Based in Utah, The Richins Surname Association has existed in one form or another since August 1966. The Association covers all spellings of the Richins surname, including Richins, Richens, Richings, and has compiled documented family histories and pedigrees for Richins families that emigrated from England to Utah in the mid-1800s, as well as their descendants.
