    Richard Breeden served in the Revolutionary War according to "MAGAZINE OF THE JEFFERSON COUNTY, WEST VIRGINIA HISTORICAL SOCIETY" Vol. 4, Dec. 1938 article entitled "Revolutionary Soldiers of Jefferson County, W. Virginia". On page 39, it ssen, Richard, Pvt. with George Rogers Clark, 1778, lived near Harper's Ferry".
    From a book of Muster and Pay Rolls "GEORGE ROGERS CLARK AND HIS MEN MILITARY RECORDS, 1778-1784", by Margery Heberling Harding, page 47, says the following: Muster Roll of Capt. Edward Worthington's Company of the Illinois Reg.., 11 Apr. 17ohov 1781, Richd Breeden, Enlisted 18 Nov. 1780. The enlistment date corresponds with the date of his recruitment mentioned in "VIRGINIAN IN THE REVOLUTION", but on pages 52,141,142 and 154 it states that Richard enlisted in 1779. In fact o n page 52, he received pay, commencing on 18 Nov. 1779 and
    ending 30 Nov 1781, for the period of 2 yr. 12 days. His term of enlistment was "3 years or war" (page 141 ). On pages 154 and 155, dated 1 Sept. 1782 to 31 Jan. 1783, one a Pay Roll and the other a
    Muster Roll, it lists a Richard Bredin/Breden as absent without leave. Richard Breeden made 6 2/3 dollars or 2 ?U1 4 shillings in Virginia currency per month as a Private (page 144). Although he was entitled to his pay monthly, it was more commo n than not for him to wait for months, and apparently in one instance he waited over two years for pay (page 52). Money and food were scarce at times for many of the American soldiers during the Revolution, and many times resulted in desertions , and sometimes even mutiny. It was probably worse on the frontier, where Richard was stationed. One fort in which he was stationed was in western Kentucky, near were Illinois, Missouri and Kentucky meet, in present day Ballard County, Ky. Su pplies had came as far away as French controlled New Orleans, via the Mississippi River. This fort was abandoned and they relocated to Ft. Nelson. Ft. Nelson was located at or near present day Louisville, Ky., not all that far from where he ev entually settled after the war.
    Richard Breeding name appears on two pay roll voucher from the NATIONAL ARCHIVES, Washington DC. One states: "Richard Breeding, soldier (Revolutionary War), Clark's Illinois Regiment., Virginia
    State Troops., Pay Roll for soldiers serving in the Illinois Department for their pay up to the last of December, 1781, Amount 50 pounds 16 shilling, Roll not dated. The other states: "Richard Breeding, Clark's Illinois Regiment., Virginia Stat e Troops., Pay Roll of the Illinois Regiment, From Jan. 1, 1782 to Nov. 18 1782, Amount 21 pounds 4 shillings, Roll not dated".

    Biography of Richard G. Breeden - McDonough County, Illinois, History of Hancock, McDonough and Henderson Counties, Illinois, 1894
    Portrait and Biographical Recordpages 295 and 296
    "came of an old Virginia family, which was founded in America
    by Scotch ancestors, who left that land and took up their residence in the
    New World prior to the Revolution. There were three brothers who made the
    voyage, and all served in the Colonial army during the struggle for
    independence. One of the number was killed, and the ancestor of our
    subject, at the close of the war, migrated to Kentucky. A love for hunting
    and fishing has always been manifest in the Breeden family, and it is
    supposed that it indicates a trace of Indian blood."

    HISTORY of JACKSON COUNTY, IOWA by Hon. James W. Ellis, Volume 1, Illustrated, Chicago, S. J. Clarke Publishing Co, 1910, pages 364 and 365.
    Sketch of the Life of B. B. Breeden
    At about the beginning of the year 1700, three brothers, Henry, Job and Richard Breeden, came from England and settled in Virginia and married.
    Job remained there all his life, living on the old homestead. Henry and Richard, with their families, went west after a time, and settled in Lawrence county, Kentucky. They each took up homesteads. During an encounter with the Indians, Henry an d his two sons were killed, but not until Henry had killed six Indians before he fell.
    Richard married Fannie Fairchild, a Virginian woman. To them were born eleven children, seven boys and four girls, the seventh child being Richard Jr., who was born in 1778 in what is now known as Louisville, Kentucky.
    The children scattered to various parts of the country. Paul went to Louisiana; James, William and Richard, Jr., to Indiana. Richard settled in Monroe county, Indiana, in about the year 1818. He was married to Miss Lucretia Curl before he left K entucky. To them were born fourteen children, thirteen of whom lived to be grown. We give the names in order of their ages: Fielding, born 1810; Millie, Richard O., William, Polly, Dudley, Blan Ballard, Susan, Lucretia, Jane, Berryman, Calvin, J ames and Amanda. The first six were born in Lawrence county, Kentucky, while Ballard and Susan were born in Monroe county, Indiana. The whole family afterward moved to Putnam county, Indiana, where Jane and Berryman were born, the family afterwa rd going to Edgar county, Illinois, where the rest of the children were born.
    In the year 1838 the family moved to Iowa. Millie married in Illinois and moved back to Kentucky, but afterwards returned to Illinois. The family settled in Jackson county, Iowa, and each of the sons took up claims for themselves. Fielding and W illiam were also married in Illinois. The remainder married in Jackson county.
    In about the year 1850, Fielding, Calvin, Ballard and William went to California to make their fortunes in digging gold. Berryman joined them in 1852. They were three years returning via Pacific Ocean, Isthmus of Panama, Atlantic Ocean, and Ne w York city, thence overland to Iowa. They failed to realize their expectations of making their fortunes.
    Nearly two years after their return, Ballard married Miss Mary Jane Furnish. To them were born three children--Sophronia, DeSoto and Otto. She died on the 12th day of February 1861. On the 5th day of September, he married Miss Mary Ann Campbell . To them were born seven children: Frances J., Dora L., Willaims S., Lillie V., Arizona M., Millie L. and Clarence Bird. Williams S. and Millie L. died in infancy.
    Richard Breeden, father of B. B. Breeden, died in September 1872; Lucretia, his mother, died in February, 1874, at the ages of eighty-four and eighty-three years, respectively. Fielding moved to Keokuk county, Iowa, where he died in 1887. Willia ms returned to Illinois and lived in Hancock county where he died in 1896. Berryman never returned from California. He died in the year 1875 or 1876. Owen was killed by a falling tree while hunting, on the 12th day of February, 1868. Millie die d in Illinois in 1865. Polly died in Kansas in 1878. Dudley died in Jackson county, Iowa, in 1842. Susan died in Jackson county in 1845. Lucretia died in infancy in Putnam county, Indiana. Jane now lives in Mariposa county, California. Calvin di ed very suddenly on October 31st, 1899. James lives near Clear Lake, Wisconsin, and Amanda in Jackson county.
    Mr. Breeden died on June 7, 1906, being eighty-six years, five months and nineteen days old. His life was long and useful and he was loved and honored by all his family and highly respected by all who knew him.

    Richard married Frances Chiles about 1774 in VA. Frances (daughter of Paul Chiles and Anne Rowland) was born about 1754 in VA; died about 1829-1830 in Shelby County, KY. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 5.  Frances Chiles was born about 1754 in VA (daughter of Paul Chiles and Anne Rowland); died about 1829-1830 in Shelby County, KY.

    Notes:

    Frances Chiles Breeden’s birth date was estimated, figuring she may have been around 20 when she married Richard Breeden (20 was the average age of women to marry during that time). Since their first known child, William Breeden was born in 1775, they may have been married approximately a year before. Her death date was estimated from the fact that she on the tax list of Shelby County, KY from 1799 to 1829. Francis did not appear in the 1830 tax list, this may indicate she was deceased by that time.

    Thanks to Sharon Smith Logan for her detective work on her discovering Frances' true maiden name in her words: "Frances' maiden name is not Fairchild as family tradition states (I was led to believe the same thing). Her maiden name was Chiles . I can prove this through the will of Paul Chiles who left his daughter Frances Chiles 200 acres on Mayo River in his will dated 2 September 1761, Halifax County Virginia. In 1773, Richard Breeding and his wife Frances sold 130 acres to Joh n Stanton in Henry County, VA (Henry was created from Halifax). Also, of note, Paul Chiles parents were Henry Chiles and Ann Rowland".

They each took up homesteads. During an encounter with the Indians, Henry an d his two sons were killed, but not until Henry had killed six Indians before he fell.
    Richard married Fannie Fairchild, a Virginian woman. To them were born eleven children, seven boys and four girls, the seventh child being Richard Jr., who was born in 1778 in what is now known as Louisville, Kentucky.
    The children scattered to various parts of the country. Paul went to Louisiana; James, William and Richard, Jr., to Indiana. Richard settled in Monroe county, Indiana, in about the year 1818. He was married to Miss Lucretia Curl before he left K entucky. To them were born fourteen children, thirteen of whom lived to be grown. We give the names in order of their ages: Fielding, born 1810; Millie, Richard O., William, Polly, Dudley, Blan Ballard, Susan, Lucretia, Jane, Berryman, Calvin, J ames and Amanda. The first six were born in Lawrence county, Kentucky, while Ballard and Susan were born in Monroe county, Indiana. The whole family afterward moved to Putnam county, Indiana, where Jane and Berryman were born, the family afterwa rd going to Edgar county, Illinois, where the rest of the children were born.
    In the year 1838 the family moved to Iowa. Millie married in Illinois and moved back to Kentucky, but afterwards returned to Illinois. The family settled in Jackson county, Iowa, and each of the sons took up claims for themselves. Fielding and W illiam were also married in Illinois. The remainder married in Jackson county.
    In about the year 1850, Fielding, Calvin, Ballard and William went to California to make their fortunes in digging gold. Berryman joined them in 1852. They were three years returning via Pacific Ocean, Isthmus of Panama, Atlantic Ocean, and Ne w York city, thence overland to Iowa. They failed to realize their expectations of making their fortunes.
    Nearly two years after their return, Ballard married Miss Mary Jane Furnish. To them were born three children--Sophronia, DeSoto and Otto. She died on the 12th day of February 1861. On the 5th day of September, he married Miss Mary Ann Campbell . To them were born seven children: Frances J., Dora L., Willaims S., Lillie V., Arizona M., Millie L. and Clarence Bird. Williams S. and Millie L. died in infancy.
    Richard Breeden, father of B. B. Breeden, died in September 1872; Lucretia, his mother, died in February, 1874, at the ages of eighty-four and eighty-three years, respectively. Fielding moved to Keokuk county, Iowa, where he died in 1887. Willia ms returned to Illinois and lived in Hancock county where he died in 1896. Berryman never returned from California. He died in the year 1875 or 1876. Owen was killed by a falling tree while hunting, on the 12th day of February, 1868. Millie die d in Illinois in 1865. Polly died in Kansas in 1878. Dudley died in Jackson county, Iowa, in 1842. Susan died in Jackson county in 1845. Lucretia died in infancy in Putnam county, Indiana. Jane now lives in Mariposa county, California. Calvin di ed very suddenly on October 31st, 1899. James lives near Clear Lake, Wisconsin, and Amanda in Jackson county.
    Mr. Breeden died on June 7, 1906, being eighty-six years, five months and nineteen days old. His life was long and useful and he was loved and honored by all his family and highly respected by all who knew him.
