Arch RIGBY

Notes:

The 1900 Census did not list the birth months of Archie's family but did list the years.

On the 1930 census, Arch has a new wife, Fannie Winstead.

Notes:

The 1850 Census shows Mary, age 23, born in Mississippi. This is his wife rather than his daughter. This family is difficult to trace because of the repetitive naming and the fact that so many different families resided together. I've seen a lot of sources that list 7 children for Russell and Lydia - William B, Emily Ann, Mary F, Sidney F, John Owen, Martha, and Melissa Lydia - and 8 children for Russell and Mary - Joseph A, Margaret, Russell, Charles, Louvinia, Stephen, Benjamin, and Archie. However, I have found no sources online that prove any of these children. I've also found sources that show most of these children to be nieces and nephews, again I find no sources that prove any parentage. If we go strictly with the 1850 and 1860 census records, assuming that all the children are with the correct parents, we find John O, Robert E, Sidney, Melissa, and Stephen who are all older than the supposed marriage date for Mary, and Joseph, Charles, Margaret and Miranda who would be Mary's children.
On the other hand, if brother Bryant died in 1850, Stephen, Sidney, and Malissa may be his instead of Russell's. This is the problem we deal with when a family uses the same names over and over.
