I'm fairly certain that the John Washington Riggs I mentioned was born in 1840. I found him on the 1900 US Census for Lawrence Co. when he was married to his third wife. He had 2 son from his second marriage to Rachel E. Lott, John Ulysses Riggs (Sept 26, 1871-Jan 5, 1894), and William Tecumseh Riggs (my grandfather). As I said, I am new to this, and haven't found out much so far. Would like to know what Riggs family you have in Lawrence Co. B.Patterson
