Notes - SAR lineage papers show this William to be a son of James (no sources noted). I don't know if he really belongs in this family, but I have placed him here as a working lineage. There is another William Briggs living around the same time who married Freelove Colvin.
His marriage is recorded in Providence, where the marriage of his (assumed) brother James is recorded.
Some family trees show another son named Zadock in this family, b c 1757 Cranston, RI, d 1823 in Adams, Washington, Ohio. In 1790 and 1800 a Zadock Briggs is in the censuses at Hampshire MA. In 1819, on tax records in OH.
