SOURCES: St. Mary's, Bury, P.R.: Oswestry P.R.; SL Temple Records. Occ: Shoemaker (given at time of marriage) --Early family records gave Richard's birthplace as Osuelra, Wales, England. This caused some confusion, but Oswestry is right near the Welsh/English border and seems to be the proper location. Checks were made in the Oswaldtwhistle P.R., just north of Bury, but nothing was found. The early records also only gave one child, Alice.
