This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/HSDBAIB/1329.3 Message Board Post: I am looking at your John Riggs as the possible brother to my ancestor Elias Riggs. I know that John was born abt 1757 in Frederick County Md and Elias was born about 1772 also in Frederick County Md. I have a transcript of John's will and he mentions an Elias but didn't have a son named Elias unless he had an Elias by his first wife Mary Murphy. Can you help me out with the connection between these two men?
