This may be just a coincidence, but my grandmother's name is also Viola, but I believe she is from Dinwiddie, Va, where she currently lives. Her husbands name was Clarence Nathaniel Jiggetts, and he has a brother named Thomas. Again, this may be coincidental, but I'll keep checking. My e-mail address is angela.valentine@riv.afrc.af.mil. I'm anxious to see you site. I'll be in touch. Angie

Girl we must be related. Viola was my great aunt by marriage and Clearnce was my great uncle. He was my grandfather's brother. My grandfather's name is Alvin of South HIll, VA (just 30 min. south of Dinwiddi). Howard and Ceisil) always visited us in South Hill especially when they had the vans. I was really close to Felecia (Howard's daughter before he and his wife got divorce). Viola is also the name of uncle clearnce's mom. Yes, he did have a brother name Thomas but he passed away a long time ago. Of the Twelve children big Ma (grandmom viola) had only four ramain. Uncle Willie just passed away about a month ago. This is amazing. I found a cousin.

Hi Tangie, I spoke to my mother today, and she told me that my father (Clarence Jiggetts) has brothers named Howard Lee, Calvin, Leon, Joseph, an Woodrow, and also a sister named Dorothy Chambers. Some of them still live in Dinwiddie, Va. She also told me that my grandfather (Clarence Jiggetts Sr.) was originally from South Hill, then moved to Dinwiddie. There's no doubt we're cousins. I'd like to talk to you. Please e-mail me your phone number so I can give you a call.

Hi Angie, I know all of the brothers you mentioned. I see Dorthy all the time when I visit Aunt Evelyn and Aunt Ali Mae in New York. I think Dorthy lives in New Jersey and has a daughter (Jackie) that lives in South Carolina. My aunt (Ronnie that lives in Highland Springs, VA) told me that there will be a family reunion this year at Pocahontas State Park on July 14-16. I will not be able to attend but wish I could. My phone number is 619-479-2259. I tried sending you an invite to the family site but I may have entered your e-mail address wrong but I will send it again.
