From "New Jersey A History" by The American Historical Society in 1932:

BEGIN

  Richard W. Lindabury was born in Morris Plains, New Jersey, on July 16,
1878, son of William Henry and Thankfull (Philhower) Lindabury.  His father
died in 1882 and his mother died in 1930.  It was in the public schools
of Morristown that Richard W. Lindabury received his early education, and
from the high school of that place he was graduated with the class of 1896.
Then he began the study of law in the offices of Lindabury, Depue and Faulks,
well known legal practitioners.  In February, 1903, he was duly admitted
to the bar of New Jersey, and he began his legal practice with that same
firm, Lindabury, Depue and Faulks, with who he remained from November,
1896, until July, 1908.  In 1912 he became associated with the Fidelity
Trust Company, in its title department, which connection he maintained
until, in 1921, he left that company to become associated with the North
Jersey Title Insurance Company.  In the fall of 1922 he joined the firm
of Lindabury and Steelman, lawyers, and continued with them until July 1,
1927, when he withdrew from that association.  Now retired from the active
practice of the law, Mr. Lindabury nevertheless devotes part of his time
to title work, which he performs with the Fidelity Union Title and Mortgage
Guaranty Company, of Newark.
  In the fall of 1928 he was elected mayor of Morris Plains and served
one term.  He is active in civic affairs, and has served in past times
as a member of the borough council.  His political alignment is with the
Republican party.  He is a member of the Free and Accepted Masons; and is
a member, too, of the Tapkaow Club, of Morristown.  Mr. Lindabury maintains
his residence in Morris Plains, New Jersey.
