Nancy, Your subject indicates Accomac Co., Va, but I saw nothing to indicate the people you mentioned are from that area? I have done research on the Riggs in that area. Be more specific if you are interested in them. Harriette H. Riggs

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Riggs, Whitfill Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/HSDBAIB/411.566 Message Board Post: David, Hi! I am descended from Elizabeth Riggs and Joseph Whitfill/Whitfield of marriage occurred in Washington Co., Ky in 1798. I am wondering what you might have on the Washington/Nelson Co Ky Riggs. Do you know who the Sarah Riggs was who is in the 1800 tax list? Or whose child John is that married Mary Newton in 1801 Washington Co Ky? I am tryong to find a link to Elizabeth above. Since John married close to time ELizabeth did, I thought maybe they could be close in age and possibly related. Help, you seem to be the foregoing expert on the Riggs. I know that this particular families history has been stopped at Elizabeth for a long time and would like to get it figured out. Thanks again, Nancy

Do you want to know something strange about the Samuel Riggs born 1796 who married Elizabeth Sutton? I can't find any children for them. Am I not looking in the right spot, or what? Does anyone out there have children for them?

Mary, I think we talked once before. What was the birth date for William Franklin again? Charity's brothers and sisters were born in the 1830's and 1840's. I should list them as this is going back to the list. Going back to a former question Sarah asked. I would think Samuel was born in 1796 still, as he married 9 Jun 1820;(I don't have a place for that marriage yet either) SAmuel Riggs and Sebrina Splawn had these children: 1) Phoebe, born 29 Dec 1822 died young 10 Sep 1824 2) Mary Riggs 1 Dec 1824; I believe she married a William Hoover, born in 1816 3) John Riggs, 24 Aug 1827. He died 31 Sep 1857. He married Barriba (?) Allen, born 1833. (John died when he was just 30) 4) William Riggs 1 Sep 1829 5) Isaac Riggs 8 Sep 1831 (some records have it 1832) But he died in the Battle of Shiloh, TN, 6 Apr 1862. (He was only 31 when he died.) 6) Charity or "Chantz" Riggs born 29 Apr 1834 and died 17 Sep 1871. She married 25 Dec 1856 Thomas William Hutton, M.D. (She died at 37) 7) Phariha Riggs 12 Jan 1832 8) Azariah Riggs 7 May 1837 and died 28 Nov 1861 (we aren't told how he died, but he was only 24) 9) Francis Mary Riggs 22 May 1839 10) Sabrina Riggs 26 Dec 1849 and she died 17 Feb 1883 ( died at 34) ( If the death date we have for Samuel is right, 12 Feb 1842 Campbell Co., KY, then this child must be from Sebrina's second marriage to Peter Goodman. But if so, why wouldn't she bear his name??) 11) Nanroi Riggs 4 Jun 1845/1855 12) Francis Edney Riggs 13 May 1847/1857 (male) and died young 6 Apr 1862 Life must have been really hard back then, for so many of this family to die young. Possibly five children of the twelve lived out their thirties, and I don't even know that for sure. ----- Original Message ----- From: MARY Sent: Tuesday, May 07, 2002 6:19 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [RIGGS-L] Books on Riggs My mother was from GRUNDY County.

Sarah, Also, I think this family stayed in the MO-KY area. I have that he died in 1842 Campbell Co., KY, but that may not be correct, as there were children born later than that to them. However, after he died Sebrina remarried sometime before 1856 to Peter Goodman, and some of those later children could be his. They then lived in Grundy Co., MO, and that is all the information I now have on them.

Sarah, As far as I know, SAmuel Riggs birthdate of 1796 is confirmed. I say "as far as I know", because it was given me by another family researcher. I thought about the numbers being off too, but I have never found another Samuel Riggs married to Charity/Chantz Splawn. No, I never got a middle initial for him, or a birth place.

Sorry, Newspapers in area!! Harriette

Helen, Was Asa's surname 'Riggs'? I found an Asa under the ancestors of Abigail Riggs. The last name for this Asa is 'Shurtleff' and this family settled around North Bolton, Connecticut. This Asa was born June 13, 1770 and died in 1839. This information was in the LDS Pedigree file. Hope this helps, Sarah
