Here is some information that might be helpful. I don't have any way to know if it pertains to "Captain Riggs."

On Pgs 126-128 there is information about a Capt. Riggs, who rescued men at Prairie du Chien, The place where the attack occurred was called Campbell's Island in 1814. He was the commandor of the Illinois Rangers. My question is---what is his first name ? Is anyone out there familiar with this Indian attack ? My history is poor---need some help !
