Surnames: Riggs and Sampson/Samson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/HSDBAIB/1293 Message Board Post: I've encountered new information that might help with the search of my ggg grandmother Anna Riggs. Does anyone have information of the family of Edmund and Elizabeth Riggs? They resided in Tyler County, WV. Edmund was born around 1780's. Elizabeth about that same time. They are recorded in the Tyler County 1830, 1840 and 1850 federal census. In the 1830 census, Edmund had 5 daughters and 6 sons. In the 1840 census, Edmund had 4 daughter and 7 sons. In the 1850 census, he had 3 daughters and 2 sons in the household. My grandmother married Harvey G. Sampson in Tyler county, WV in 1850. Does anyone have information on Anna to connect her to this family?
