Vanessa This is awesome. Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou. My relatives are buried there and I thoroughly enjoyed watching the video. What a lovely place - wish I could fly over from Australia and visit - nevermind. My line goes back to John RIGG and wife Ann. Their son James B1765 Twynholm married Grace TAGGART 1796. Fifth son John RIGG 1805-1863 came to Australia and that is why I am here. I am trying to find the connection between my RIGGS and MAXWELLS. Mary Rigg was the daughter of a John Rigg and I think it is the same line - any help would be appreciated.
