Sources

1 Illogan Parish Registers (BTs), Marriages. Elizabeth's family name is not shown in the Register. However, an analysis of the Richards families of the relevant period in Illogan indicates that Nicholas was the only one with a wife named Elizabeth. Most of the children were christened in Gwinear, where Nicholas originally came from. What is also of interest here is that Elizabeth's mother refers in her Will to a tenement called 'Metheres Noweth' in Illogan, and Elizabeth's son, Nicholas Richards, also refers to his leasehold estate called 'Meveris Nowath'.
