On the Lawrence Co., AL site there is a listing of people buried in the Mountain Springs Cemetery. No. 158 is a J. U. RIGGS (John Ulysses RIGGS) s/o John Washington RIGGS Sept. 26, 1871 - Jan. 5, 1894: http://www.rootsweb.com/~allawren/cemeteries/mountainsprings.htm Does anyone have either of these individuals in their data base? If so, any information on either would be greatly appreciate. Peggy Riggs Kop
Don't have them in my data base [at least I don't THINK I do]. Went to Google.com and did a search on John Washington RIGGS. I found a site that lists various names being researched in Missouri. There is one researcher who stated they were researching Melvin Claud RIGGS, born 1879 Decatur Co TN - d 1931 Hayti, Pemiscot Co MO - son of Isiah Calvin RIGGS - grandson of John Washington RIGGS. The url for the site is http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~mosurnames/R.html Hope it helps ----- Original Message ----- From: <artnpeg@epix.net> To: <RIGGS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, February 28, 2003 8:13 AM Subject: [RIGGS-L] John Ulysses RIGGS > On the Lawrence Co., AL site there is a listing of people buried in the Mountain > Springs Cemetery.
