Richard was born to James and Sarah Harriet ELLIS in their home at 2 Pounds Passage , Johns Row, City Road, ST Luke , London UK.
His father James was a Shoemaker and his mother was Sarah Harriet nee Jardine of Scots and French Heugenot background.She registered him 2 Feb 1842.
Richard was 1 of 13 known children of his parents- all except 1 reached adulthood , so his parents must have been good at their job !
My GGGrandfather was one of his older siblings..... they stayed in contact throughout the decades of living apart.
Family photos of them together c1910 in London confirm this
