Thank you Frank for all the info; it looks like this family of Riggs pretty well stayed in PA There is some similarity of names that made me wonder if they might connect to the line of Riggs I am resaearching. The names Fleming (Flemmon) and Francis also occur in a Keen line I am researching that is connected to our Splawns and Riggs. Maybe certain names are just popular at certain times.
