Ancestry of Bill Richardson (original) (raw)

The following material on the immediate ancestry of William Blaine Richardson, Governor of New Mexico, should not be considered either exhaustive or definitive, but rather as a first draft.

In his autobiography Between worlds [:] the making of an American life [New York: Putnam, 2005], p. 8 (and elsewhere), Gov. Richardson refers to himself as "the child of an American father and a Mexican mother". This is often distorted by journalists and others who refer to the Governor as "half-American, half-Mexican", when in fact the Governor's American-national father was born in Nicaragua, son of an American-born father and a Mexican mother, while the Governor's mother was daughter of a Spanish-born father and a Mexican mother, thus making Bill Richardson one-quarter American (specifically Massachusetts and Maine Yankee), one-quarter Spanish (specifically Asturian), and half Mexican (specifically Oaxacan).

I'd like to thank Robert Battle and Christopher Challender Child for their major contributions to this report. Others who helped include David Curtis Dearborn, Julie Helen Otto, and James W. Cummings.

Most (though not all) of the distant relationships in the "Notes" section below were extracted from the Ancestry World Tree database of George Larson II. Tom Gede

contributed and/or corrected some other relationships.

NOTES

While the Governor and his father both refer to themselves as "William Blaine Richardson", it should be pointed out that all references to the Governor's grandfather, and all references to the Governor's father by his Massachusetts relatives, call them both "William Blaney Richardson". The name clearly was originally "Blaney" (the grandfather's father, William Everett Richardson, had been assistant wharfinger at Boston's Central Wharf under James Mears Blaney, and succeeded Blaney as wharfinger about the time the governor's grandfather was born), but the date of the change from "Blaney" to "Blaine" is unknown, as is the reason for the change.

Even though the banker William B. Richardson ("Big Bill") was a public figure, it was very difficult to determine his parentage and origin. The Boston Globe printed an obituary article on him in the 7/29/72 issue, and another article in the 7/30/72 issue about his funeral, but while both of these articles mention his college football career (he was one of the first centers to snap the ball through his legs rather than from the side, and he was involved in a pile-up in the Tufts-Army game in 1913 in which a sophomore cadet, Dwight D. Eisenhower, broke his leg), neither mention his parents or where he was born or anything about him before he entered Tufts.

The article in Time magazine on his retirement (vol. 67, no. 23 [June 4, 1956], p. 45, col. 3) refers to him as "a heavy-set Bostonian", but his birth is not recorded in the Massachusetts Vital Records.

On 16 March 1954, Mr. Richardson participated in a Town Hallradio broadcast on Mexican-US friendship, and a transcript of this show was published in vol. 19, no. 46, of Town Meeting. The biographical information on the speakers says, of Mr. Richardson, that he was "a product of Boston grammar schools" and that he "prepared for college at Goddard Seminary, Barre, Vermont" [p. 16].

The Catalogue of Tufts College for 1914-1915 (when he was a senior) and 1913-1914 (when he was a junior) state that he resided at the Delta Tau Delta fraternity house and that his home town was Boston, but the Catalogs for 1912-1913 (when he was a sophomore) and 1911-1912 (when he was a freshman) state that he resided in one of the general student dormitories and that his home town was "Fisher's Island, N.Y.".

Tufts University maintains, in its archives (in Spring 2004 located in the basement of the Tisch Library building on the grounds of the Tufts campus in Medfield, Mass.), a vertical file on each student who attended Tufts, and a card file index of citations to the various Tufts publications. For example, when Tufts awarded Mr. Richardson with its Distinguished Service Award in 1950, the text of the presentation was printed in the Tufts Alumni Review, vol. 4, no. 4 (Summer 1950), p. 18. And when Mr. Richardson spoke to the Class of 1965 on behalf of the Class of 1915, the text of his remarks was printed in the Tufts Alumni Review, vol. 11, no. 3 (August 1965), p. 33. All of these are cited in the card file, as is an entry inThe Tufts College Graduate, vol. XVIII, no. 2 (December-February, 1919-20), p. 103, in which:

      '15.   William B. Richardson was mar-
      ried on November 12, to Mary Pescetto,
      daughter of Col. and Mrs. Edward
      Pescetto, of Genoa, Italy.  Mr. Richard-
      son represents the National City Bank
      of New York in Italy.  He expects to
      return to the United States about the
      middle of February.

Which means that María Luisa López-Collada (the Governor's mother) was Mr. Richardson's second wife (at least).

The vertical file on Mr. Richardson in the Tufts archives consists mostly of letters from Tufts administrators asking for money, Mr. Richardson's cover letters when he sent his $1000.00 checks, and letters from the Tufts administrators thanking Mr. Richardson for his generous donation.

One of the items in the Tufts vertical file on Mr. Richardson is this extraordinary letter dated July 14, 1961, and sent from Frank A. Tredennick Jr to Dr. Nils Y. Wessell (who at the time was president of Tufts University):

      I had a long discussion this week with Fred J. Lauerman, executive

assistant to the president of Mexico City College. He reported to me that Mexico City College had made its greatest stride forward in years by forcibly deposing Bill Richardson from the board of trustees. The general feeling, how- ever, is that the action came too late and that Richardson's leadership has been so misdirected and yet so strong that the College will probably go under in the next year or two.

      Richardson evidently has a reputation in Mexico of being quite a thrifty

individual. His total giving to Mexico City College has amounted to slightly more than $2,000 and most of this was made in the form of a single gift. His capabili- ties are definitely major.

      Lauerman had heard a lot about Tufts from Richardson, and he knew either

from Richardson or from educational fund-raising sources that we were starting a program. He strongly urged us to see him this year because of his health situa- tion. He has had a couple of operations for various reasons and evidently has a serious cirrhosis condition which is not improving.

      His wife will be a key person in any gift that is made and evidently

there are two small children so that a life-income reserved gift might come into play. Do not underestimate the role of the wife. She is Mexican and was, I be- lieve, his secretary at one time.

      This would seem to me to make imperative the immediate setting aside of

some time for a southwest trip on your part with a date in Mexico City as the key to the whole business. It would not seem too early to write to Richardson right now in an effort to set up this date for sometime in the fall and after confirma- tion on Richardson's part we could attempt to build the rest of the trip. You are holding some dates tentatively if I am not mistaken.

                           Frank A. Tredennick, Jr.

Most of Mr. Richardson's contributions to Tufts occurred in the decade after this letter was sent.

Shortly after Mr. Richardson's death, there was some correspondence between his widow and his son (the current Governor) on the one hand and Tufts administrators on the other hand, promising a donation of several thousand dollars if Tufts would rename its baseball fields in memory of the late William Blaine Richardson. It should be noted that the elder William Blaine Richardson (the banker) played football, not baseball, for Tufts, while the younger William Blaine Richardson (the Governor) played baseball for Tufts. The file does not reflect whether the renaming and/or the donation were accomplished.

There is almost nothing in the vertical file which would shed any light on Mr. Richardson's background, except for the text of the press release issued by the Tufts University Office of Public Information on 28 July 1972 announcing Mr. Richardson's death. The first paragraph on page 3 of this press release states that "Richardson could not really call any town or city his hometown since his father, a collector of museum items, constantly travelled around the world."

As an aside, the date of birth given above for Mr. Richardson (25 May 1891) is the birthdate given for him in the Social Security Death Index. However, Elizabeth Gilmore, a Taos midwife and a childhood neighbor and schoolmate of "little Billy Richardson" (the future Governor), states that she, the dean of Mexico City College, and Billy's dad, all had the same birthday (Sept. 9). See

http://www.taosnews.com/Supplement/Tradiciones/Heroes-06.html.No explanation for this disparity has been found.

As another aside, Mexico City College changed its name in 1963 to "University of the Americas" and in 1968 to Universidad de las Américas.

In June 2004, the "ancestry.com" website added online access to the World War I draft registration cards for the state of Massachusetts. Robert Battle noticed that one of these cards was for a William B. Richardson. An extract of the information from the card (as best as can be determined from the out-of-focus image):

Registration card:

(additional handwritten comment):

James J. Murphy Jr

Chinandega, currently [2005] Nicaragua's third-largest city, is in western Nicaragua, near the Pacific Ocean. This date of birth (25 May 1891) for William Blaine Richardson, the banker, matches the birthdate given in the Social Security Death Index, but doesn't explain why Elizabeth Gilmore, the Taos midwife (above), claims that his birthday was Sept. 9.

In his autobiography, the Governor says (on p. 11) that his father was born on a boat on its way to Nicaragua.

In August 2004, Robert Battle obtained the Social Security application form filed by William Blaine Richardson, the banker. The following is the relevant information from the form:

Name: William Blaine Richardson Address: National City Bank of New York, Apartado 87 bis, Mexico City, Mexico Age: 59 Date of birth: 25 May 1891 Place of birth: Chinandega, Nicaragua Father's name: William Blaine Richardson of Boston, Mass. Mother's name: Rose Ojeda Date: 10 Feb 1951 SSN: 091-26-0177

In November 2007, the "ancestry.com" website added online access to US passport applications from 1795 to 1925. William B. Richardson Jr was issued passport 36122 on 7 Oct 1916, passport 39659 on 18 Nov 1916, passport 120986 on 24 Sept. 1919, and passport 97382 on 12 Nov 1921. In each of his applications he states he was born in Chinandega, Nicaragua, on 25 May 1891, and that his father, William B. Richardson, was born in Boston, Mass., and that he [the father] resided in Matagalpa, Nicaragua, at the time of the application. He [the applicant] is described in each of the applications as 5 feet 10 1/2 inches tall, black hair, olive complexion, etc. Each application includes a photograph of the applicant. A copy of the photograph on the application which resulted in passport 36122 can be found here.

On 14 May 1920, he filed papers asking that passport 120986 be amended to include his wife Mary, born 14 Oct. 1898 in Spagra, Italy. Passport 97382 was for him and his wife Mary, and refers to a "Marriage Certificate issued by City Hall, Genoa, Italy, Nov. 14, 1919". Both of these include photos of Mary.

In each of his passport applications he used the form for native citizens of the United States, even though he had been born in Nicaragua. The reason for this is that US nationality law at the time extended US native citizenship to foreign-born persons whose father [not mother] was born in the United States.

3 -- She appears to be the María Luisa López-Collada who was the middle child of the five López-Collada Márquez siblings, for whom see http://www.comunicana.com/garfias/fotos.htm. My thanks to Heath Haussamen

for this citation.

The webpage http://www.facmed.unam.mx/infantil/ixtlilton/segmentos_Ag04.pdf(which discusses her daughter Vesta), says of Vesta that "Su madre, poseedora de un extraordinario encanto, es la Sra. María Luisa López-Collada, de una prestigiada familia Oaxaqueña ... ".

A biography of Dr. Zubirán can be found at http://www.fns.org.mx/index.php?IdContenido=3&IdSubContenido=30.

On 26 June 1950 Maria Luisa Collado de Richardson entered the United States at El Paso, Texas, and was granted visa 873171. In the border crossing record (available at ancestry.com), she was said to have been born on 6-18-1914 at Mexico, D.F., Mexico; travelling on Mexican passport 16507; and visiting Mrs. Rosa Richardson.

As mentioned above, the Tufts University press release announcing the death of William Blaine Richardson, the banker, says that his father (the Governor's grandfather) was "a collector of museum items" who "constantly travelled around the world." Robert Battle has found a number of instances where a "William B Richardson" or "W B Richardson" collected biological specimens for the American Museum of Natural History (and other museums) in Nicaragua and elsewhere in Central and South America between 1886 and 1911.

For example,

http://www.digimorph.org/specimens/Choloepus_hoffmanni/:two-toed sloth skull "collected from Matagalpa, Tuma, Nicaragua by William B. Richardson" http://www.cricyt.edu.ar/mn/indice/pdf/10_2/genoways.pdf:"Chontales and Ro Coco are two of the collecting sites visited by William B. Richardson, who obtained specimens for American Museum of Natural History (Allen, 1908, 1910). These and others of Richardson's collecting localities have been difficult to pinpoint with accuracy.... The only mention of the giant anteater in Nicaragua is a report to Allen (1910: 94) in letters from his field collector William R. Richardson that the species occurs in the 'forest lowlands of the east coast.'" http://diglib1.amnh.org/bulletins/i0003-0090-257-01-0001.pdf:"collected at...Esmeraldas, Ecuador, on 10 November 1912, by William B. Richardson.... collected at La Manuelita...near Palmira, Valle del Cauca, Colombia, on 11 April 1911, by Frank M. Chapman and William B. Richardson.... collected at Ro Grande, Nicaragua, on 1 April 1908, by William B. Richardson. COMMENTS: According to a letter in the Department of Ornithology Archives from Richardson to Allen, 5 October 1908, Richardson was enclosing a rough map of his collecting localities. This map is no longer present. However, Allen (1908: 647) reported on the mammals collected by Richardson on this trip and placed Ro Grande south of Tuma and at a somewhat lower altitude. Gazetteer no. 25, 1956, of the U.S. Board on Geographic Names...lists a town called Ro Grande...which may be where Richardson collected. In his letter, Richardson stated that he collected 'down on the Atlantic slope to 700 feet where it rains the year round.'" (many more instances of things Richardson collected in various South-Central American locations). http://diglib1.amnh.org/novitates/i0003-0082-3373-01-0001.pdf:"The holotype and 11 paratypes of Handleyomys fuscatus were collected near San Antonio by William B. Richardson, a professional collector employed by the 1911 AMNH expedition to Colombia."

Also in the French West Indies in 1886:

This page contains link to list of specimens collected by W. B. Richardson in Nicaragua from 1891 to 1892:http://www.avesnicaragua.org/ColeccionesMuseos.htm.

Presumably all of these refer to William B. Richardson, the father of William B. Richardson, the banker, and grandfather of William B. Richardson, the governor.

Eddy Kühl Aráuz writes regularly for El Nuevo Diarioon the history of Matagalpa, Nicaragua.

In http://www-ni.elnuevodiario.com.ni/archivo/2002/julio/06-julio-2002/opinion/opinion3.html he refers to "del naturalista americano William Richardson en 1898 quien se quedó a vivir en Matagalpa".In http://www-ni.elnuevodiario.com.ni/archivo/1999/octubre/14-octubre-1999/opinion/opinion2.html he refers to "El médico militar del hospital de los marinos el cual estaba ubicado en una casa de William Richardson frente a la Power de Willey era el Dr. John Stubert." And in http://www-ni.elnuevodiario.com.ni/archivo/2000/agosto/26-agosto-2000/opinion/opinion3.html he quotes a letter dated "23 de Junio 1901" from Britta de Viggh, a Swedish expatriate living in Matagalpa. At one point in the letter, she says "El y señora esposa, la niña Rosa, vivien aquí en el pueblo otra vez en una casa grande y nueva, que ha hecho el señor don Rosario Leytón atrás de su otra casa en la calle atravesada, es decir frente de la casa nueva de Richardson donde se retrataron usted y Erick la última vez, y por esa pagan $45 pesos mensuales. William Richardson ha hecho una casa extraña, de madera, con casa alta en la esquina, pintada de azul."

Alsohttp://www.asiesnicaragua.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=1, in an article on Matagalpa, Nicaragua, makes reference to "del naturalista americano William Richardson (quien llegó en 1898 y finalmente se quedó a vivir en Matagalpa)."

Presumably all of these also refer to William B. Richardson, the father of William B. Richardson, the banker, and grandfather of William B. Richardson, the governor.

Juan C. Martínez-Sánchez, in "Records of new or little known birds for Nicaragua",The Condor, vol. 91 [1989], pp. 468-469, says that "the professional collector W. B. Richardson resided in Matagalpa from the 1890s until at least 1927 and obtained bird specimens throughout this time span."

The W. B. Richardson mentioned (and pictured) in the article "Flying Birdmen" by A. L. Rand in Natural History Magazine, Oct. 1940, pages 136-141, appears to be someone else.

An article in the Boston Daily Globe, 27 Dec. 1888, p. 2, says that "William B. Richardson, collector for the British museum, lately returned to the States from a trip through Mexico and Central America for that establishment, gave a talk on his experiences while on that trip before the Boston Scientific Society, at 419 Washington street, last evening. ... Mr. Richardson is a young Boston man, a relative of one of our prominent bankers, and a very enterprising and persevering man ... ".

A further article in the Boston Daily Globe, 22 Sept. 1910, p. 14, includes a photograph of the naturalist, and starts out:

William B. Richardson, who has won renown in America and Great Britain as a naturalist, is paying a brief visit to his native city of Boston for the fifth time in 25 years.

The article states that he

was born in Boston in 1869, his fa- ther being the late William E. Rich- ardson, who was for many years the wharfinger at Central and India wharves. An uncle is Spencer W. Rich- ardson, the retired banker, ...

Further,

Since 1892 Mr. Richardson has been engaged in coffee and cattle raising in Matagalpa, Nicaragua, and still holds an interest in the enterprise.
About 22 years ago he married a Mexican woman, "one of the noblest women in the world", he says. She died four years ago leaving six chil- dren. One son, William B. Richardson Jr, a student in Goddard seminary, Barre, Vt, his father has not seen for four years until his present visit to New England. During the summer he has acted as interpreter for the Spanish yachtsmen at Marblehead, and they have asked him to go to Spain with them next year and become an inter- preter for Americans and Britons at their mercantile house.
Mr Richardson also has a daughter in Guadapalpa, who last year married her second cousin, Amor Richardson, the son of Spencer W. Richardson, who went to Nicaragua 12 years ago to en- ter business with the man who has since become his father-in-law.

One daughter, aged seven years, is in Boston, and will be left with her grandmother when he leaves. Another daughter is in college in Managua, Nicaragua, and the two younger chil- dren are with their sister, Mrs Amor Richardson.

The precise number of children of William B. Richardson, the naturalist, and the identities of all of their mothers, does not appear to be known. The 1910 article (above) says that his wife had six children, while the will of his mother (below) refers to his ten children. Gov. Richardson, in his autobiography, says (on p. 12) that "My grandfather apparently had a roving eye, and the story is that he fathered children by four different women in Mexico and Central America."

At least two of his children are by his second wife, Maria de Jesús Lugo Laguna.

His death certificate, issued in Matagalpa, reads:

Partida de Defunción No. 242.

En la ciudad de Matagalpa a la una de la mañana del día 1 de Diciembre de 1927, compareció el señor Humberto Sánchez R., casado, negociante de este domicilio y dice que a las dos de la mañana del día de hoy falleció de disentería el señor don Guillermo Richardson, de 58 años de edad, casado en segundas nupcias con la señora María Lugo.

William B. Richardson, born at Boston, Mass., on 19 March 1868, was granted US passport 3544 on 14 Nov 1885 (at the age of 17 years 8 months).

5 -- The 1930 Federal Census of Pasadena, Cal., includes an entry for Mrs. Rosaura Richardson, daughter of William B. Richardson and Rosaura Ojedo. In the census schedule, this Mrs. Richardson (aunt of the governor) is enumerated as a "Mulatto". On the other hand, the entry in the 1930 Federal Census of San Bernardino, Cal., for Mrs. Mary A. Dustin, another daughter of William B. Richardson and Rosaura Ojedo, refers to this aunt of the Governor as "White". See the Census extracts, above.

6 -- On 4 March 1931 Manuel Lopez-Collado entered the United States at El Paso, Texas (entry number 183123). In the border crossing record (available at ancestry.com), his age is given as 49, born in Villaviciosa, Oviedo, Spain, occupation salesman, traveling alone, wife Maria Marquez remaining at home (71 Ave Jalisco, Mexico DF, Mexico). Other border crossings of his from Mexico through El Paso occurred on 31 May 1935 and 2 November 1929 (where he is said to have Spanish nationality and is travelling on Spanish Pasa Port #1689 issued in Mexico City on 9/3/29).

WM. E. RICHARDSON DEAD Had Been at Central Wharf 45 Years

-- Lived in Cambridge.

William Everett Richardson died yesterday at his home, 29 Ware st., Cambridge, aged 77. Mr. Richardson was a son of the late Peter R. Richardson of Boston, formerly of Princeton, Mass. The elder Richardson and his wife were friends of Squire Russell and wife, grandparents of the late Gov Russell, who lived in Princeton.
William came to Boston in 1839, and resided on Williams st., now Congress st. He had been at Central wharf 45 years, and for the last 34 years he had been wharfinger, succeeding William Blaney in that position. He served in the civil war in the 21st and 32d Massachusetts regiments, and has been president of those regimental associations and also of the Roanoke association. Mr. Richardson left two sons and daughter. The elder son, William Blaney Richardson, is a planter and distinguished naturalist of Matagalpa, Nicaragua. The younger is Dr. Frank A. Richardson of Cambridge. The daughter is the wife of Lieut. Brainerd Taylor, USA, now on duty in Boston harbor. Deceased was a member of the Loyal Legion, as were four of his brothers. They are James M., who served in the 21st and 44th Massachusetts infantry; Spencer W., who was in the 44th infantry, and Edward B., who served in the 45th infantry. The last three named are living. Another brother, the late Henry P. Richardson, served under Fremont in California.

(These are the only occurrences where Peter Richardson is said to be Peter R. Richardson). The brother Edward B., is Edward Bangs Richardson, died Brookline 21 Apr. 1909.

The "William Blaney" mentioned in the Globe obituary was actually James M. Blaney who was wharfinger at Central Wharf until around 1869 (see below). James Mears Blaney was born at Roxbury, Mass. 26 August 1791 and died at Brookline, Mass. 31 March 1880, the son of William and Catherine (Mears) Blaney. He married Mary Beeman at Hallowell, Maine 6 September 1818. Mary was born at Maine May 1792 and died at Brookline 15 September 1874.

This Francis Allen Richardson was born at Boston on 19 Feb. 1874 and was graduated from Harvard in the class of 1896. He contributed biographical information about himself to each of the class reports, and his obituary notice appears in the 50th anniversary class report [1946], on p. 345. He was a physician and died at San Francisco, California, on 18 May 1936, unmarried. See also the Boston Evening Transcript, 20 May 1936, p. 14.

The will of Francis Allen Richardson alias Francis A. Richardson, docket #275604 in Suffolk County, Massachusetts, dated 13 August 1934, filed 26 May 1936, and allowed 9 June 1936, was extracted in November and December 2005 by Christopher Challender Child. The decedent's residence was San Francisco, California. The will gave bequests as follows:

• to my nephew William Blaney Richardson of the National City Bank of New York at Mexico City, Mexico I leave one-fifth (1/5) of my claim on the estate of Clifford S. Drake on account of the John O. Marr loan
• to my nephew Brainerd Taylor, Holabird Quartermaster Depot, Baltimore, Md., I leave one-fifth (1/5) of my claim on the estate of Clifford S. Drake on account of the John O. Marr loan
• to my nephew Harold Taylor, Holabird Quartermaster Depot, Baltimore, Md., I leave one-fifth (1/5) of my claim on the estate of Clifford S. Drake on account of the John O. Marr loan
• to my niece Rosa Natalie Richardson, 970 Woodbury Road, Pasadena, California, I leave one-fifth (1/5) of my claim on the estate of Clifford S. Drake on account of the John O. Marr loan
• to my niece Lucia Richardson Navarro, Matagalpa, Nicaragua, I leave one-fifth (1/5) of my claim on the estate of Clifford S. Drake on account of the John O. Marr loan
• to my niece Flora Richardson Rourk, Matagalpa, Nicaragua, I leave one-third (1/3) of my claim of the California Mutual Building and Loan Association now in the hands of the State Commission for Liquidation
• to my niece Aida Richardson Dustin, 1297 Muscotti St., San Bernardino, California, I leave one-third (1/3) of my claim of the California Mutual Building and Loan Association now in the hands of the State Commission for Liquidation
• to my niece Margarita Richardson Baldizon, Matagalpa, Nicaragua, I leave one-third (1/3) of my claim of the California Mutual Building and Loan Association now in the hands of the State Commission for Liquidation
• to my niece Amada Richardson Sanchez, Matagalpa, Nicaragua, I leave my entire account with Northwest Savings and Loan Association of Tacoma, Washington
• to my nephew Antonio Richardson and nieces Amanda and Evangelina Richardson, I leave my entire account in the Pierce County Savings and Loan Association of Tacoma, Washington, share and share alike. He then leaves various amounts of money and other items to various friends for various reasons. To his friend Sarah A. Jameson of Wellesley, Mass., he leaves her the equity in his home at 281 Weston Road in Wellesley and is instructed to give some of the personal property in this house to his relatives, according to her judgement. He also gives Ms. Jameson 10%. He divides the remaining percentages to others as well as 7% to his nieces Flora, Aida and Margarita.

Part of his will is contested by his brother-in-law Lieut. Brainerd Taylor over the provision of properties contained in the house in Wellesley, Mass. given to Ms. Jameson. Mr. Taylor contends more items should be given to his sons as they were the sons that lived with their grandmother, Vesta Richardson, and most of the property in this house belonged to her. He also says that from 1902-1905, Brainerd Taylor and his wife lived in Fort Andrews, Massachusetts and Fort Banks, Massachusetts, and took care of his widowed mother-in-law Vesta, as well as William, Aida, and Rosa Richardson, the "children of Vesta's oldest son William Blaney Richardson." From 1905-1908 they lived with the mother-in-law Vesta and the daughters Aida and Rosa in Lousiana, and from 1911-1913 they lived in California with Vesta and Aida. Brainerd Taylor also describes his brother-in-law Francis as "a confirmed nomad."

As an aside, when Brainerd Richardson Taylor married Elia Ocampo in Mexico City on 13 June 1934, William E. [sic] Richardson was best man for his cousin, and the post-wedding reception was at Mr. Richardson's home. See the New York Times, 19 June 1934, p. 23.

As another aside, Eddy Kühl Aráuz (see above) had an article in El Nuevo Diario in July 2000, available at

http://archivo.elnuevodiario.com.ni/2000/julio/06-julio-2000/nacional/nacional14.html,on the later careers of the Nicaraguan aunts of Gov. Richardson (the nieces of Francis A. Richardson and granddaughters of Mrs. Vesta Hodsdon Richardson) and some of their descendants. For example, Francisco Navarro, husband of Lucia Richardson, was Vice President of Nicaragua in 1937.

Alejandro Fiallos Navarro (b. 1956), grandson of Lucia Richardson, great-great-grandson of William Everett Richardson the wharfinger, and a first cousin once removed of Gov. Bill Richardson, is executive president of Empresa Portuaria Nacional, the Nicaraguan Port Authority. Alejandro's brother, Francisco, was Nicaraguan Ambassador to the United States in the early 1980s, and is currently [2006] the Nicaraguan Ambassador to Costa Rica.

Of sound judgement, he was employed by the Boston Board of Trade to adjust the freights on the great trade routes. They [Peter and Mehitable] now [1883] reside in Hubbardston, Mass."

FURTHER NOTES

The National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR) publishes a Patriot Index, a list of persons whose honorable service in the cause of independence during the American Revolution renders their female descendants eligible for membership in the NSDAR. Several ancestors of Bill Richardson appear in thePatriot Index, including:

John Gill (number 70)
Thomas Hodsdon (number 72)
John Mirick (number 66)
William Richardson (number 64)

While Mr. Richardson is not eligible for membership in the NSDAR (by not being female), he is eligible for membership in the equivalent organization for men, the National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution.
