Richmond.[262] P. D. R.Abigail Richmond, wife of John Remington, was a daughter of Captain Edward Richmond and his first wife, Abigail Davis. Edward Richmond was born in England about 1632, and died in Little Compton, R. I., November, 1696. He was general solicitor, attorney general, deputy to the Rhode Island assembly, lieutenant in King Philip's war, and, May 20, 1690, captain. His second wife was Amey Bull, daughter of Henry Bull. Captain Edward Richmond was a son of John Richmond of Taunton, Mass., born 1594, died March 20, 1664. The name of his wife is undiscovered, but his children were: John, Edward, Mary and Sarah. He has been identified with John Richmond, an officer of distinction during the civil wars in England, son of Henry Richmond alias Webb, representative of a family long settled in Wiltshire, whose great-grandfather married Alice Webb, an heiress, quartered her arms and assumed her name. The line goes back to Roaldus Musard de Richmond of the time of the Conqueror. There is no record of John Richmond in New England from 1643 to 1655.

Abigail Davis was a daughter of William Davis of Boston, who died in 1664. Mary Davis, his widow, married, second, John Cowdall. In 1657 Abigail sent a petition to the Rhode Island assembly, as a result of which her marriage to Richard Ussell was annulled, because her parents forced her to do it. Thus she was enabled to marry Edward Richmond, the man of her choice. B. H. D.
