They made their home on Keg Creek where seven children were born to them, five of whom died in infancy.
In the year 1849 like a tidal wave the gold rush to California spread over the country causing people to leave everything and go westward. By the year 1851 this gold fever had struck the little settlement of Keg Creek, Iowa. Shadrach and Lavina Richardson felt the urge to try their fortune in this new land and so they made the necessary arrangements to start this long and dangerous journey. Taking what belongings they could carry in a prairie schooner and their two little boys, Shadrach Montgomery and William Wilshire, they joined the Truman Tryon company and started the long and hard journey across the great unknown country to the dream land of the west.
After suffering many hardships they arrived in Payson, Utah, in the fall of 1852, weary and foot-sore, but hoping to go on to California. They rested while visiting their brother and sister, Benjamin Franklin and Polly Richardson Stewart. But the trials and hardships incident to their journey across the plains proved too much for Lavina and she passed away in December, 1852, leaving her two little boys and their father to the mercy and kindness of relatives and the good people of Payson. Lavina was one of the first to be buried in the Payson cemetery.
In 1857, he was baptized and confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and in 1860, he married a widow by the name of Sarah Haskel Aimes. Four children were born to them, three boys and one girl, Thomas, David, Lavina and Richard. In 1868 he was again left alone with a little family to take care of when Sarah died. He was both father and mother to them, always patient and kind and understanding." (Here again, one can read between the lines and see the great character displayed by these people as they underwent such hardships, sorrows, and pain.)
"In 1869, Shadrach (Jr.) homesteaded a piece of ground in Benjamin on which he built a log cabin near a bubbling spring of very warm water. (This was later to become the Arrowhead swimming resort). When the home was built he moved his little family in. This was a home for them until they were all old enough to go out and establish homes for themselves. Grandfather had the ability to make and hold friends among the young people as well as the old, and his home was the gathering place for all the young people of the community. He died at the home of his oldest son Shadrach Montgomery Richardson, June 18, 1890, at the age of 74 years." (Benjamin, Utah)
