This is Dianne FArquharson here. I got your email. I am interested in the ancestors of Powell Riggins who went west after he got out of jail,for killing William wood my ex great grandfather. I know he went west and changed his name. If you can straighten out from there please do. Let me know if I can help with anything

Dianne

Dianne,

Oh my. You certainly have a special interest in this part of your family tree. I found William Wood in your tree - husband of Nancy Riggins. Her parents were Powell Riggins and Sarah unknown. Unfortunately we can't go much further than that on either line.

You should have my email address - email my privately if you want to talk about the DNA aspect; it's a particular interest of mine. Finding ancestors is very hard beyond 2-ggrandparents (they're all intermarried), but it's worth investigating.

Hi Thena,

Thanks for taking responsibility for Orphaned Profiles. This is a courtesy email to share the After Adopting Orphans FAQ which explains the special attention adopted profiles will sometimes need from their profile managers. One quick way to find the profiles you adopted is by searching your Contributions List for the word "adopted" and "manager." You can find a quick link to your Contributions List in the My WikiTree dropdown menu.

If you will be working with any profiles needing GEDCOM cleanup, the AGC tool can help with formatting so that you can concentrate on the research. You can read more about it in the WikiTree AGC FAQ.

Let me know if you have any questions,

Debi

Then a,

I am Bobby Rawls from Big Spring, Texas. I have been researching all Rawls-Ralls everywhere for about 40 years. I have a good bit on your line of Rawls and Ralls. And am in contact with other descendants of James Ralls.

I tested with ancestry DNA and currently have 29 other participants that have given me access to their results.

I am going through and identifying their matches and placing them in the right families.

Please contact me Bobby Rawls
