DEATH: +++++Saturday, May 30, 1891+++++

 

DEATH: Death of Mr. Richardson.

  It is with extreme regret that we announce the death of Mr. Ambrose C. Richardson which occurred at St. Josephs Hospital in that City of Baltimore on Wednesday.  Mr. Richardson was the son of Joseph Richardson a sea Captain of Denton Caroline County Md., a man of high social standing and character.  Ambrose was one of four sons, viz., Eugene DeK, Frank, Eugene, and Constantine who after the death of his father removed to this county with his mother about 1850, his elder brother Eugene having married Miss Emma Pearce daughter of Dr.

George R. Pearce a prominent citizen and large land owner in Sassafras Neck, and a brother of Capt. Matthew C. Pearce who married a sister of the late Col. John C. Groome.  They located on a farm near Reybold's Wharf, and where Mrs. Richardson the mother died about 1860.  His elder brother Eugene as well as his wife having died, Ambrose remained unmarried on the Pearce Estate many years.

During the war Mr. Richardson who had been a life long Democrat, sympathized with the South, and to avoid the draft, in company with E. S. Jones, Andrew J. Pennington, William M. Knight, and Frank M. Cruikshank left the country and went to Nassau New Providence.  All returned in safety except Mr. Cruikshank who died on ship board in New York Harbor of the yellow fever, and Ambrose Richardson who

being down with the same infectious disease was finally nursed to recovery.  Returning to Cecil county he resumed his life as a farmer and finally married the widow of Dr. Pearce, the mother of his late brother's wife.  His wife dying about 1882, not long afterwards he removed to Elkton, and finally while residing here he made his home with Mr. and Mrs. H. M. Nicols, from whose house he went to visit James T. Robinson of Sassafras Neck, where he seriously hurt himself

by a fall down stairs, and from whose house he went to Baltimore some weeks ago.  We knew Ambrose Richardson well personally.  He was a high toned gentleman always, and under all circumstances, either of prosperity or adversity.  We sincerely regret his death, and put on record this sincere tribute of respect to his memory.

Notes for OF BALTIMORE BENJAMIN WHITELY:

[030402.ged]

 

Of the early families in Caroline County, MD, Whiteley was probably the best known.  It seems that William Whiteley came to this county from Delaware and located just west of the state line, though likely owning real estate in Delaware.  There is a record in the Caroline County's Clerks Office that William Whiteley purchased over 1,000 acres of land in a body shortly after the Revolutionary War.

 

When the state law as to schools was changed in 1868 and trustees were appointed by the School Commissioners, provision was made for Whitelysburg.  This name of the school was continued until 1883 when Whitelysburg was discontinued as a public school.  About this time Benjamin Whiteley recognizing the great need for a school nearer than Lowe's built a school house and planned a school for the children of this section.  Late in 1885, the School Board again decided to pay the teacher and thus Whiteley's was again open, remaining so until about 1906 when the very small attendance necessitated the school's being again closed.

        Besides giving money towards the school, Mr. Whiteley always sent a Christmas box to the school.  This box contained a gift for each pupil and for the teacher.  He also wrote a long letter each year to be read to the children.

        Thus did Benjamin Whiteley, the worthy son of his highly representative father, keep alive his interest in childhood though advanced in years.  Mr. Whiteley died in Catonsville a few years ago at the age of nearly one hundred years.
