He served in the Michigan House of Representatives and was the fourth Lieutenant Governor of Michigan. BiographyRichardson was born in Woodstock, Vermont, the son of Mason Richardson and Mary (Powers) Richardson.[1] He studied and practiced law in Woodstock.[2] While a student in the law offices of a relative, Israel Putnam Richardson (the father of Civil War General Israel Bush Richardson), Origen joined the Army and participated in the Battle of Plattsburgh during the War of 1812. He remained in Vermont and practiced law until 1826, when he moved to Pontiac, Michigan. He was admitted to the bar of Oakland County in July 1826 and began a law practice.[3] In 1830, he was a part of a three-member commission appointed to locate a seat of government for Saginaw County, which at the time was not yet organized.

Barry's governorship.[6] He continued the practice of law in Pontiac until 1854. Nebraska Territory politicsIn the fall of 1854, he moved to Omaha, Nebraska, which was had been organized as the Nebraska Territory in May of that year.[7] He served as a member of the Legislative Council in the first and second sessions of the Territorial Nebraska Legislature. He took a prominent part in framing the laws of Nebraska and was one of the three commissioners to codify those laws.[8] Family lifeRichardson and his wife Sarah P. (Hill) Richardson had two children, Lyman Richardson and Cornelia Richardson.[9] Although Richardson nominally resided in Nebraska, his wife and family remained in Pontiac until moving there in 1874.

Both were buried in Prospect Hill Cemetery in Omaha.[10] References1. ^{{cite web|url= http://records.ancestry.com/origen_drew_richardson_records.ashx?pid=90119206|title= Origen Drew Richardson|publisher= Ancestry.com|accessdate= May 29, 2014}} 2. ^{{cite book|last=Morton|first=Julius Sterling and Watkins, Albert|title=Illustrated History of Nebraska: A History of Nebraska from the Earliest Explorations of the Trans-Mississippi Region, with Steel Engravings, Photogravures, Copper Plates, Maps and Tables, Volume 1|date=1911|publisher=Western Pub. and Engraving Company|page=205|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=hHkUAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA205 }} 3. ^{{cite book|last=Seeley|first=Thaddeus D.|title=HISTORY OF OAKLAND COUNTY MICHIGAN|date=1912|publisher=THADDEUS D.
