conveys to Amasa Steward, of
Canaan, about one hundred acres of land in Canaan. As no wife joins in
the conveyance, the transfer must have been made between the first and
second marriage. [Lincoln Deeds, xxxvi.38.]
It is tolerably clear that Ebenezer Richardson lived on the west side
of the Kennebec River, in the present territory of Skowhegan. There are
people now in that town of the names Steward and Wyman.
I have no account of wife or children.

CAPT. EDWARD RICHARDSON, son of Edward and Abigail (Chenery)
Richardson; born in Woburn, Feb. 8, 1747-8; m., May 16, 1771, Ann Wilson,
of West Cambridge, now Arlington, Mass., 1750.
The record of his marriage describes him as of Concord, Mass. In that
town he resided many years.
Whenthe war of the Revolution commenced, he, with his twin brother,
joined the standard of liberty. He was one of those who resisted the
inroad of the British troops at Concord Bridge, April 19, 1775, and
compelled them to a hasty retreat. At that time he was orderly serjeant
of a company of "minute men," living in Concord. He soon after enlisted
in the "eight months' service," fromMay, 1775, to the end of the year.
His son Josiah stated--and the statementwas made in 1830, while the
father was yet living--that he continued in the military service of his
country till the end of the war--eight years*--being successively
commissioned as ensign, lieutenant, quarter-master, paymaster, and
captain. These commissions are still in existence. At West Point he
commanded a company. It is said that he commanded the first company that
brokeground at Verplanck's Point.
For his services in the war, he received pay in Continental money, or
the promise of Congress to pay money when they could get it. Of this
fictitious currency, there were issued in all three hundred and
fifty-seven millions of dollars.
When about forty-four years of age, finding himself at the head of a
numerous family, he determined to remove to the country on the
Androscoggin River, in the then District of Maine. He removed thither in
Feb. 1793. Respecting this removal, we find the following deeds on
record:
Edward Richardson, of Cambridge, gentleman, buys of the proprietors of
Phips' Canada [afterwards the town of Jay, Me.] about one hundred acres,
No. 5 in Range No. 3, on the west side of Androscoggin River, Jan. 10,
1792 [Cumberland Deeds, vol. xxii. p. 203.]
Edward Richardson, of Phips' Canada, gentleman, bought of Benjamin
Bird, of Waltham, Middlesex Co., the undivided half of No. 18 in Range
No. 2, and No. 7 in Range No. 13, both on the easternside of
Androscoggin River, Jan. 16, 1794 [Cumberland Deeds, xxii. 204.]
In the interval between these two deeds he removed to Jay.
Edward Richardson, of Phipstown, Esquire, and Richard Richardson, of
Cambridge, Middlesex Co. [his brother], bought of Nathan Fuller, of
Newtown, Middlesex Co., seven lots ofland in Phipstown, particularly
described, all on the easterly side of Ameriscoggin River (same as
Androscoggin], Jan. 24, 1795. [Cumberland Deeds, xxii.203.]
Edward Richardson of Jay, Lincoln Co., Esquire, bought of Z. Judson of
Hallowell, saddler, about 100 acres in Jay, on the west side of
Androscoggin River, Sept. 5, 1797 [Cumberland Deeds, xxvii. 414.]
Edward Richardson, of Jay, and Richard Richardson, of Cambridge, sold
to Mark Wilson, of Poland, lots of land in said Poland, on the easterly
side of Saco River [for Saco here, read Androscoggin], Feb., 1798.
[Cumberland Deds xxix. 252.]
The place to which he removed, then called "Phips' Canada", was then,
1793, in a rough uncultivated state and contained all but three
families. Two years later, it received the name of Phipstown, and
contained but fifteen in the whole township.It has since been divided
into two towns; Jay, made from the eastern portion, and Canton from the
western. He was a prominent, influential man in the place. During many
years he was the only trial justice for several miles around, and the
only one qualified to solemnize marriages. Consequently, his log-house
in the wilderness was much resorted to, and was the scene of many happy
gatherings, which were yet always conducted with strict decorum.
He bought land cheap, as the country was new, and being a la

JOSIAH RICHARDSON, Esq., fifth son of Edward and Ann Richardson; born
in West Cambridge, Mass., July 10, 1785; m., 1811, Mary Pierce Leach, of
Jay, Maine. She was born in South Bridgewater, Mass.
He removedin childhood, with his father's family, from Cambridge to
Jay, Maine, in 1793, when it was a rude, uncultivated state. In his
youth, 1805, he attended the academy in Fryeburg, Me., and boarded with
his aunt Weston (Ruth (Richardson) Weston]. In 1858, his granddaughter,
Julia Arnott Reade, attended the same institution, boarded in the same
house, with the same family, occupied thesame room, and used the same
Latin dictionary, that had been used by him fifty-three years before.
He lived in Jay till 1818, when he removed to Monmouth,Me., where he
resided twenty years. his chief motive in thus removing was to have his
children in the excellent academy there. He was always deeply interested
in the cause of education. He was engaged in mercantile business most of
the time, but at length, in Auburn, was engaged in pursuits of
agriculture. He was a justice of the peace, and one of the selectmen of
the town many years. His honesty and uprightness was proverbial.
He died in Auburn, Me.,1865, aged 80. On his headstone is sculptured,
"an honest man's the noblestwork of God." His widow is still living in
Auburn, 1874, at the age of 84.
She was descended, on the mother's side from Robert Calfe or Calef of
Roxbury, who died April 13, 1719. He had a son Robert, who was a
merchant in Boston; he m. Margaret Barton, Dec. 23, 1699. They had eight
or more children, most of whom died young. Their daughter Margaret m.
_____ Starr, and had four or more children. A daughter or granddaughter
of this Margaret Starr, was Mary Pierce Leach, the wife of Josiah
Richardson, of whom this notice treats.
A portrait of Margaret, the wife of Robert Calef, is in the possession
of Mrs. Mary Salina Reade, dau. of Josiah Richardson, from whom this
account was received.

General Notes: Child - Ezekiel Richardson
The Richardson Memorial by John Adams Vinton, 1876, Brown & Thurston Co.,
Portland, ME, pg 130:
COLONEL EZEKIEL RICHARDSON, youngest son of Edward and Ann(Wilson)
Richardson, of Jay, Me.; born in West Cambridge, Mass., May 8, 1788; m.
Elizabeth Winter Leach, of Jay, Me., She was a sister of Hannah Leach
and Mary Pierce Leach, wives of Ezra and Josiah Richardson, elder
brothers of Ezekiel. They were daughters of Luke Leach, who came with
his family from Bridgewater, Mass, about the year 1801. His wife was
Molly Starr, sister of Rev. Robert and Judge James Starr. The Starrs, as
already stated, are descendants of Robert Calef, of Boston, who so
triumphantly exposed the witchcraft delusion of 1692.
Ezekiel Richard lived and died in Jay, where he was, for many years, in
mercantile business; but during his later years engaged in the business
of a civil engineer. He held public offices many years; was a
representative in the State legislature; was justice of the peace, county
commissioner, and colonel in the militia. He died July 12, 1838, aged 50.

Francis failed to pay his tithe for a number ofyears and so irritated
the vicar that he lost patience with Francis and took him to court. The

Elizabeth (Richardson) Wyman was the sister of three brothers who settled
in Woburn, MA. Her brother Ezekiel Richardson came to Boston in 1630 in
the Winthrop fleet with his wife Susanna (Bradford) Wyman. They were
original members of the First Church of Boston and on 11 Oct. 1632 they
were dismissed to the church in Charlestown when it was founded. The
brothers Samuel and Thomas Richardson came over some time before 1636
when they first appear inthe records of Charlestown and Boston. All
three brothers were members of the Charlestown church in 1638.

settlers of Woburn, 1641. They were tanners by occupation, church
members and persons of much respectability and worth. Francis Wyman was

land at "Shawsheen" [Billerica] in 1655. John Wyman was a selectman of
Woburn, 1666. 1667, and 1673. Francis Wyman was selectman of Woburn,
1674, 1675. A numerous posterity has sprung from them. Francis Wyman

Proof of the lineage of Francis and John Wyman of Woburn is from
Water's 'Genealogical Gleanings in England' and from Threlfall's 'Fifty
Great Migration Colonists to New England & Their Origins'. The English
Wymans are well covered in 'The Wymans/Whymans of Hertfordshire' by
Christine E. Jackson of Amberly, Herts, England.
To take possession of this extensive territory a party of fifty or
sixty persons, under John Endicott, was sent out to Salem the following
June, and another party of two hundred, under Francis Higginson, the year
after. In the year 1630, seventeen ships in all, but not all together,
brought at least one thousand passengers from England, as estimated by
Palfrey in his History of New England, though commonly reckoned at
fifteen hundred. Of these ships the Lion left Bristol in February,
bringing people from the west of England; the Mary and John sailed from
Plymouth March 20th, and arrived May 30th, bringing passengers from
Devonshire, Dorsetshire, and Somersetshire. Four ships, the Arbella,

convicted 'of abuse offered to two of Wamesit Indians wounding them on
the head and elsewhere' is sentenced to pay the Indians ten shillings -
Middlesex County Court Records Vol III. page 47
The two Wyman brothers Francis and John were seventeen and fourteen in
1636 and so probably came over with their older uncles, Samuel and Thomas
Richardson. The first definite record that we find of the Wyman brothers
in New England is when the town order of Charlestown Village (Woburn)
were signed in 1640; which the Richardsons and Wymans all signed. By that
date the Wymans were 21 and 18. John Wyman the brother of Francis was
made a freeman 26 May 1647 at age 25, and Francis a freeman 1657. Later
in 1658 Francis Wyman Sr. in his will said '.. do give and bequeth unto
my two sons Francis Wyman and John Wyman which are beyound sea ten pounds
a piece of Lawful English money to be paid unto them by mine executor if
they be in want and come over to demand the same.'
The Wymans built on what became Wyman St. in Woburn, and by 1666 they
had also built countryfarms in what is now Burlington, a few miles
north, on what became the Billerica boundary.
Overlooked by many is the fact that a grant of land was made inWoburn

EZEKIEL RICHARDSON, eldest son of Theophilus and Mary (Champney)
Richardson; born in Woburn, Oct. 28, 1655; m. Elizabeth Swan, of
Cambridge, July 27, 1687.
They lived in Woburn. He died, per inventory, March 13, 1733-4, in his
seventy-ninth year.
An inventory of his estate was made outby the appraisers, Thomas
Richardson, Samuel Sprague, and Jonathan Tufts, dated March 27, 1733-4,
and sworn to by the administrator, Aaron Richardson, his youngest son,
April 1, 1734. The inventory includes no real estate. The personal
estate was appraised at 220.5.8 pounds. This included a bond of 113
pounds, and another bond for 12 pounds; also four cows 30 pounds. The
bondfor 12 pounds was given by the town of Woburn, and probably the
other also.The interest was reckoned at 6 per cent.

The Richardson Memorial by John Adams Vinton, 1876, Brown & Thurston Co.,
Portland, ME, pg 54:
THEOPHOLIS RICHARDSON, son of Ezekiel and Elizabeth (Swan) Richardson
of Woburn; born there, Jan 7, 1691-2; m. in Watertown, April 24, 1711,
Ruth Swan, dau. of Gershom Swan, probably a relative of his mother's.
He lived in Woburn, or perhaps latterly in Stoneham and died in the
autumn of 1723, in his thirty-second year, as is apparent from the
inventory. The Probate Record says that "he died at Charlestown--i.e.,
in Stoneham, then part ofCharlestown--'Charlestown End'-- on his return
from his majesty's service atthe eastward." The explanation is, the
Indians in Mai8ne, instigated by Sebastian Rasles, the French and Jesuit
missionary at Norridgewock, who was in close correspondence with the
governor of Canada, had since the year 1722 beencommitting great ravages
on the English settlements. They had captured nine families at Merry
Meeting Bay in June, 1722; had burned Brunswick, and had taken sixteen
Massachusetts vessels at Canseau. In the spring of 1723, they ravaged
Falmouth, Scarborough, Berwick, Wells, York and Dover. The government of
Massachusetts had sent a force against these savages. Theophilus
Richardson was one of the men sent, and died soon after his return. This
war lastedtill Dec., 1725, and included the famous "Pigwacket Fight," in
May, 1725.
The inventory is dated Dec. 12, 1723. It includes only personal
estate, and amounts but to 13.19 pounds. This shows that the family had
become poor. Thewidow makes oath that this is "all she knows of
estate," and she has to "support herself and five small children, all
sick at home of the feaver." Of the three sons named below, Deacon
Nathan Richardson, their father's cousin, was appointed guardian Nov. 30,
1733, and held a small amount of property in trust for them.
Col. Edmund Goffe, of Cambridge, was appointed administrator March 23,
1724-5.
Ruth, the widow of Theophilus Richardson, was m., April 6, 1726, to
Ebenezer Parker, of Stoneham.

PHEBE RICHARDSON, dau. of Ezekiel and Susanna Richardson, was baptized
in Boston, June 3, 1632; married, in Woburn,Nov. 1, 1649, Dea. Henry
Baldwin.
He came from Devonshire, England; probably at first lived in
Charlestown a few years; subscribed the "Town Orders," relative to the
settlement of Woburn, Dec., 1640.; settled in Woburn, accordingly, 1641;
freeman of the colony, 1652; became a distinguished citizen of the town.
His place of residence was at "New Bridge," or North Woburn, where some
of his descendants in each generation have had there above, and been
large proprietors of land. He was a selectman of Woburn, 1681, and a
deacon of the church from 1686 until his death.
He is presumed to be the ancestor of the Baldwins of New England.
He died Feb. 14, 1698-8. His widow Phebe died Sept. 13, 1716/

He came with his father to Woburn in 1641, and resided there till his
death, which took place Dec. 28, 1674, aged 41. He left no will. His
estate was settled in 1675. The inventory of his estate is dated 3 (2)
1675, i.e., April 3, 1675... Total 559.0.0 pounds
From a comparison of this inventory with the preceding, one may easily
perceive a thrifty hand and a greatadvance, both in comfort and in the
means of living within twenty-eight years.
Mary, the widow of Theophilus Richardson, became the second wife of
John Brooks, Feb. 25, 1683-4. John Brooks was the eldest son of Henry

The Richardson Memorial by John Adams Vinton, 1876, Brown & Thurston Co.,
Portland, ME, pg 40-42:
CAPTAIN JOSIAH RICHARDSON, second son of Ezekiel Richardson, one of the
founders of Woburn; baptized in Charlestown, Nov. 7, 1635; m.at Concord,
by Simon Willard of that place, June 6, 1659, to Remembrance Underwood,
born at Concord, Feb. 25, 1639-40, dau. of William and Sarah Underwood of
that place.
He and his brother James Richardson, went to reside in Chelmsford as
early as 1659, which, as just noted, was the year of his marriage.
William Underwood, his wife's father, went in 1654, at the very beginning
of that plantation.
In Chelmsford--incorporated May 29, 1655--Josiah Richardson, though
still a young man rose into consideration, and by his capacity for
business was clothed with important trusts. He was chosen fence-viewer
in 1659; was one of a committee, in 1662-6, to unite with a committee
from Groton, whose territory then joined that of Chelmsford, to lay out a
highway between the two towns. He was admitted freeman of the colony
March 11, 1673-4; was chosen constable in 1667; was one of the board of
selectman in 1668, 1673, 1677, 1679, 1680, and every successive year
after till 1688, inclusive, and again in 1694, making fourteen years in
all. He was town clerk, 1690 to 1694,four years. He was till his death
a leading man in town. He was also captain of a military company, at a
time when military companies were always liable to active and bloody work.
He, with Maj. Thomas Henchman and William Fletcher erected, in 1669,
the second saw-mill in the town. It was in the north-west part of
Chelmsford; I suppose on Stony Brook. For encouragement in building the
mill, a tract of land was granted them. The owners of the mill had full
liberty to take from the "common" unappropriated land, what timber they
saw fit to work in the mill. The people had lived in log-houses long
enough.
Some Indians, "from the love they bore to" Josiah Richardson, of
Chelmsford,conveyed to him, Jan. 19, 1688-9, a parcel of land at the
confluence of the Concord and Merrimack Rivers--where now stands
Lowell--bounded south by a little brook, called Speen's Brook [Midd.
Deeds, xii.204.]
Capt Josiah Richardson died intestate, June 22, 1695, aged 60. His
widow Remembrance and his seven surviving children divide his estate
among them, March 12, 1695-6 {Midd. Prob. Records, as copied Vol. viii.
pp. 811-814.]
His estate was appraised at697.5.6 pounds.

Richardson; born in Townsend, Mass. Feb. 22,1749,* m., First about 1770,
____Livingston; second, Eunice Thompson, born in Brunswick Me., Oct. 16,
1747. After marriage, he lived a while in Westford, Mass.
After the Revolutionary war, he, with his family of eight children,
removed to Litchfield, then in the County of Lincoln, now in the County
of Kennebec, Maine. His three youngest brothers, Joel, Joshua, and
Simeon went toMaine about the same time. He lived near the village of
Litchfield Corner until his death, nearly forty years after. He was a
farmer and a working mason. He was a prominent man in the town; was a
justice of the peace and represented the town in the Legislature of
Massachusetts one or more terms.
He became surety for two traders in the place, and thus lost much of
his property.In 1823, after his death, his estate was declared
insolvent. On of the largest creditors was his son Jesse Richardson.
The estate was sold in 1824, reserving sixteen acres for the widow's
dower. [Lincoln Prob. Records, xxv.148,429, 438, 470.]
He died in Litchfield, March 15, 1822, aged 78. His youngestson
Cornelius was appointed administrator of his estate, Aug. 26, 1822
[Lincoln Prob. Records, xxi. 351.]
His widow Eunice died in Litchfield, Nov. 12, 1841.

EBENEZER RICHARDSON, sixth son of Hezekiah and Elizabeth Richardson;
born in Townsend, Mass., Nov. 25, 1751; m., first, Catharine (Tufts)
Wyman, Dec. 12, 1776. She died before 1789, or perhaps early in that
year. Second, Jerusha Dodge, 1789, dau. of Zechariah Dodge of Edgecomb.
In the Revolutionary war he was in the military service of his country
three years. He was at the surrender of Cornwallis, Oct, 1781.
After the war, he went down to Maine, as did his brothers, Abijah,
Joel, Joshua, and Simeon, and settled on what was known as "the million
acre lot," which, we believe, was situated on both sides of the Kennebec
River in Maine. We find him in the plantation, afterwards town, of
Canaan, near Norridgewock in 1785,as witness the following:
Sept. 21, 1785, Ebenezer Richardson, of the plantation of Canaan, in
the County of Lincoln, yeoman, sold to Seth Wyman of said plantation,
about two and one-half acres in Canaan, aforesaid. [Lincoln Deeds,
xxi.63.]
Lincoln County then included the whole of the counties of Kennebecand
Somerset up to the Canada line. Canaan then included Skowhegan. Seth
Wyman may have been his wife's brother.
March 21, 1789. Ebenezer Richardson conveys to Amasa Steward, of
Canaan, about one hundred acres of land in Canaan. As no wife joins in
the conveyance, the transfer must have been made between the first and
second marriage. [Lincoln Deeds, xxxvi.38.]
It is tolerably clear that Ebenezer Richardson lived on the west side
of the Kennebec River, in the present territory of Skowhegan. There are
people now in that town of the names Steward and Wyman.
I have no account of wife or children.

Like his brothers, Ebenezer and Joel, he served three years in the
armies of his country, during the war of our Independence.
After the war, he went to Maine , and settled in Litchfield, where his
brothers Abijah and Joel also settled, and not far from the same time.
After a residencethere of thirty years, more or less, he removed to
Ohio, as many did, after an esceedingly cold and unproductive season,
that of 1816, when it was said there was frost every month in the year.
He had two sons, grown to manhood, whom he left behind...
General Notes: Child - Simeon Richardson
The Richardson Memorial by John Adams Vinton, 1876 printed by Brown
Thurston& Co., Portland, Maine (1876), pg. 566:
SIMEON RICHARDSON, youngest son of Hezekiah and Elizabeth (Walker)
Richardson; b. in Townsend May 4, 1763.
It is said that he was a Revolutionary soldier. To be more definite,
it is stated that he performed military service in the Rhode Island
campaign, Aug., 1778.If so, it is remarkable, as he was then but little
more that fifteen years old. This is considerable under the military
age, and he could not then have been compelled to do military duty.
About 1790, he went to Maine, as four of his brothers had done, and
made his home in Solon, on the Kennebec River, a few miles above
Norridgewock. He died there. The name of his wife has not been reported.
His children were:
Simeon, lived and died in Madison, an adjoining town.
Nahum.
Polly, unmarried.
Lucy, unmarried.
Rhoda, unmarried.
Two other daughters, unmarried
All have died.

Portland. At the last marriage, the bridegroom was eighty-one years of
age and the bride seventy-one.
The second wife, Sarah Nye Ellis, was married to Mr. Stephen Tobey in
the eighteenth year of her age. She was then a professor of religion.
She and her husband, Mr. Tobey joined the Methodist Church, and was for
forty years an efficient class-leader in that body. He was a wealthy
farmer. They raised a family of eight children.
Hobart Richardson and his younger brother Andrew were out as soldiers
in the war of 1812, but saw no actual fighting. He was a selectman of
Clinton, his native town, nine or ten years. In1830, at the age of
forty-two he entered the ministry of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Of
that church he has been a prominent divine. During several years
previous to his death he resided in Portland. Although verging towards
eighty, his health was good and his mind clear. At length that event
tookplace which must come to all, and he died in Portland, Feb. 6, 1875,
aged 82.

LEVI RICHARDSON, second son of Maj. Joseph Richardson; b. in Woburn,
Feb. 8, 1733-4; m. Abigail Farwell.
I think he was a soldier in the expedition to Crown Point, from June to
Oct., 1755, in a company commanded by Capt. John Taplin. The record
which is before me says Louis Richardson, another record Says Lewis
Richardson. But in those times there was no Louis or Lewis Richardson,
either of Reading, Woburn, or vicinity. The record should have said Levi.
Levi Richardson was a goldsmith by trade. He was of Hallowell, Me., in
1795, and bought of Thomas Craig, of Readfield, "a certain tract or
parcel of land, with a dwelling-hhouse and barn thereon, in said
Readfield, on the road leading to Sandy River, June 1, 1795." [Lincoln
Deeds, xxxiv.250.]
Levi Richardson, late of hallowell, blacksmith, was sued by D.
Tuckerman, 1796. and by John Jones, 1797 [Lincoln Deeds, xxxvii. 229,
xxxviii. 242.]
After the birth of one child, 1754,he removed to Maine. His widow
Abigail married a Bacon; settled in what is now Waterville, and had six
other children, two sons and four daughters.

General Notes: Husband - Joseph Richardson
Richardson Mem. by J.A.Vinton, 1876, pg 382-383:
DEACON JOSEPH RICHARDSON, son of Joseph and Mary (Carpenter)
Richardson; b. in Standish, Me., July 3, 1785, m., May 26, 1808,
Charlotte Thompson, b. in South Reading, Mass., now Wakefield, May 2,
1786. She was the dau. of Isaac Snow Thompson, M. D., by his wife
Charlotte Hayes. Dr. Thompson was a physician in Baldwin, Me., eldest
son of Daniel Thompson, who was killed by a British grenadier, on the
retreatof the British troops from Concord, April 19, 1775.*
Soon after birth, his parents removed with him from Standish to
Baldwin, then called Flint's town, from Eleazar Flint, one of the early
settlers, and a large proprietor of that township. Thus the scenes amid
which he was brought up were singularly wild and romantic. On a large
rock, the children used to play. One day Joseph and his sister Abigail
were near it amusing themselves, when seeing a large black bear with cubs
approaching, they supposed it a dog, and called it "Bose." The unmolested
brutes went on their way, leaving the children unharmed, to tell the
thrilling story in riper years.
In the midst of the forest was the "camp"where the family made maple
sugar. Here Joseph, while tending the kettles, employed his leisure
moments in reading and committing to memory select versesand hymns from
a fragment of a book, which together with a well-worn copy ofthe
Scriptures, constituted almost the entire family library. These hymns, so
often sung and repeated, were a source of great enjoyment to him in after
life, and their influence was not lost, perhaps is not yet lost upon his
children. In a log hut, in the corner of a large fire-place, by the light
of pitch-pine knots, he learned to cypher, on a piece of whetstone. In
thes e simple ways his education commenced, but he always took pleasure
in adding to it. Finding his way to Fryeburg Academy, he became a
successful teacher of commonschools.
His wife was an active, devoted Christian; the first person who taught a
grammar school in Baldwin, on the westerly slope of Saddleback Mountain,
where all their children were born.
He cultivated and owned a farm in that place, and was respected and
honored by all. He was deacon of the Congregational Church in Baldwin and
Sebago from its organization, in 1821, till his death. This church has
always been small. He, and especially his wife, took a lively interest in
its welfare. He was one of the original trustees of ministerial and
school funds till his death. He was clerk of said boards for several
years; selectman, assessor, and superintending school committee-man at
various times; justice of the peace, etc.
Many conveyances of land by him are on record in the Cumberland
Registry of Deeds. The last is dated 1843, two parcels of land,
respectively of sixty and fifty acres, both in Baldwin on Saco River, to
Ephraim Flint, of Baldwin, formerly Flint's town. [Cumb. Deeds,
cccxxxi.109.]
About the year 1832, he changed his residence to a more easterly part
of Baldwin, where he died, Sept. 21, 1848, aged 63. Charlotte, his wife,
died there Feb. 26, 1843, in he fifty-seventh year.
*Daniel Thompson was thehusband of Phebe Snow, dau. of Phebe Richardson
(Stephen, Joseph, Samuel), see page 219 & 220.

He commenced teaching school at eighteen; was fitted for college at the

farm; then removed to East Baldwin, where he has since been engaged in
trade. He has been postmaster twenty-four years; trustee of ministerial
and school funds of Baldwin twenty-five years; town clerk every year

Ohio, as many did, after an esceedingly cold and unproductive season,
that of 1816, when it was said there was frost every month in the year.
He had two sons, grown to manhood, whom he left behind...

CAPTAIN JOSIAH RICHARDSON, second son of Ezekiel Richardson, one of the
founders of Woburn; baptized in Charlestown, Nov. 7, 1635; m.at Concord,
by Simon Willard of that place, June 6, 1659, to Remembrance Underwood,
born at Concord, Feb. 25, 1639-40, dau. of William and Sarah Underwood of
that place.
He and his brother James Richardson, went to reside in Chelmsford as
early as 1659, which, as just noted, was the year of his marriage.
William Underwood, his wife's father, went in 1654, at the very beginning
of that plantation.
In Chelmsford--incorporated May 29, 1655--Josiah Richardson, though
still a young man rose into consideration, and by his capacity for
business was clothed with important trusts. He was chosen fence-viewer
in 1659; was one of a committee, in 1662-6, to unite with a committee
from Groton, whose territory then joined that of Chelmsford, to lay out a
highway between the two towns. He was admitted freeman of the colony
March 11, 1673-4; was chosen constable in 1667; was one of the board of
selectman in 1668, 1673, 1677, 1679, 1680, and every successive year
after till 1688, inclusive, and again in 1694, making fourteen years in
all. He was town clerk, 1690 to 1694,four years. He was till his death
a leading man in town. He was also captain of a military company, at a
time when military companies were always liable to active and bloody work.
He, with Maj. Thomas Henchman and William Fletcher erected, in 1669,
the second saw-mill in the town. It was in the north-west part of
Chelmsford; I suppose on Stony Brook. For encouragement in building the
mill, a tract of land was granted them. The owners of the mill had full
liberty to take from the "common" unappropriated land, what timber they
saw fit to work in the mill. The people had lived in log-houses long
enough.
Some Indians, "from the love they bore to" Josiah Richardson, of
Chelmsford,conveyed to him, Jan. 19, 1688-9, a parcel of land at the
confluence of the Concord and Merrimack Rivers--where now stands
Lowell--bounded south by a little brook, called Speen's Brook [Midd.
Deeds, xii.204.]
Capt Josiah Richardson died intestate, June 22, 1695, aged 60. His
widow Remembrance and his seven surviving children divide his estate
among them, March 12, 1695-6 {Midd. Prob. Records, as copied Vol. viii.
pp. 811-814.]
His estate was appraised at697.5.6 pounds.

LIEUT. JOSIAH RICHARDSON, eldest son of Capt. Josiah and Remembrance
Richardson; born in Chelmsford, May 18, 1665; m. Dec. 14, 1687, Mercy
Parish* of Dunstable, a dau. of Robert and Elizabeth (Blanchard) Parish,
of Groton.
He lived in Chelmsford, near Concord River; was a lieutenant and
farmer. He was town clerk in 1693 and 1694; selectman, etc.
He died intestate, Oct. 17, 1711, aged 45. His son Josiah was
appointed admin. Nov. 21, 1711. His inventory, dated 1712, amounted to
514.4. pounds. This was reckoned in a depreciated currency; large
emissions of "Bills of Credit" having been issued by the province in
1690, in 1702, 1709 and 1711. Fresh emissions weremade afterwards in
1714, 1716, 1721 and 1724. This fictitious currency fellto less than
one-half of its nominal value.
The widow, Mercy Richardson, died April 25, 1743.
*Her name on the County Records is given as Mary Parris, which is
manifestly incorrect. On the Town Records it is also given as Parris.
Our ancestors said Parris instead of Parish, and Coburn instead of
Colburn, and often in similar cases.

Richardson Mem. by J.A.Vinton, 1876, pg 464-465:
He was prepared for college at Kimball Union Academy, Plainfield, N.H.,
but did not enter college; at least did not graduate. He went througha
course of theological study at the seminary in Bangor, Me., completing
the course in 1837. He was ordained to the work of a missionary to the
heathenon Feb. 1839. In March following, with little delay as possible,
he startedwith his new wife, over land for the Oregon Territory, leaving
the western frontier of the State of Missouri April 22d, and after
traversing an unexplored wilderness of two thousand miles from that
frontier arrived at the missionary station of Dr. Marcus Whiteman, at
Wallawalla, among the Kayuses Indians, Aug 29.
Mr. & Mrs. Walker were accompanied by Messrs. Cushing, Eells, and Asa
Bowen Smith, and their wives, missionaries destined to the same field.
Messrs. Eelis and Walker and their wives spent the winter with Dr.
Whitman. In the following spring they commenced a new station among the
Spokan or FlatheadIndians, near Fort Colville, a trading-post of the
Hudson's Bay Company. It was on the Spokan River, a branch of Clarke's
River, which is the northern branch of Columbia River. They continued to
labor among these Indians between nine and ten years. On the 29th of
November, 1847, the philanthropic and excellent Dr. Whitman, his wife,
Mr. Rogers, his assistant, two adopted children, and nine other white
men, not connected with the mission, were massacred by the Indians, no
previous warning having been given.
In consequence of this terrible affair, all our missions among the
Oregon Indians were speedily discontinued. Mr. & Mrs. Walker removed to
the Willamette Valley. He has since labored among the white people, and
is now, or was lately, pastor of a Congregational Church at Forest Grove,
Washington Co., Oregon.
