Name, age and birth date from Logan Co., OH 1900 census.

A copy of a page of a bible belonging to Martha Derr, Davis Derr's wife, that I received from Walt Derr had a list of children born to Martha and Davis. There were also birth dates. On the bottome of the page, very lightly written was "Christopher Marion Warner Richards was born Dec. the 21 1886". Very hard to read the date.

Birth info from Kathy Herrick's family tree on ancestry.com.

I found his death certificate on familysearchlabs.org. His name was shown as Christopher W. Richards, occupation was painter. He died at University Hospital in Columbus but his usual residence was Marion, Marion Co., OH. His wife was the informant (Lenore Ross Richards was his wife's name and the informant's signature was Mrs. C. W. Richards) and she may have been confused because she listed his father's name as Christopher Richards and her mother's name (Mary Jane Ross) I assume, as his mother's maiden name. Kathy Herrick's tree shows Warner's spouse as Druzilla so I need to ask her if that's a first wife. I don't know where this Lenore comes i

His WW1 registration card shows he's married with one child but in the 1920 census he is living with his wife, Druzilla, in Richland Twp., Logan Co., OH and there is no child listed.

WW2 draft registration, signed April of 1942, showed wife as Lenore Richards and living in Marion, OH.

Druzilla is married to William Riddie by 1930 and has her children living with her and Wm.
