    A death record matching Richard is found in Oregon, but the name is Richard L Lewis.  Family genealogies identify this as the death record of Richard D Lewis of the censuses.  Some genealogies name him Richard Dempsey Lewis, matching the 1880 census record for Richard D Lewis.  All other censuses and records have only Richard Lewis.
