A Richardson DNA Study on the "Genealogy & Genetics: Richardson" website contains the following information, which confirms Amarenthia Smith's marriage to John Richardson:

John Richardson b. 1655, son of Thomas Richardson b. 1633, married Elizabeth and is the immigrant ancestor. His son, John Richardson 1673/4 -1698/9 (the elder) married Mary DuBois, daughter of Isaac DuBois of Ulster County, NY. They removed to Virginia.
John Richardson, son of John Richardson "the elder," was born about 1699 and died in Orange County, SC in 1781. In 1729, he married in Orangeburg, S.C., the beautiful Amarenthia Smith, daughter of Thomas II and Sabana. At the time of his marriage to Amarenthia Smith, John had a home and warehouses in St. Augustine, FL. South Carolina Newspaper notices record both his marriage and travels. The last will and testament of George Seaman, published 1769 at Page 287 in Charleston District, SC Will Book RR 1767-1771, devises a legacy
