| Burial | Researcher Note at Find A Grave Memorial:
"His name appears as Andrew G. Riggins in 1910 census for Butler Co. MO. Death cert says Arther G. Riggins. Informant was his son Luther Riggins. An informant does not always have the correct information. He goes by Granville in most census records. At no time is the spelling of surname as Riggens. In census records his birthplace appears as AL,GA, and TN. Death cert says TN.
There are four children who are probably buried at Three Springs Cemetery but don't find stones for them. They are: Minnie E. Riggins b. 3 Oct 1885 died 22 Dec 1908, Jesse Edward Riggins b. 10 Nov 1895 died 20 Jul 1896, Freddie Riggins b. 30 Jun 1907 died 15 Jan 1808 and Mabel Riggins b. 2 Dec 1908 and died 2 Mar 1909." |
