He left for the USA in 1894, on board the “Teutonic” passing through Ellis Island on 29th March. His last contact with Wales was in 1898 when a legal document was sent by him from the Philippines. This was the time of the Spanish American War and Griffith was serving in the US Army. In 1910 he was he was in Alaska but by 1920 he was in Washington State, married to a Norwegian woman named Anna, 25 years his junior. He finally became a naturalised US citizen in 1919, the year he left the army. He died in 1938 and was buried at Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery in San Diego. His widow was buried by his side in 1974. Until yesterday I had believed him to be childless but taking advantage of the free access to the 1930 census, I found him in San Diego with a child named Griffith M., aged 1 year and 8 months old (born 1928).
