1. 1850-12-26 Elizabeth Walker
Children of Robert Rigsby and Elizabeth Walker:
Notes:
[R13.4.1.3]
married in Goochland Co VA
There is also an 1854-12-12 Goochland Co VA marriage record for Robert H Rigsby 1834 + Barbara Ann Walker 1831. Robert is shown as son of William C Rigsby. This was the only Robert in Goochland Co, but he clearly married Elizabeth. Robert H + Barbara appear on the 1860 census in Hanover Co VA, but that is the only time I see them.
