Hi,

Richard was the first husband of my GG Grandmother Sarah Sims, she remarried Thomas Balcombe at Swansea in December 1864.
I got a lot of information about Sarah and Thomas from the Glamorgan Sping Bay Historical Society but not a lot about Richard, only that he drowned trying to cross a flooded river.
I will have look and see if I have any more on him.
