Jasper is thought to be synonymous with Jeptha Woolman the illegitimate daughter of Ann. Richard was born two years before the Duke of Wellington, so in his lifetime he probably raised a few glasses to Britain's victories. Richard was the youngest of six children, when he was born his eldest brother Edward would have been 13, he was christened at Kibworth Beauchamp. He married a local girl, but the ceremony took place in Fleckney. During his lifetime he would have seen Leicestershire become a centre for handframe knitting and the growth of the canals as first Loughborough (1778) then Leicester (1794) became canal ports.
