What I did find out was that Richard owned @200 acres of land in Montgomery Co. around 1840. Stanly Co. was formed from parts of Montgomery Co. in 1841 where Richard owned his property. Most of his property was sold 1841/1842 due to unpaid taxes on the land. Wasn't able to located the deed to the land because of a fire that destroyed some records in 1843, so I don't know how be acquired the property. It seems that he was a "free" man also as early as 1842 because he was allowed to (licensed) to keep a gun, and in 1850 he was permitted to carry a rifle. Just thought you might be interested in some of this info, take care. Q.D.
