More Information on Koonce
&

Cemeteries
|
Thank you so much for the transcription and pictures of the (Koonce) cemetery. I
have some information on two of the people buried in Koonce cemetery:
|
Susan WIGGINS:
Susan A. (CARTER) WIGGINS was born in GA. She was the 1st wife of Uriah
Jasper WIGGINS and they were married March 21, 1867 in Catahoula Parish,
LA.
|
Wife of T.M. WIGGINS:
Mary Columbia "Lumbie" (MUSGROVE) WIGGINS, daughter of John Smith and
Louisia J. (SIMMONS) MUSGROVE, was the 1st wife of Thomas Marion WIGGINS.
Thomas and his 2nd wife –Margaret "Maggie" Ann (MEEKS) WIGGINS are buried in
Dry Creek Cemetery near Grangerland just off FM 3083.
|
Thomas
Marion "Tom" was the younger brother of Uriah Jasper so Susan and Mary
Columbia were sisters-in-law.
My gg grandfather was
William Grant Wiggins – buried in Dry Creek Cemetery – and he, Uriah
Jasper and Thomas Marion were brothers, so I'm somewhat familiar with
the Wiggins genealogy.
