Anne is the daughter of Henry Richards of Glynn. [see Decendants of John Richards for detail.] This Anne is almost certainly wife of William Bolton (Clasheen). Anne Richards Bolton from Ardamine was born July 29 1804 and died April 16, 1881. This Anne is the correct generation (along with the other candidate in the pedigree Anne daughter of Henry Richards and Sarah Butler -- but it is known from other sources that that Anne married John Hadden in 1836). Christopher Richards (e-mail 11/06/02) writes: "My gt gt gt grandfather Solomon Richards (1758-1819) bought an estate at Ardamine in March 1818. Among the tenants listed in the Deed of sale are Henry Richards senr, Edward Richards and Henry Richards." Solomon's grand-father John was settled in Raheen near Enniscorthy (later called Solsborough) by about 1740 -- this family came to Ireland with Cromwell and are not related to Anne's family. Anna's father was Edward, her uncle was Henry and her grandfather Henry. Anne's sister Frances married their second cousin George Pickering Richards whose initials appear to be on the Richards Family Tree documents. He most likely is the author of the fragmented version of the pedigree document and author or at least reviewer of the complete copied one. William Bolton's cousin Fossey Bolton was a Churchwarden for the Ardamine and Killena parishes. The churchwardens listed in "Notes on Ardamine and Killena Parishes - 1929" include 1814 Henry Richards of Glynn, 1816 Henry Richards, 1818 & 1819 Richard Bolton of Ballyduff, 1820 Edwards Richards, 1824 & 1825 & 1842 & 1849 & 1877 Fossey Bolton of Ballylusk, 1835 Henry Bolton of Primrose Cottage, 1844 & 1850 Solomon Richards of Grass Park, 1845 Sheppard Richards, 1861 S. Richards of Glynn, 1874 Mr. Solomon Richards of Glynn, 1876 Mr. Thomas Richards, 1881 Fossey Bolton Jr., and 1883 Frederick Richards of Glynn. Also: Married at Monamolin Church, Gorey, 2 Apr 1861, Richard Earl (full age widower -- farmer) to Jemima Richards (full age, spinster of Clasheen whose father was Edward), Witnesses Samuel Lee and John Bolton. Posit that Anne's sister Jemima was living at Clasheen and married Richard Earl -- the Earl family were close neighbors. Samuel Lee is the son-in-law of Anne Richards Bolton, and I suspect that John Bolton is her brother-in-law. Finally Susan Patience Keppel (as reported by Alex Buchanan) living in 2002 of Glynn was the second wife of Albert Solomon Richards of Glynn understood that she was descendent from a Ned (Edward) Richards of Glynn through the Keppel, Bolton family. Anne Richards Bolton's daughter married William Keppel and were Susan Patience Keppel's grandparents. Edward Bolton was Anne Richards-Bolton's father and Susan Patience her grand-daughter. Edward Richards was the uncle to Solomon Richards grand-father.
