Question:

Family Tree - Hale/Lindy Boggs?

I am looking for the names of the grandchildren of Hale and Lindy Boggs, so the children of Cokie Roberts, Tommy Boggs and Barbara Boggs Sigmund.

I believe Cokie has a son, Lee, and daughter, Rebecca. I have no information on the children of Tommy or Barbara.


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Mary Martha Corinne Morrison Claiborn Boggs b. Dec 27, 1943 is known as Cokie Roberts. Boggs was married to Steven B. Roberts. You are correct that they have two children: Lee Harris Roberts, an investment banker in London, and Rebecca, host of "The Intersection" on WETA 90.9 FM in Arlington, Virginia.

She is the child of Thomas Hale Boggs and Marie Corinne Claiborne.( aka Lindy) Their other two children were Barbara Boggs born May 27, 1939 died October 10, 1990. She was the mayor of Princeton married to Thomas Sigmund. She died after an 8 year battle with cancer. I don't believe that she had any children. The other sibling was Thomas Hale Boggs, Jr. He is an attorney and lobbyist. He was married to Mary Barbara Denechaud on December 27, 1960. Tommy has three children, two boys and a girl, although I was unable to find their names after an exhaustive search.

Wendy C was right though. They are in the public eye and with Tommy being a lobbyist and attorney he has probably faught long and hard to keep his family from becoming targets by keeping them out of the "spotlight".

Good luck,
