Enoch Grubbs Sr. was born about 1755. It is believed that he came to South Carolina from Virginia but this has not yet been proved. While his parents have not been determined so far, we have identified one possible sibling; a brother named James Grubbs. It has been said that Enoch Grubbs was raised in an old community know as Feasterville that was associated with the Scotch-Irish settlers. Enoch Grubbs first wife was Floried K. Burton, (1757-1812), whom he married about 1775. His second wife, Mary Henson, born 1780, was the mother of his last six children. They were wed about 1815. We know that he was in the Camden District of Fairfield County, South Carolina as early as 1774. He died in Fairfield County about 1832. It is not know where he is buried. Enoch Grubbs Sr. joined the South Carolina militia during the Revolutionary War. He served under Captains Anderson, Thomas, and Liles and participated in the Battle of Four Holes in November 1781.
