Richard Waring was born on 19th April, 1834 at Mapplewell, Yorkshire to parents John and Hannah Waring and was Christened on 25th October 1840 at All Saints Church, Darton Yorkshire[1].
The 1861 England Census, detailed below, shows Richard as a lodger with a family called Shearwood in Staincross, Darton, Yorkshire. Richard is working as a coal miner and, although to date no documentary evidence has been found to support this, it looks like he is lodging with his sister Ann and family. (Mapplewell, Staincross and Darton, Yorkshire are very close to each other)
Richard married Rachel Spencer, a widow, on 29 April 1862 at All Saints, Darton, Yorkshire[2]. Rachel was Richard's first cousin. Her maiden name was Rachel Waring and and she had a son, John, when she was single.
The 1871 England Census, detailed below, shows Richard and Rachel living in Straincross, Yorkshire with John Waring, Rachel's son and Richard's stepson. John was actually Richard's stepson (See profile for Rachel Spencer).
The death of a George Richard Frederick Waring, aged 72 is recorded in the Barnsley registration district in 1906[3] and his subsequent burial is recorded on January 1st 1907 at All Saints church, Darton, Yorkshire. It is unclear whether this is Richard Waring as no other records appear to include the additional first names. However, the location and dates would be appropriate for Richard Waring[4]
