Giles Briggs was my great great father,born in New York, had 5 children that I know
of. 1870 Berrien Michigan lists them as
Aurilia, Mary C, Freddie G, and William B..
William B was my great grandfather. Giles
married Mary Louisa Brodbeck in Medina Co. Ohio.
William was born in Michigan in 1867. The rest were born in Medina Ohio. Sure of all this through conversation with family. Aurilla was called Aurli, not sure of spelling. Mary C. died in Michigan very young. William had 3 children I Know of, Earl
Merle (My Grandfather), and Elvie (Lived to be over 100 yrs.)Died in Memphis a few years ago. Earl Briggs son pitched for the Memphis Chicks.
