Historical Notes:
  • link to marriage is tenuous:
     only name, age, and place link this Briggs to this marriage;
    It would be nice to see the grooms parents on the marriage docs;
  • mother may have been Eliza Shaw

    Died (age 83): Berks, PA
      not mentioned in obit of mother;
    so prob died before 1960;
    link to this death record is weak, but I like the SEPT 1881 birthday
    as it matches the 1900 Census.
    2020: I now suspect this is a Bert from western NY.
    Prob our Bert died before 1920.
