John Richey, of Pennsylvania, married Cynthia Mallerson, and settled in
St. Charles County in 1818.  He built a small log cabin and covered it
with linden bark, and sixteen persons lived in that one little cabin.
One summer they were all sick of fever, and not one well enough to wait
on the others.  The names of Mr. Richey's children were: Rosana, Emma,
John, Thomas and Cynthia.
