Oh Queries Forum Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Oh/Madison?read=622 Surname: Moore, Riggin ------------------------- I do not have definite proof of Priscilla Riggin's parentage. Sharol Riggin in her book "Teage Riggen and his Riggen-Riggin Riggins descendants" offers the hypothesis that she was the daughter of Charles Riggin, Jr. and his wife Rachel Cottingham. Charles died young in 1766 and Rachel remarried. In Charles Riggin, Sr.'s will in 1744 he mentions a granddaughter Priscilla. It seems most probable that Priscilla was definitely from the large Riggin family which started in Somerset County, MD and then spread to Worcester Co., MD and Sussex Co., DE. Actually, they may have stayed put and the land boundaries simply changed around them. However, Sharol Riggin gives Isaac as Priscilla's brother. Could you tell me the evidence of a David Riggin being her brother? Sharol does list him as a possibility in her book. Have you seen a copy of that?
