My father mentioned a family home called Riggs Hill in the Boston area. Possibly in south-east Boston or it could be south east of Boston. I have not been able to find it either, but I have never really looked. Scott On Thursday, November 7, 2002, at 02:43 AM, baumann wrote: > Hi Bobby, > > Sorry, I can't help you.

Seeking burial location of Captain Edward RIGGS [1720--1820] in Jefferson NOW Hamblen Co, TN. His property adjoined that of Gideon MORRIS who donated the first land to start the city of Morristown, TN. He is most likely buried NEAR Morristown, TN. Seeking burial location of Reuben RIGGS [1747--1837] born in NJ and died in Giles Co, TN. Married to Mary CRAWFORD. My info points to Reuben being son of the above Captain Edward RIGGS. Seeking burial site of William RIGGS [1784--aft 1860] in Giles Co, TN. He was son of Reuben RIGGS and was married to Mildred "Millie" McGHEE. Any help on these RIGGS ancestors of my wife will be appreciated. Bobby G. Carwile

My great-great gandfather's name was John Riggs, Married to Mary Gilman, but that is where my research ends. They were both born in the 1790's in New Haven, CN. His father was also John Riggs, married to Hanna Johnson, but I have not verified this information. Good luck on you search. If you don't mind, email me back so I can forward any information I develop to you. I live in Tennessee, but my roots are in Utah. I am 62 years old, married, with three children of my own. My wife has six children. We have 23 grand kids together.

The above Elias Riggs is descended from Rev William Riggs, correct?

1924 in Ray Co. Missouri, His name was William Riley Riggs. and in both of his marriages there is no Eleanor Riggs that I can see. Williams first wife was Sarah O'Dell and they only had one daughter and her name was Ruth Jane ( my great grandmother). His second wife was Mary Goates and they had two girls named Ollie Francis and Beulah Angeline.

I would like to know if there was another William R. Riggs who was a preacher becaues mine didn't have a daughter named Eleanor
