James Erastus Rigsby
Lilla May Rigsby
Ludie Vandora Rigsby

Notes:

[R40.5.2.3]

married in Crawford Co GA
both buried in Crosland cemetery, Colquitt Co GA

I'm pretty sure he is the James who ended up in Tift Co GA.
I had his oldest son's middle name as Rastus, but the census shows him as James E, so I'm guessing it was really Erastus. This James' middle name may also be Rastus/Erastus.
