Surnames: Briggs Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/5gC.2ACE/236.1.1.1 Message Board Post: I knew my note to you was a long-shot. My grandfather (James Franklin Briggs) -- sometimes went by Frank Briggs -- disappeared from eastern Ohio sometime in the 1930's or so. I believe he was born in 1875. Just a shot at trying to find my roots. If there is any chance this is the same person, please let me know, and I'll provide more details. Thanks so much. Bob
