MessageI directly descend from Clement Briggs, who arrived on the Fortune in 1621. His descendants fought in every major war since King Phillip's War. Some wonderful people of note are part of this lineage.

Thank you for allowing me to join, Linda

MessageI am a descendent of Sarah Briggs Lovejoy...she is my brickwall. I have her listed on many things as Sarah Briggs (born in salem Massachusetts in 1778/1779). Parents listed on one thing as Edward and Hannah but on everything else her parents are listed as Thomas J and Hannah. She married Lovejoy in 1805. According to documents, 2 of their kids were born in 1801 and 1803. This is leading me to think that Sarah wasn't born a Briggs but in fact had married one before she married Lovejoy. Her daughters born before she married Lovejoy are also listed in census records with the last name Lovejoy but her oldest daughter is listed on some things as Clarissa Briggs Lovejoy (before getting married to a carlton). I can find nothing on Sarah before she married Lovejoy. I even contacted the Andover Massachusetts historical society (where they married). They have nothing.

MessageI am a descendant of Zadock Briggs through his son Zara Briggs. I know this DNA project mostly deals with YDNA, but have you added autosomal studies to the mix, by any chance? I would love th opportunity to compare DNA with other members who have tested, perhaps via a GEDMATCH comparison. Any thoughts on this?

MessageUnfortunately my brother and father have passed, so we cannot send DNA, but we are supposedly from the line of Clement Briggs. My father was Phillip Wayne Briggs originally of South Dakota/Nebraska border. His father was Earl Raymond (Raymond Earl) Briggs.
