| - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - TIMOTHY RICHARDSON, of Kittery, Maine. Whose son he was I have not been able to discover, but it appears almost certain that he was one of the Attleborough Richardsons, and a cousin to that other Timothy Richardson who was a son of Timothy4 [1785], and the husband of Alice Wyman. His name occurs in sundry conveyances of land; and he married Mary Staples, daughter of James Staples, of Kittery, Maine. On May 25, 1741 Timothy Richardson, of Kittery, husbandman, bought of Robert Brooks, of Biddeford, three-quarters of an acre of land with a house on it, in Kittery, bounded in part by Piscataqua River (York Deeds, xxiii. 30). On Sept. 2, 1749 Timothy Richardson, yeoman, of Kittery, and wife Mary, sold to Benjamin Stacy, of Kittery, the ninth part of sixty acres of land in Berwick. Said sixty acres is part of one hundred acres set off to James Staples, etc. (York Deeds, xxviii. 157). From this deed and the next, it appears that the wife was Mary Staples, daughter of James Staples. On Aug. 13, 1755 Timothy Richardson, of Kittery, laborer, and Mary, his wife, Catherine Fernald, of Portsmouth [her sister], and Samuel Staples, of Falmouth, sold to John Shapleigh, gentleman, and Joseph Staples, yeoman, both of Kittery, "all the right they had in two-thirds of the estate of their father, James Staples, of Kittery, deceased" (York Deeds, xxxiii. 1). Other documents confirm what is stated above. His will is dated Nov. 16, 1786; proved April 1, 1793. He must have died in the interval. Wife Mary is executrix with son Joseph. So far as the compiler can discover from the documents in his possession, Timothy Richardson, of Attleborough, removed to Kittery, in Maine, in the summer of 1741, after having bought a house and some land there. Not long after, he married Mary Staples, daughter of James Staples, of Kittery. His children were: Timothy, Joseph, Abigail, Mary, Elizabeth, Susanna, Catharine.
