Richard Duckett
1831 - 1897

Richard Duckett, son of John Duckett and Elizabeth Ellen Wetherall in Liverpool, Lancashire, England. He was a professional hair dresser/barber, as was his father; part of five known consecutive generations in this profession, possibly more.

According the the 1841 England Census, he may have been born a twin to sister, Margaret; or they were just born within the same year.

Richard married Sarah Jane McKay, daughter of John McKay (mother unknown), a mariner by trade, on 7 October 1850, in the Church of St. Silas in Liverpool. She must have passed away less than five years later, as his marriage license to Lydia Porter on 30 July 1855 shows him as a widower. Lydia was the daughter of Thomas Porter, a bricklayer, and Sarah Tyrer.

Their children:
John Duckett
Thomas Hugh Duckett
James Duckett (twin)
Richard Duckett (twin)
Alice Thornton Duckett Forshaw

Records show he passed away in either April, May or June 1897. Burial is unknown at the time of this writing.
