Richard Bolster was a English boy who lived with his family on their estate in southern Ireland with his family. He was the son of Brandon Bolster and brother to Jane and another sister.
In the late 1700s, Brandon decided to use his farm lands to feed cattle and increase his income, depriving his farmers of the means to feed their families. The Whiteboys affixed a threat to the Bolsters' barn door, and while Richard agreed with them, Brandon stubbornly refused to negotiate with the farmers.[1]
The day of the threat, Richard met the farmers to try and remind them of their goodwill, seeking to avoid confrontation. It was for naught, as a mob appeared on the estate the next day. The Bolsters and their household armed themselves and faced the angry crowd besieging their house, but were quickly overrun by their numbers. It is unknown whether Richard survived the attack.[1]
