• Notes

  I find a lot of records in Upshur County for the Riggs family but it is hard to decipher the relationships. I find Theodore Alexander married to Elizabeth Foster. I find Jesse Theodore married to Anna Eliza Foster. I believe these are the same people but can't be sure. Jesse's father is Alexander. The children for Jesse and Eliza include Samantha Lee, Lucy Clyde, and Georgeanna. Only Thomas' death certificate has Theodore Alexander and Elizabeth. Samantha's has Th J and Elizabeth. Hariett comes from the 1870 Census and her other records are under Etta. Samantha has a death certificate under SIMMONS and is on the 1900 census but I can't make out her husband's given name. Lucy has a death certificate under COCHRAN, she maied Thomas Hayes Cochran. Georgeanna has a death cert under PENCE. There is also a marriage record for Georgeanna to Jas or Jos H SNELL and Daniel Pence. The Pence marriage shows her name as Anna GOODWIN.
