I have so far came across two people of the same name and I will have to try and eliminate the incorrect one. The first George married Mary Reid in Lochgelly, Fife on 06/11/1908 and His parents were James Riggans (deceased) and Mary Riggans (mulligan). Her parents were John Hill and Elizabeth Hill. Both George and Mary were widowers. The second George was married to Isabella Gillespie on 31/12/1874 in Plain,, New Lanark. His parents were James Riggins and Mary Milligan and her parents were John Gillespie and Janet Duffie ( I think as I've not got to grips with the handwriting yet) I would be grateful for any information but this is not a newbie wanting everyone to do his work - I will be working really hard to piece together as much as I can myself.
