    Now the tricky part! Elizabeth Briggs married William Powell. Elizabeth Hempleman married Samuel Briggs, the brother of Elizabeth Briggs Powell. Now you have 2 Elizabeth Briggs with the same birth info. It happens folks! Still 2 separate people. After Samuel died Elizabeth Hempleman Briggs married Jacob Kizer.
