He married Ann, a labourer's child from Pangbourne in 1880, & transferred to Pewsey (Feb 1884), as a Signalman, becoming a Porter at Farringdon in Nov 1888 after which he resigned. He earned 16/- a week when he first joined the Railway and this rose to 21/- as a Signalman in Pewsey, falling to 18/- as a Porter when he resigned. After that he worked as a Coal Merchant, first near the railway in Bartholomew St, where his sons helped with the business as yard assistants and haulier. In 1901 he had a fruit and coal merchant's shop at 6, Bartholomew St . In 1911 the family lived at 19, Craven St. Ann had worked in West-on-Thames, Kingston as a Ladies Maid to the wife of a Law Publisher before marriage. She bore Richard 4 sons and 3 daughters.
