I am looking for info on my families from Unicoi County. My gandfather is Dorsey Briggs b.12-22-1937 married Leila Casey Briggs b. 4-3-1941. Dorsey's father was Emery Briggs b.5-5-1916 d.12-28-1984. He married Beluah Silvers. He married again and had other kids. Emery's father was Gillmore Briggs. Not sure about the spelling of Gillmore. His mother was Mary. I do not have anything further on her. They had Emery, Buster, Buck, and Kate. They also raised other kids. I do not know why they raised them or who their real families were. Those kids were Posey, Clarck, and Faye. If anyone has any further info on any of these folks please let me know.
