Paula, Don't know that I can be of any help. I am still looking for the family of Samuel born 1796. He has to fit somewhere. I have not previously heard about Jacob; could Mary have had a twin, in Samuel?

Thanks, Paula ----- Original Message ----- Paula, I have a Samuel Riggs born in 1796, I thought either TN or KY. Would you know where Jacobs' children were born?

He was born in 1769, unknown where or who his parents were. He married a Rachel Gurrin. He had three children that I know of; Lewis born in 1793 (that I am a descendant of) Elias born in 1794 and Mary born in 1796. Any help would be appreciated greatly.
