Surnames: Richardson, Richison, Montgomery, Clausen, Denton, Lutz
I am seeking any information on my half great uncle and his family. He was James C. Richardson (Richison), born March 1852 in Overton Co., TN to John Newton Richardson and Deborah Denton. James married Nancy Ann Montgomery probably in Washington Co., Virginia about 6 April 1871. In 1880 he and Nancy were living in New Salem, McDonough Co., Illinois and sometimes between September 1885 and August 1886 they moved to Nebraska, possibly directly to Webster County. Most of the records I have found for them in Webster County show the name changed to Richison. They were defnitely in the county in 1890-1891. James died between 1910 and 1920. They were living at Bladen or that general area. I need to know when he died and where he is buried. Nancy lived to past 1930. Their known children:

1. Robert Andrew Richison - b. 29 Sept 1875 Illinois; married Anna Lutz; was living at Bladen in 1947
2. Jonas H. Richison - b. Nov. 1877 Illinois - shown as a soldier on the 1900 US Census in parents' household (Webster County); no further information
3. Mary J. Richison - b. Feb 1880 Illinois
4. Eliza "Lizzie" Richison - b. April 1882 Illinois
5. James Walker Richison - b. Sept 1885 Illinois - married Ethel Clausen; in 1930 was living at Eads, Kiowa Co., Colorado
6. Minnie Richison - b. Aug 1886 in Nebraska
