At this time I unfortunately do not have listed in my records Pat's parents names- however I can contact someone who has that.
By 1880 there were 3-4 Rickman families in Newton, KS- all with kids born in Ohio and the heads of households born in TN There were a few other Rickman's with the same POB in Lawerence, KS- who eventually ended up in Newton. Newton is an extremely small town.

I will find out Pat's parents and post. The names for the KS rickmans are quite interesting- Wales, Ocran, Alysur. There was a Joseph Rickman in Newton born in 1822 from TN. Could be Pat's father-however I need to check on that.

Thanks!
