Joseph Riddick

Joseph Riddick

Joseph Riddick (1735 - Nov. 18, 1818) was a North Carolina politician who served as Speaker of the North Carolina Senate from 1800-1804 and from 1806-1811. Only Bartlett Yancey and Marc Basnight have led the state Senate for a longer span of time. Riddick was also a veteran of the American Revolutionary War.

He represented Gates County in the legislature over a period of 35 years, including service in the North Carolina House of Commons (1782-1784) and in the North Carolina Senate (1785-1811, 1815, 1817). He ran unsuccessfully for the United States House of Representatives as a Democratic-Republican in 1810 and 1813 (and also got a handful of votes, likely unsolicited, in 1815).
