  We know from the report above that Archibald's mother was Mary Elizabeth Hatchett.  In fact, her maiden name was Archibald's middle name, as reported by Archibald's son George.  Lucy is likely a sister of Richard, named after their mother, Lucy Osborne Thweatt.
  
  On the same page is F R Gregory, age 434, who is likely Richard's brother.
