The only other information I have on my Riggs family is that my
grandmother, Ruth Ella Riggs, was born on 2/14/1895 and died in IL on
9/13/1966. She is buried in the Laird Cemetery in Belle Riev, Jefferson
County, IL.

Are your RIGGS related to:
James F RIGGS m. Catherine PLUNKETT
They had a dau.
Alice Mae RIGGS
b. 1 Dec 1880 Drew Co., AR
d. 28 Jul 1921 E. St. Louis, MO
b. Mt. Pleasane Cem., Hamilton Co., IL
m. 18 Feb 1900, McLeansboro, Hamilton Co., IL
s. George F. GARRISON,
son of Thomas J and Elsia Frances (LANE) GARRISON
(no info on him)
They had:
a) Ernest Thomas Garrison b. 1901
b) Thelma Alice Garrison b. 12 Feb 1921


I "THINK" there is a RIGG buried at the Garrison Cem., but it is not
on the web.

Years ago I got a letter the RIGG family were related to a
Etta B. (that's how she signed her letter), with no address.
Any clue to this Etta?

Thanks!

Dianna
