Re: Briggs Family

Paula,
I have found Henry Briggs(born in Rimmington in 1857.
This man married a Sarah Thornley.
They had six children....John, Fred, Mary, James (who died in infancy) Henry and another James(born three years after his namesake died...)
Does this sound like it might be the right family?
There are a lot of Briggs families so I needed to ask.
I have an Ancestry account so these were found on that site...but if you wanted to search for your family yourself, there is a FREE genealogy website called FamilySearch....you have to join, but it is completely free and you cannot get better value than that!
