Hello all,
There is an advertisement in the Richmond Times-Dispatch newspaper
today.
It lists 119 men who appeared on the oldest page of one of the old
newspapers of Richmond,
THE DAILY DISPATCH.
Now the current Richmond Times-Dispatch is looking for any descendnats
of
these men whom I will list below.
They plan to highlight some representative descendnats to include in the
150th anniversary edition of the
R T-D.
Now there are no dates of birth or ages listed just the names, that is
all
the paper gave.
You can go by the fact that they must have all been grown men by 1850.
Also when you contact the reporters, just tell them you are writing
about
the ad.
Contact these reporters by JULY 15th!
Gregory GILLIGAN at (804) 649-6379
or ggilligan(a)timesdispatch.com
Jerry LINDQUIST at (804) 649-6323
or JLINDQUIST(a)timesdispatch.com
Please though know for sure you are a descendant. I am sure they only
want
people who are positive.
Here are the men from the 1850 paper:
