There was Terah and I think now he came into Pike County, His brother George Richards, Jr. came to Carroll County, Ga. and Thomas Cupples, my ancestor, and his brother Stephen went to North Florida from Greene County, Ga. but before that they were in Franklin County, N.C. --Lots of John Richards out there, I know there was a whole NOTHER set of Richards that came into Henry and Barbour County, Alabama......Put out questionaires in all these counties and see if you can make contact with someone that knows your folks....I was born and raised in North Florida and my Richards went in there before it was a state......Lots of Richards!
