I just had a look and could not find Siggers in the index.

[CaroleW]

Do you already have all census info on John?

[RyanSiggers14]

Not exactly I have been creating my family tree on Ancestory.com and also being searching names and places individually and came across this forum and post today.

There's a will at Chelmsford of Isaac Siggers of Mistley Thorn, Essex, master mariner, 1832.

I don't have a subscription to SEAX, but by enlarging the will I think I was able to pick out the names:

Sons Isaac and John
Daughters Rachel(?) Humphreys, Mary Ann Norfolk, Sarah Siggers, Eliza Siggers, Hannah Siggers

Ref will of Isaac Siggers, the first daughter mentioned is Elizabeth Humphreys
