Two events bound the range of dates during which Richard Norman could have been born:

  1. The earliest date, 02 Feb 1743/4: Richard Norman's mother, Elizabeth Bedon, had a sister, Ann Bedon, who married George Barnett. In George's will, dated 02 Feb 1743/4, he bequeaths a portion of his estate "unto my Beloved Brother in Law John Norman's Children Named John and Sarah Norman". However, he does NOT mention Richard. Thus, we infer that Richard wasn't born until after 02 Feb 1743/4.
  2. The latest date, 23 Sep 1747: Richard and his brother, John, sold land to their cousin, William Norman, on 23 Sep 1768. According to English Common Law (which was applicable in Colonial America), a man must have reached the age of majority (21) to legally sell land. Therefore, Richard must have been born on or before 23 Sep 1747.
