History of Richardsons Group

The history of the Richardson family can be traced back to Mr Richardson’s Great Great Grandfather Mr Robert Kemp who owned and ran a public house in Oulton Broad named “The Lady of the Lake”, which is still there today.

A son also named Robert, was a boat builder and built Norfolk Wherries on what was know as the “Salt Side”, on the east side of Mutford Lock. Robert Kemp No. 2 did not have a son, but he did have a daughter named Minnie. She married Mr Richardson. They had four sons, one of whom was named Robert after his Grandfather; the others were Frank, Jack and Dick.
