Suggested edit: I don't think it's not possible that his mother would have Richard at age 50. It would have been super rare. I'm think that he was born when she was in her early 40's. He could possibly been born in 1760. In his father's Will he was one of the executors and you had to be 18 and older. Shows him around age 12 in 1783 when the Will was written out.
