Ebenezer Richmond, son of Edward (6), in the J. B. Richmond book, and a close relative of my Elijah Richmond:

From History of Allegany Co., New York, Town of Independence:
"Others who came during the year (1823) were Ebenezer Richmond, David S. Briggs, Alvah Wood, Conrad Minges, Daniel Dexter, John Wheeler and Simeon Wilcox. Richmond, a native of Oneida county, moved in during the month of January, from Steuben county, bringing in several cattle and sheep. He had come the previous fall and located land and built a house. Richmond and Briggs are both dead. The latter died in September, 1861." [Note: Louisa Richmond was a widow by 1870]

In 1880, Mrs. Louisa Richmond was a widow and living with her son, Henry, in Independence, Allegany Co., New York:

A 1925 newspaper article said that Mrs. Harvey Richmond of Whitesville, suffered a broken ankle. The newspapers are online at the Andover (NY) Free Library; Andover is in Allegany Co., New York. Even if the article does not pertain to the Mrs. Harvey Richmond of the generation listed above, I've now found a new source to explore. Harvey Story Richmond was a widower in 1900, so it wasn't his wife in the article.

Edward A. Richmond's Will

The Will of Edward A. Richmond of Willing, Allegany Co., New York:


RECORD OF THE WILL OF EDWARD A. RICHMOND

I, Edward A. Richmond of the town of Willing County of Allegany and State of New York occupation a farmer make this my last Will to give devise and bequeath my estate and property real and personal to my dearly beloved wife Lucretia M. Richmond after paying my funeral expenses and all just debts and demands against me, to be for her support and maintenance during her lifetime and at her death to also further devise and bequeath that (after paying the funeral expenses of my said wife) that all my property real and personal be equally divided between my (4) four children, Leroy F. Richmond, Mary E. Richmond, Emma J. Richmond and Della F. Richmond as follows, one fourth to Leroy F. Richmond and his heirs, one fourth to Mary E. Davis (formerly Mary E. Richmond) and her heirs, and one fourth to Emma J. Payne (formerly Emma J. Richmond) and her heirs and one fourth to Della F. Smith (formerly Della F. Richmond) and her heirs.

I appoint A. E. Foster of the town of Willing county and State aforesaid, occupation a farmer as executor of this my will.

Edward A. Richmond {Seal}

See the original blog post (including the aforementioned will transcript, but not a copy of the will) for Edward A. Richmond here.

The Family of Dulcinea L. (Harris) Payne

While researching the Edward A. Richmond family (the son of Ebenezer & Louisa (Gott) Richmond), the following article in the Spokane Spokesman-Review newspaper, dated January 1, 1995, featuring researcher Pam Payne, was found.

The newspaper article focused on Pam's great-great grandmother, Dulcinea L. (Harris) Payne, daughter of Jason & Sarah Lucretia Richmond Harris. Sarah Lucretia was the sister of the aforementioned Edward A. Richmond and is #5282 in the Joshua Richmond Bailey book (on page 474). Pam's family and my Richmond line merge with Ebenezer Richmond's father, Edward.

The article noted that Dulcenia left her husband and son back in New York and moved to Spokane where she opened a business with her son-in-law, Everett Spicer. Lorenzo Payne was enumerated with his son Ambrose in Allegany Co., NY, in 1900 and was listed as a widower. His wife, Dulcina Payne was in Spokane, Washington, in 1900, so Lorenzo was not a widower.

The Payne family was still together and living in Allegany Co., New York when the 1880 Census was taken:
Lorenzo PAYNE Self M W 44 MA Farmer MA MA
Delcina PAYNE Wife M W 38 NY Keeping House NY NY
Effie PAYNE Dau S W 20 NY At Home MA NY

Ambrose B. PAYNE Son S W 13 NY At School MA NY
Cyrus M. PAYNE Son S W 7 NY MA NY
Sena PAYNE Dau S W 3 NY MA NY
Manda PAYNE Dau S W 5M NY MA NY

Dulcinea's death record in now online:

I believe that this is the death record for Dulcinea's son-in-law, "Everett" Spicer:

Death place: Spokane, Spokane, Washington

This is most probably the Edward A. & Lucretia (Harris) Richmond family who lived in Allegany Co., NY; daughter Mary (May) was born in Virginia and so is this Mary, plus the ages match up pretty well.

While doing a quick search of the 1885 Colorado State Census for Larimer County, no Richmonds were found.  The Mar(tin) Davis family was living there in 1885, including Martin Davis's mother, Salome Davis.  This needs to be double-checked; the findagrave entry for Salome H. Davis says that she died in 1881.

Just a little bit more about the Edward A. Richmond family.
