Righter-Keech Records

Righter -Keech Records PTI HE following records supplement "A Study of the Righter-Reiter Families of Philadelphia County in the Eighteenth Century" by Mildred Goshow which appeared in Volume XXI (No. 1, 1958), 3 - 44, of this Magazine. Specifically they are records of the children and some of the grandchildren of No. 9 Bartholomew Righter, Jr., for whom see pages 27 - 29 of the above volume, and nicely substantiate Miss Goshow's deductions. Xerox copies of the originals, with other records, were sent to Miss Goshow by Richard B. Righter, 5 540 Fair Oaks Street, Pittsburgh, Pa., 15217, in November, 1970. The originals, he stated, were on loose pieces of paper found in a nineteenth century Bible which had belonged to Mr. Righter's grandfather who, he believes, was a descendant of 15. Anthony Righter (see page 36 of the above volume).
