'I do not know who old Captain James Higgins married, nor do I know positively all his children - will give you the names of those with whom I was acquainted, as follows: William, Thomas, Sarah, and Polly.
As before stated, William married your aunt Francis they had many sons and daughters.
Thomas Higgins married a Miss Renegar, to the best of my knowledge.
Sarah married a yankee by the name of King, in Montgomery County, and shortly thereafter emigrated, and settled near the mouth of Beau's Creek, Franklin County, Tennesee, raised a large family of respectable and handsome sons and daughters.
Polly Higgins married a gentleman by the name of Watson, who died nine or ten years thereafter, leaving his wife and four or five children.
William and Thomas emigrated about 1817 or 1818, and settled in either Indiana or Illinois, I know not which....'
Also, postulated daughter, Angeline Higgins [1827-1894] wife of Thomas Elliott Wilson
