    Notes:

    CONFLICT: 1870 census records her as being from SC, some sources record it as AL.

    Either the birth date or the marriage date is not right for Ann Malinda Biggers. She would have been only 11 at her marriage, and that's awfully young.

    Notes:

    In 1850, in the US Agricultural Census of York County, SC, there is an entry for the estate of William Biggers. Since we find this William, with Cynthia, in 1860, this is not him. However, it does not appear to be a brother or nephew either. So, perhaps the story of the Irish flight is not as accurate as it might be.

    In the enumeration, William Biggers estate is enumerated after Davis M. Watron, and before John Price, James E Wilson, William Anderson and William E Anderson. That makes me think that either Davis Watron or John Price is connected to the Biggers family.

    In the Eugene Morris Biggers book, the author claims that William is found in the 1850 Pontotoc census. I can't find this yet to be true. Additionally, the William Biggers in Lowndes County in 1840 is 20-29 years old and therefore cannot be this William.

    There are a bunch of Biggers, including William Biggers, in York county, SC in 1830.

    I am skeptical of the Ireland story where Mary Ann fled while pregnant. She would have had to marry once she got to the US to support herself and her children. With as many Biggers in the area as there are, I would think that either she came with her husband or some other connection was there.

    Possessions:
    E 1/2 NE 1/4 S 11 T 9 R 1 E
    For $300
    From Alexander Lewis and wife.

    Census:
    In 1860, William & Cynthia lived with Kinchen & Sarah.

    Probate:
    Administration granted to K.M. Gray

    At the end of 1869, the estate was still not closed. They had sent citations to Lafayette county with no reply. It looks like the case may have moved to Lafayette for administration.

    In the meantime, there is a gap from 1869 to 1872 in Pontotoc. The 1872 records have no internal index so no records have been found yet.

    Probate records, do list heirs and distributees, including Mrs. A M Tennyson
