A family story that has made its way down the generations is about the great tragedy that concerns John and his brother Henry. John, was now Col. John Richmond with Cromwell's Roundheads. Henry, hearing that John was near by decided to call on his brother. It was the evening of the Battle of Newbury 20 September 1643 when Henry appeared at John's tent door. John did not recognize his brother but saw only the Royalist uniform of the enemy, shot and killed him. As a result, John's father had to come up with enough money to save John's life.
