I not for sure how James B. Deggs is related to us but another cousin and I are doing some research on the Deggs family. I will get in touch with her to find out what she has found and get back in touch with you asap. Feel free to e-mail me anytime on the Family research maybe between the three of us we can find more information and share it.
My mother was a Deggs before she married. Her dad was Joe Norce Deggs.
