Born: about 1763-00-00
Died: (unknown)

Notes:

[R10]

He appears on the 1790 census as Rigsby, but on all others as Rigby.
I think he was a son of William Rigby c1735 of Duplin Co, and a brother of William. Probably he was born in Duplin Co NC, or maybe Craven Co NC.

I think he had a son Charles c1803 who moved to Henry Co TN via Lenoir Co NC.
Was he the father of Gavin?
