What is the date and Burial Place for William Martin Biggs. married Anna Cora Taylor. lived in Lamoille, Elko County, Nevada, then Upper Valley, Pershing county, Nevada near Lovelock, Nevada. The same info needed for Anna Cora Taylor. One of their children my grandmother Mable Clair Biggs was born in Pleasant Valley, Elko county, Nevada, on the 7th of July 1875. I have no other information on the Biggs family that my grandmother came from. except her siblings and they are deceased. My grand mother was Mable Clair Biggs Jeakins. I would greatly appreciate any help in finding this information. Thank You. I can't seem to delete this message. I have found my Great Grand Father William Martin Biggs. He is buried in Lone Mountain Cemetery, Lovelock, Pershing, County, Nevada. ================================================================= The grave marker Jackson Biggs is one and the same William Martin Biggs. William Martin Biggs enlisted in the Union Army in 1864 as a substitute enlistment for his younger cousin Jackson Biggs. As he was wounded in the Civil war and drew a Civil War pension, when he was buried in 1925, the Veteran Group that buried him, had to by law place the name Jackson Biggs on his grave. But no dates were placed there. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- William Martin Biggs, b. June 28, 1844. Terre Haute, Vigo County, Indiana. d. February 21, 1925, Lovelock, Nevada m. Anna Cora Taylor. May 31, 1868, Clay County, Indiana. b. July 25, 1848, Vigo County, Indiana. d. March 13, 1920. lovelock, Nevada. Both are buried at Lone Mountain Cemetery. Lovelock, Nevada. William Martin's grave marker says Jackson Biggs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Any one else looking for William Martin Biggs, there you have it. when I figure out how to delete this I will do so later.
