| Note | Richardson Best is shown as age 10 and with his parents and siblings in the 1851 census of Aghalee in County Antrim. He is said to be going to school. Pages pertinent to the Best family in the Irish census of 1861 do not appear to have survived. Richardson is next found in the 1871 census in Collingwood Township in Ontario's Grey County. He and his wife, Eleanor Susanna, are with his brother Joseph. Richardson and Eleanor, to this point, have not been found later. |
