Dear Cindi; I do not know if this is a lead or not but I wanted to bring it to your attention just in case something clicks for you. I want to look into it a little more too because of the Stovall name. My Elias Griffith's 2nd wifes mother was a Stovall. I am the ggg-granddaughter of Edith (Edy) Griffith who married Wilson Cowan abt. 1820. They moved to Ripley Co., Indiana with a lot of the Griffiths & Hyatts. Please let me know if you can add to this. I am sending you my latest findings to-wit: My Elias Griffith was married 2 times. We do not know who his first wife was. There were 4 children by this marriage (according to the census records, will, etc.) One child was my ggg-grandmother, Edith (Edy) Griffith b. abt. 1801, William Griffith b. abt. 1809, 3rd unknown son, & 4th unknown son. We know Edy was born in Caswell Co. N.C. & probably the other 3 were born there too as the 1800 census shows Elias there. By 1810 he moved to Jessamine Co., Kentucky. Aug. 11, 1816 he m. widow Martha (Patsey) Crowder Huckstep b. between 1784-1789 in VA or KY. d/o Sterling & Martha Stovall Crowder (b. abt. 1762). (Note: Somebody got records messed up here because there was another Elias Griffith/Griffin in the area who m. Patsy Cook about that same time frame. But, we have straightened out ours from theirs hopefully, as we now have verified this info.) Anyway, my Elias & Patsey had 8 children together as follows: Martha Ann m. Elias Mahoney; Henry; Elizabeth m. Wm Robinson; Ashbury m. Elenor Kelly; George R. m. Eliza Jane Lee; Caroline M. m. George W. Copher; Hester Ann m. Cyrus Hyatt; Elias N. m. Minerva Young. All of these kids got married in Ripley Co., Indiana except for Henry, and we do not know what happened to him yet. She already had 6 kids by her previous marriage. What a woman, but sometimes you can get clues from those families also) I only have one more William Griffith in my datebase and he married Clara Kroeger on 30 Nov. 1847. His parents were George R. & Elisa Lee above. (grandson of my Eliza & Martha (Patsey) Hope this helps you. Let me know if you need a detailed attachment on these families. I would be very interested if you find out anything else on this family. Best regards....Carolyn Cowan Oberle of Greenfield, IN.
