Hi Alliheat.
The only ones I know are my Great Grandfather John Rigby and my Grandmother Martha Jane Rigby as stated.I know there was 3 more sisters Maggie ,Annie and Lizzie.Their mother died at an early age and John Rigby married again and they had a daughter who ended up a school teacher. That's all I know.My mother is still alive but partially sighted and cannot make out any of the faces in the photo.
