Hello, my name is Lena & currently I am working on my Griner family for my grandfather, who is a Griner, who will be 89 in July. Right now I find his Uncle Clayton, as he calls him, to be a stumbling block for he & his family have hidden themselves quite well in that pesky 'Ancestor Relocation Program' we all know & love. Uncle Clayton was born up here in Jawgha, in the city of Nashville county of Berrien, on 09 September of 1879 to my second great-grandparents Martin Jasper & Olive Missouri NASH Griner. In 1900 he is listed in Clarke County, Georgia (was a student at UGA) & from there went to Mercer & graduated with a law degree. Come 1910 he is in D.C. as a legal secretary for a member of Congress from Georgia, 1920 & 1930 he is in Jacksonville with his wife Edna SAVILLE Griner (18 September 1882 - 28 October 1979) & children Oliver Clayton Jr. (died in 1923) & Samuel Saville Griner ( 28 September 1918 - 20 January 1997). Uncle Clayton passed-away 18 September 1976 in Jacksonville as did the others. He was the President of an insurance company in Jacksonville & is said to have been the mayor at one point. I am looking for any obituaries, relatives, etceteras.

Sorry not to be of much help. It doesn't seem like he would have been mayor of Jacksonville: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mayors_of_Jacksonville,_Florida Though that doesn't mean he wasn't a mayor of a nearby town.
