Ruth Crawley Champion's book, surprisingly, does have Richard P. Champion and
Keziah, but I only found her by looking up Cecelia--there were too many
listings for Richard. Anyway, the reason I didn't find Keziah under BUDD is
that Ruth's book gives her last name as BEEDE. (Which doesn't mean it
wasn't Budd, partularly if we're dealing with interpreting handwriting.)
Anyway, page 70 says Richard Champion, s/o Mark Townsend Champion and Sarah
Steelman, was born 5 Feb 1829 and died 3 Jan 1913. He married Keziah 30
April 1850. No parents for her listed, but says she was born 3 Oct 1838.
Children of Richard & Keziah:
Mark T Champion Jr., 1855-1884 m. Elizabeth Mason.
Cecelia M. Champion, 1861-1881 m. Richard Greenley.
Oliver B. Champion, 1865-1915 m. Mabel Hand.
Richard's lineage down from emigrant Thomas Champion is: Thomas - John -
Thomas - John - Nathaniel - Nathaniel - Mark.
An interesting tidbit concerning Keziah's surname might be to know what
Oliver's middle name was.
Happy hunting.
