Richards, William ~ buried at Richland Church, five miles north of Olney.

[ "I have a bunch of early family buried in Richland Cemetery, Madison township, about 5 miles south of Olney (between Calhoun and Rt 130). I believe Rev War soldier William Richards is buried in this (abandoned Presbyterian church cemetery) Richland Cemetery, with a new stone ... not where the 1912 author placed it, at 6 miles north ... I was out there last fall cutting back the trees and saw the Revolutionary War soldier's stone. Just in case some descendants are looking." --Julie Berry, 2025 Apr 14 ]
