Notes:

Richard's parents were divorced when he was very small and he was raised for the
most part by his grandmother, Elmina, and aunt, Sarah on the Stinnett farm in
Sevier County, Tennessee. When Dickey, as he was called, was about sixteen
years old he and a friend moved to Hartford, Tennessee and found work on the
farm of Allen Joe McGaha, who operated a mill and a tannery along with farming.
After about three years, Dickey married Allen Joe's daughter Katie. He was
nineteen and she was sixteen at the time. He soon found work at the Swift
Company in Hartford, Tennessee.

Richard and Katie moved to Texas after the death of their fourth child in 1895.
They traveled in a covered wagon and down the Mississippi in a flat bottomed
boat. They went to the home of his uncle Ben, to pick cotton and possibly work
on the railroad. Their first son to live, George Mack, was born in Ennis, Texas
in 1896. Katie and George Mack returned to Hartford, traveling in the caboose
of a train and Dickey followed after the crops were harvested that year.

Dickey and Katie then moved their family to Hazelwood, North Carolina where
Dickey worked as a tanner. In 1906, when Champion moved into the area he got a
job as carpenter for them. He went with a crew to Savannah, Georgia and was
getting ready to move his family there when he died of malaria.

His body was moved back to Hartford and buried beside his children in the
Redmond-Valentine Cemetery.
