Title	Mrs. Elizabeth Richardson
Date	1873
Description	Mrs. Elizabeth Richardson, pictured here circa 1873, was the wife of dairyman John Frink Richardson. Born in England in October 1817; she came to the United States in 1841 and settled in Sacramento in 1849. Upon arriving in the young city, she took up the operation of a hotel with her then husband, Jonathan Harold. After the death of both Harold and a following husband, she met and married John Frink Richardson in 1878. The couple settled into a home at Sutter Terrace, their residence for the next 30 years. Having died in June 1914 at the age of 97 – 60 of those years spent in Sacramento – she fell just short of realizing one her life’s cherished hopes, living to be 100.
