Richard was the son of Jacob D. Large and Elizabeth "Betsy" Dinnel, both Tennessee natives. Richard was born in Illinois. He enlisted in the fall of 1861, in Company A of the 10th Illinois Cavalry for three years. He re-enlisted as a veteran January, 1864 and was promoted to Full Quarter Master Sergeant, serving to the end of the rebellion. He was honorably discharged November, 1865, at San Antonio, Texas.
On March 10, 1964 he married Hannah Frazee, daughter of Henry Frazee and Sarah VanPatten. Following the war, Richard and Hannah moved to Wilson County, Kansas where they raised a family. They had 5 children: Henry, Edward, Rosa, George and Fred. Only Fred outlived his parents. Son Henry died at the age of 20 in 1887; Babies Rosa and George died as infants.
In 1890 Richard applied for a Civil War pension based on his being an "invalid." In 1892 they moved to Dayton, Columbia County, Washington. Hannah's Uncle, John Coop VanPatten, and her Aunt, Carolyn VanPatten Lyman, had already lived in Columbia County with their families for a decade.
He died in 1910 and Hannah died 14 years later. They are both buried at the Dayton City Cemetery with Fred and his wife.
