I have been researching the Riggs family in Craven county for a long time. My dads name was William Marvin Riggs, His father was Samuel James Riggs. His Father was Nelson R Riggs who married Nancy Ipock daughter of Samuel Ipock and Elizabeth White. Recent research Leds me to think that Nelsons father was a Noah Riggs But I dont have posite proof and may neverhave. This was arrived at my way of elimination. I used 1840 census and 1842,1845 and 1848 School census in Craven County. Ther was also an Isaac and a Nehemiah Rggs There in 1840. Looks like Noah might have died betweem 1840 and 1860. Wish I coud find some Riggs relatives out there. If I can help let me know. Thanks Mary
