Notes:

[R51]

married in Orange Co NC

He probably died in 1860, after the census.

He may have been a son of Jesse, but on the census Jesse is shown with only daughters.
He was a brother of Luke.
A Partin researcher says they were children of James Rigsby + Elizabeth Partin.

Did he have another daughter?
Did he have a son Lucien? Or was that a grandson? Or from another branch entirely?
