Do you remember the song “Movin’ Right Along” from The Muppet Movie? It got stuck in my head when I started to put this post together. (Apologies if it’s now stuck in yours.)
Week 46. Only 6 more. 6!
This week, I featured Martha Hibbs, the first wife of Philip Mason. (You know, the Civil War vet who married his second wife less than 2 weeks after she divorced.)
Be sure to take a look at the posts from Week 45. Leave a like to your recent post in the comments below.
Happy blogging!

My 4X great grand uncle helped me break through a brick wall with my Riggin family, but he was such an interesting man in his own right. He knew Abraham Lincoln, lent him books when Lincoln was a young man, lost an election to Abe in 1838, and was a prominent Menard County, Illinois, citizen in his day. I also found a drawing of him in an old Atlas that I was able to purchase.
