The following is a copy of the Richards Family Bible records, probably started by Minnie DeMumbrie, as you can see the handwriting for her death is different from the rest. Although Jerome, Jr’s death date is written in a completely different handwriting, too. One interesting thing to note is that though all previous records of the name “DeMumbrie” were spelled with the first “M” capitalized, she did not capitalize that letter. Also, I’m not sure that George Washington Richards was listed in any other posts along with her other children. I actually was not aware of him until after I wrote the post about her. AND there seems to be a debate about Jerome, Sr and Jerome, Jr’s middle name. It is either Edward, Edmund or Edmond. I’m not really certain which, since different records have it listed all three ways and the Bible records below have it as Ed, Eddie or E.
Photos of the family members follow the Bible pages, with the exception of George Washington Richards and Bluford Napoleon Richards (I do not yet have photos of them, but, please, feel free to send some to me!).
