Robert Richards born Monmouth 1788 (General)
Hello,
I am trying to find out more about Robert Richards, born Monmouth St John 1788 (give or take a year).
He served with the Brecon Militia and was a Chelsea Pensioner. His brother Stephen, born Monmouth 1774 (give or take a year), served with the Wiltshire Militia, and was also a Chelsea Pensioner. I have been unable to find birth records for either of them.
Robert was in Brecon by 1823, when he married Ann Davies. He was a nail maker/ironmonger.
Stephen went to Berkshire at some point, as his daughter Sarah was born in Woolhampton, Berkshire. Stephen is with his daughter in Berkshire in 1851, but with brother Robert 1861 in Brecon, where he dies in 1865. Stephen is described in the discharge militia records as a shoemaker by trade.
In hope,
Jenny
