RIGGS m. Martha C. PROCTOR, 5 Mar. 1861, Tippah Co., MS. Tippah Co. is in the northeastern part of MS. At the Tippah Co., MS site the 1850 Tippah Co. census shows a Martha PROCTOR, age 8, b. NC. Does anyone connect with this couple? What does the initial, "W" in John's name stand for? Any help is greatly appreciated. Peggy Riggs Kopp
