Biography
Richard was born in Gaithersburg, Maryland. His mother and her sister went there to have their children. They later returned to their home in Gloversville, NY. Richard's father, Robert found work with General Electric in Bridgeport, CT., so we moved there in 1935. 2 brothers and 2 sisters were born in the Bridgeport Hospital.
Richard graduated from the Warren Harding High School in Bridgeport, Connecticut in 1952. He went to the Ohio State University where he received a BS in Business in 1956. He was first employed at the Chevrolet Division of GMC in Toledo, Ohio,
Richard enlisted in the Army Reserve in 1957. His unit was called to active duty in 1961 because of the Cuban Missile threat, He served as first Sergeant in his Financial Disbursement Unit. He completed his military enlistment as a Sgt First Class in 1963.
Richard married Carole Dreyer in 1959. They have 2 sons and a daughter.
Richard retired from the Aratex Uniform Company in 1993 after 22 years with the company. He was their data processing manager, office manager and purchasing agent.
His mother had done some genealogy work on her Harrington family on his father's Hayes family. Richard received all of her material when she died in 1983. The Harrington line went back to the Nellis family that was in 1710 Palatine Migragration. 2 volumes of the Nellis/Nelles family history were published. Richard has a website that has all of the 51,300 names in the book. The address is Freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry/~nelliswebsite.
The "Genealogy of the Fort Family in New York State" by Jerome H. Fort gave him a connection to persons from France and the Netherlands. Richard worked on these lines until about 2008. He then found that he had a connection to many persons who were on the Mayflower. Richard has been approved for membership in the Society of Mayflower Descendants for Richard Warren, William Mullins and his daughter Priscilla and her husband John Alden. His website for these people contains over 86,100 names.
Richard has a number of connections that he would like to make. The primary one is to find out who the parents of his 3rd great grandfather, David Hays were. They would have been born in Northern Ireland around 1770.

Glad to see that we are both tied to the Howlands. But I am even more interested in our more recent Walrath connections. I look forward to continuing my own research in the family. I hope to show my family at the 150th Walrath Reunion even more than I have found myself using WikiTree, and your name will definitely come up!
All of the Walraths that are in my Nellis Books may be found at http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~nelliswebsite/genealogy/

We realise the time has come to dissolve the UK Project in favour of the individual country projects of England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland.
We are checking in with all UK badge holders to find out which country project(s) you would like to be in so you can collaborate with other members, have the opportunity to select which team(s) you would like to join, and so we can ensure you have all the correct badges.
Please respond by PM to let us know which country project(s) you would like to be in. Please dont assume we know. We are effectively starting from scratch to make sure no one falls through the cracks.
Once you have done this, the Coordinator for Membership in the relevant country project(s) will be in touch to help get you situated.
Many thanks,
Susie
