Note:
Richard wasn't listed with his mother, Julia White and siblings on the 1880 census in Chariton County Missouri. There is a Richard White about 12 years old who was a hired hand to a Daniel White. They were  living not to far from Julia White.

Daniel White was the brother of Frances (White) Blakey. Frances was the former slave owner of Julia White and her children. During slavery, Richard may have ended up with Daniel and stayed on with him as a hired hand. Richard was listed on the 1900, 1910, 1920, 1930 and 1940 censuses.
