I think it might be possible that your Dad is my Uncle "Danny" Riggs? Do you know if his Father's name was Frank(Francis) Riggs? I know my Grandfather, Frank, was living in Nelson around the time your Father was born, & i know his youngest Son was Danny. Maybe its just a coincidence? If your Dad is my Uncle, hello cousin! & i will be happy to let you know what i know.

They are buried there. Two of their children: Corbett Riggs, also of Konowa, and Cora Gertrude (Riggs) Linscott, lived in Ada, Ponotoc, OK, a neighboring town and the county your Frank lived in. Frank is a familiar name to me but I fear my Frank may not be yours. I will throw this is for good measure. My aunt knew a Frank Riggs who lived in McAlester, OK which is in Pittsburg County and is the neighboring county on the east to Ponotoc. Happy Hunting! Velma Case

Do you know his kids? Clisby was my Frank Riggs' father. His father was John Henderson Riggs and J.H's father was Walter Clisby Riggs. If any of this is familiar to you, let me know. The Frank Riggs I knew, had a cleaning establishment in Neosho, MO. in the 1970's. I wish I could make contact with his family as they have information I could use in my search. Hope this helps.

A family bible indicates that he left home in 1898 at the age of 17 and went into Arkansas. He shows again in Pittsburg County, OK. in 1910 census where in he list his current marrage as the second. He often used the initals C G instead of Charley Green. I viewed the website for Riggs family and found a marriage of Alice Riggs to a CG Campbell with a female living child. This child would now be abt. 80-90 years old, if still living. CG Campbell is the grandfather of my wife, Mary Katherine Campbell Bruner, b. 1-15-1935. Would someone in the Riggs family have our missing information. THANKS Donald Bruner [email protected]

Frank, I have Edmond (w/Ruth Summers) as a son of James; son of Edward, Sr./Mary Browne. I have found Edmond spelled with both the 'o' and 'u'. I do have a lot of holes in the siblings and would appreciate any information you could share. I have just recently started this long trek of family heritage but will share anything that would be helpful to you. My line goes through Edward, Sr.'s other son, Edward, Jr., who would have been a brother to James. Thanks, Sarah (Riggs) de Bree [email protected]

There were a lot of RIGGS in that area, and a lot of them were cousins. It is very confusing, and there is a lot of misinformation on the net. Rose Ann daughter of Rosannah WHITLATCH and James RIGGS had nine children by Thomas GRIM between 1853 and 1865, so I don't think she is your Anna. Do you have any dates which might help decide for sure?

Harriet another daughter married my ggg granddad William Kerby. At about the same time, they(Harriet&William and Harvey and Anna) moved to Calhoun Co. WV. This is not coincidental.

I am researching my ggg grandmother Anna Riggs. I too, have seen the LDS Ancestral File of James and Rosanna. My ggg grandmother Harriet was one of James and Rosanna's daughters. Harriet had married William Kerby of Greene Co. PA. My other ggg grandmother Anna married Harvey George Sampson and was listed in the 1850 Greene Co. Pa Census. I was wondering if possibly Anna could be the Anna on the LDS file? Birth date is about right, and they(Harriet&William and Harvey&Anna) moved to the same county (Calhoun Co. WV) about the same time. Do you have any information about Anna? Or even Harriet? In the LDS file, it has Anna marrying a GRIMM. I don't know if she was married before she married my ggg grandfather Harvey. This could not be coincidental. Feel free to email me [email protected] [email protected] Thank you in Advance.
