married in Breckinridge Co KY
both buried in Victory cemetery, Jackson Co OK

--
DNA results suggest he doesn't belong with this family. A descendant of his matches a descendant of Almon Rigsby. But I can't find any way for this John to belong with any of Almon's sons. And this John seems to have been born in KY, whereas all Almon's line were in TN. There were some Rigsbys who moved from KY to TX, but they're all from my James' descendants.
