Records show that Uriah Biggs married Delila Jane Baythe. It's possible that Delila
used Jane as her name. So instead of Lane...Jane.
I am not related to this family, but read the queries regarding this family. In the
records book, I also see a Reuben Biggs who married Olive Wilson in 1834, then Olive
remarries in 1836 to a Benjamin Jones. Uriah shows up as Beggs in the record book index,
but the part on him is not in the book. Looking at other Biggs and Beggs, I see a James
Beggs who was one of the earliest settlers in Fountain County and it shows that he was
from Clarks County, Indiana. Uriah shows as an administrator for a Leonard Keep in 1832.
I did find biographies in the book COUNTIES OF WARREN, BENTON, JASPER AND NEWTON, INDIANA
1883 for G. W. Biggs, Daniel Dutton Biggs, and Elias A. Biggs. Have you seen these?
Freeling is not mentioned, along with Laura Biggs who another person is researching. I do
feel that these Biggs are all related somehow. But finding the connection is the hard
part.
