Hi.. sorry this isn't a message to be able to connect you... I think we are all trying to find that elusive connection for our Giggey line; however, I just found a note that I had written years ago and filed away for a future date.
It was taken from the Family Registry at the Family History Centre in Salt Lake City, Utah:
Giggey, William
b. 12 Jun 1846 USA/ME. Aroostook Co.
d. 21 Feb 1920 USA/PA. Clearfield
F. Edward Giggey
b. 1812, New Brunswick, Canada
d. 1905, Ft. Fairfield, ME.
M. Mary Bishop ca 1820, Ft. Fairfield, ME.
Sp. Annie Bloom (Blum)
Lumberman in Me. Penn.
Children: Daniel, Victoria, Oncida, Fred, and Electa?
If you would like to email me at
olfert5star@telusplanet.net, I can give you the name of the person and their address who submitted this information. I don't know if she would still be at this address but it is worth a try.
There are a few others besides myself who are trying to connect our Giggey line to the same time period - early 1800s - in New Brunswick. A lot of them settled in Kingston Parish and Hampton Parish, Kings Co., NB plus quite a few of them were involved with the water - seaman, boat builders - so those people would likely be closer to Saint John, NB, and Queens Co., as well.
