Families of the Children of Jane⁵ Washburn and Job⁵ Richmond

The children and grandchildren of Jane “Jenny” Washburn and Job Richmond remained around the Middleborough-Norton-Raynham-Taunton-Attleborough-North Bridgewater-Abington area of Massachusetts except for son Ward Richmond, who moved to New York City, then to Newark, New Jersey. Once again, I have relied heavily on Joshua Bailey Richmond’s The Richmond Family for the Richmond family structure, which, despite its age and lack of documentation, has proven to be relatively accurate when the sources are found and checked against it, except for some of the dates he gives.
