Notes:  Milo C. Richardson was born 16 Nov 1901 in Fillmore County, Minnesota.  His parents were Richard O. Richardson and Ida Dahl.* He had at least three brothers.  The first was Orin Chester Richardson, born 1 Oct 1900, in Fillmore County, Minnesota.  Orin is found in Source 1492, the Minnesota, Births and Christenings Index, 1840 - 1980, and nothing more is known about him.  The others were Carman Richardson, born about 1905, and Ralph Richardson, born about 1908.  These last two are found in the 1910, 1920, and 1930 U.S. census records, and the 1925 North Dakota State census record.

In the 1910 U.S. census, Milo, age 8, was living with his parents and two younger brothers in Hettinger Village, Adams, North Dakota.  His brother Carman was 8 years, and brother Ralp, 2 years.  His father was a grain miller.

In the 1920 U.S. census, and the 1925 North Dakota State census, his family was still in Hettinger, but the Village had become a City.  In the 1930 U.S. census his father was now a dealer of farm implements.  Milo, now 28 and still single, was a salesman of farm machinery.  His brother Carman was no longer at home, and brother Ralph, age 22, was not working.

Milo married Vida M. Noble around 1933.  Their daughter was born about 1934.  In the 1940 U.S. census, Milo, age 38, had completed 4 years of college.  He was a manager at a coal company, and had earned $1,800. in the previous year.  He, Vida, and their daughter, age 7, were living with his parents in Hettinger, Adams, North Dakota.  The couple had one additional child at a later date.

At some point in time, Milo and Vida lived at 503 6th Ave. N., Hettinger.  He was a member of Masonic Lodge AF & AM 93.  Milo died 3 Jan 1974.  His last residence was Hettinger, Adams, North Dakota.  The funeral services were held at the Walby Funeral Chapel on 5 Jan 1974, the Rev. Lawrence Juell officiating.  Honorary casket bearers were his lodge brothers and "all his friends".  He is buried in the Hettinger Cemetery in Hettinger, Adams, North Dakota.

*The Minnesota Birth and Christenings Index gives his mother's name as Littie Keilcher, a most improbable name.  Census records show first name of mother is Ida.  Ancestry.com links Ida with the maiden name Dahl.
