Notes:
[R52]
married in Wake Co NC
He was born between 1790 and 1800, probably closer to 1790.
He is no doubt a son of James, John, Frederick, or Archibald. My guess would be James.
He appears only on the 1830 census. Possibly he died before 1840.
Was he father of Henry Edward Rigsby?
--
He was a Justice of the Peace in Wake Co NC.
