The parents died on board ship and the five children were sent to various places to be cared for. Percifor was sent to live with a Baptist preacher's family at Uniontown, Pennsylvania. He migrated to Perry County, Ohio, ca. 1837. He married Elizabeth Mechling (1838-1867) in Perry County in 1838 and settled in Logan County, Ohio. They had eleven children, 1839-1860. The family migrated to Saline County, Missouri, in 1860, and to Shelby County, Illinois, in 1861. Piercifor and Elizabeth Richard are buried in the Richland Cemetery, Shelby County, Illinois.
