  • Biography
    Article from "The History of North Dakota" by Clement A. Lounsberry,
    Volume III - Page 73, Published by the S.J. Clarke Publishing Company, Chicago, 1917

    Rodolph Ray Richard, publisher of the Golden Valley Progress of Beach, was born at Little Falls, Minnesota, April 12, 1888, a son of Theodore Richard whose birth occurred in St. John's, province of Quebec, whence he came to the United States the family home being established near Little Falls, Minnesota, where they cast their lot with pioneer settlers. Theodore Richard became chief clerk of the Richard Brothers Mercantile Company of Little Falls, one of the first stores of the town. He married Vitaline Lord, of Canadian birth, and both are still living. Theirs is a notable record, for among their eight children no death has occurred.

    Rodolph R. Richard pursued his education in the public schools of Little Falls and in the Little Falls Business College, after which he entered the office of the Little Falls Herald, where he learned the printer's trade, spending a period of six years in connection with that paper. He then went to Glendive, Montana where he became manager of the Dawson County Review for James A. Metcalf, remaining manager there for a little more than a year, when the paper was sold. Mr. Richard then became connected with the Glendive Independent but after a short time removed to Miles City, Montana, where he became circulation manager and business solicitor for the Miles City Star and the Miles City Independent. His connection with these two papers covered about six months, at the end of which time he was transferred to the Yellowstone Journal, a stock growers journal, for which he was a reporter and solicitor for a period of six months. He next became connected with the Picket at Red Lodge, Montana, in the same capacity, spending three months in connection with that journal.

    On the 15th of May, 1904, he arrived in Beach and purchased the Golden Valley Progress, which he has since edited and published. It is owned by Mr. Richard and his brother, Harvey, and the paper has a circulation of twelve hundred, covering a territory of which Beach is the center of a fifty mile radius. The circulation of the paper is larger than than any other journal in the county and the office is equipped in a most modern manner, having a linotype machine, a modern two revolution rotary press and all the equipment found in a first class printing office. His brother Harvey is the linotype operator and in addition they employ two others in the office.

    Mr. Richard has devoted practically his entire life to the printing business although for a brief period in early manhood he was employed in the mercantile establishment of an uncle in Little Falls and also as a drug clerk. He found the printing business congenial and in that line has steadily worked his way upward being now at the head of a growing and profitable business.

    In politics, Mr. Richard is an independent republican and his religious faith is evidenced in his membership in the Catholic church of Beach. His attention, however, is chiefly concentrated upon his paper and he has made it an excellent journal - a credit to the community in which it is gladly received.



    The following is a portion of a recording made in 1988 of Marie Antoinette Richard Martin as told to her daughter Carol Martin Graff.

    "Harvey and Ray had a newspaper in Beech, North Dakota. They didn't get along great on it - they were two different people. Anyway, they stuck it out. Then, when I was going to high school they had me come there and I learned quite a bit too and that's when I used to work on their books. Ray had taken a course in bookkeeping and he taught me and I was good at it if I do say so myself. Then they had me doing jobs like letterheads and wedding announcements. No, I didn't set type but it was linotype. The name of the paper was "The Golden Progress" and it was a weekly. They made pretty good, advertising and all.

    The non-partisan league locked Ray up overnight in one of the places. They had it in for Ray - he had put some articles in the paper about them. They didn't arrest him - it was just some people that did it. Ray was the editor but before that he had been a reporter - that's where he started, as a reporter. Then he decided he was going to be a linotype operator and that's what Harvey did too. Harvey and Ted were linotype operators because there was good money in it.

    Harvey and Ray were linotype operators until they died. They were in San Francisco working for different people. Ted was in Santa Rosa. he was good at machinery, he was fixing their linotype machines, etc. He had a wonderful job in San Francisco - don't know about Harvey."
  • 1963
    Burial
    He was buried on 20 Dec 1963 in the Holy Cross Catholic CemeteryG in Colma, San Mateo, California, United StatesG.

    Obituary
    Obituary of Beatrice Emilia Richard

    Sister Marie Nativity Richard, a Sister of St. Joseph for 75 years, passed away at Marywood Residential Community, Crookston, November 9. She had celebrated her 93rd birthday on November 2.

    Born to Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Richard of Little Falls on November 2, 1893, Emelie Beatrice grew up in that area until 1911 when she entered the Congregation of Sisters of St. Joseph of Bourg. Making her novitiate in France, she received the religious garb and the name Sister Marie Nativity on April 22, 1912. After pronouncing first vows in 1913, she returned to the States where she began her long teaching career which spanned 57 years.

    For many years she taught grades seven and eight in schools staffed by Sisters of St. Joseph in Crookston, Argyle, Kilkenny, Stewart, Somerset and Superior.

    Earning a Bachelor of Arts degree from the College of St. Catherine, Sister Marie Nativity majored in English and French, teaching both these subjects and social studies at St. Joseph's Academy until her retirement at St. Joseph's Provincial House in 1968.

    In1972 she was elected the representative of the retired Sisters on the Apostolic Committee of her community, a position which fitted her well because she loved to be with people, working with them and for them.

    Sister Marie nativity leaves a legacy of christian example. As an artist, she loved poetry, writing verses herself, or capturing beauty in exquisite needlework and other crafts. In one of the last things she wrote, she said, "We must, by our very being, be formers of christian ideals so as to be the light of the world." This had been her life. Sister Marie nativity is survived by a sister, Mrs. Antoinette Prue, of Sacramento, California, and by several nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by three brothers and two sisters.

  • Biography
    In a letter to the preparer from John Richard, Sun City, AZ, dated 25 July 1991, he stated that:
    "Theodore Richard claimed in the divorce proceedings that she (Marie Antoinette) was not his child, something that Vitaline contested. I talked to Antoinette about her mother's story which was that she left Theodore when she discovered his adultery with Frances Ella. Unfortunately, she did not leave him in time, for she had gotten pregnant by him before he left. When she returned to Little Falls and found out about her pregnancy, she was afraid that Theodore would take the child away from her. So she kept it a secret from Theodore. The timing of the pregnancy corresponds with her being in Bemidji as documented by Theodore's statement in the divorce proceeding that she had left him on the 23rd of July 1900. This would place her in his bed and board at such a time that the nine month usual pregnancy period would be in mid-April 1901. Antoinette was born on April 23rd. I can see why the court held that Antoinette was indeed Theodore's child and awarded her alimony for support. My father, Ulysses, was about 14 years old at the time that the children were moved to Bemidji by Vitaline, and he remembered the violent quarrel and what led up to to it, and he always told us that Theodore was the guilty party in the marriage, even though he was closer to his father than his mother. Dad went to Washington with Theodore and Frances Ella and was in a position to know the truth of the matter."
