Hi! Alison Well.... My brick wall consist of the name George Brigham... born in Worcester Co. He married Sarah Brooks also born Worcester Co. and they had a son by the name of Clarence Brigham (my Grandfather) that was also born Worcester Co. July 6,1887 and died May 10,1963. and was living in RI at the time of death and was burried just across the line into East Putam Ct. He and my grandmother Winifred Cooper Brigham had parted but never divorced. I never knew my Grandfather or anything about him and so no I have his death cirt.and I see that George Brigham was his Father and Sarh Brooks was his mother (My great grandparents) But it doesn't tell me much on them as to when they were born or died. Having that might be helpful in my search. It took an act of congress just to find out about the death cirt.as all the family members are passed on now. I am living in Tx so its not as though I can run to Worcester city hall to check out their files! :-( So all in all I am looking for the birth and death and where they were or burried or anything I can find out about them.
