George F. Richards
George Franklin Richards (February 23, 1861 – August 8, 1950) was a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) from April 9, 1906 until his death. He also served as Acting Presiding Patriarch of the LDS Church from 1937 to 1942 and President of the Quorum of the Twelve from May 25, 1945 until his death.
==Family==
Richards was born in Farmington, Utah Territory, the son of Franklin D. Richards and Nanny Longstroth. Richards' father was an apostle of the LDS Church and a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. Franklin D. Richards also served as President of the Quorum of the Twelve from 1898 to 1899.
After George Richards's death, one of his sons, LeGrand, became a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of the LDS Church, thus making the Richards family only the third Latter-day Saint family in history with three consecutive generations with members in the Quorum (the others being the succession of George A. Smith, John Henry Smith, and George Albert Smith and of Amasa M. Lyman, Francis M. Lyman, and Richard R. Lyman).〔Hyrum, Joseph F., and Joseph Fielding Smith were also three consecutive generations of apostles, though Hyrum wasn't a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.〕
Richards was baptized by Oliver L. Robinson, who would later become his father-in-law.〔Jenson, Andrew. ''Latter-day Saint Biographical Encyclopedia'' (Salt Lake City: Deseret News Press, 1901) vol. 1, p. 544.〕 In 1882, Richards married Alice A. Robinson.〔 George and Alice had 15 children.〔''Encyclopedia of Mormonism'', Appendix 1, p. 1644.〕 One of the halls in Heritage Halls at Brigham Young University is named for Alice.
