    1. Re: [GRIFFIN] Joel Walker Griffin
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: missmelbatoast21 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.griffin/2252.2.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I read this and there are many similarities with my own family history with some differences. The records I have say that the Joel Walker Griffin I am related to was born in 1812 in N.C. and that Joel Walker Griffin Jr. was born in Missouri in 1845. J.W. Griffin Jr. married a turnbull(Sarah first but when she died, he married her sister). J.W. Griffin bought the town of Tuolomne City near Modesto and the Tuolomne River where they ran a ferry. Joel Robert Griffin is the line that I came from- specifically his son Richard Griffin. Who are you related to from the line and where are you from?

    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: htichenor_1 Surnames: Garabini, Garabenia, Garobini, Hawkins, Brokaw, Tichenor, Griffini, Griffeni, Griffen Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.griffin/3847.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: You caught my attention with this one. I have been searching for a Garabini record prior to his appearance in the 1850 census in Mississippi with his family many of whom were born in NY. Many searches seem to trigger the Griffin families. Did you ever find the unindexed record you mention? Joseph Garabini came from Italy and married an American girl Mary Jane Tichenor around 1834 and had moved with his to Louisiana and Mississippi by the time of the 1850 census. He reappears alone in a deed transaction in New Jersey in the 1860s and then again in a street directory there around 1885. Otherwise he and the rest of his family vanish. His wife probably divorced had returned to New Jersey and remarried. One probable daughter appears on a ship manifest from Panama around 1859 and again in a Nevada marriage. He may have been in Panama, Puerto Rico and or California. The rest of the family may have changed their names and Griffen is a possibility. Any help would be really a! ppreciated.

Thank you. I have been meaning to post for awhile to ask everyone to try and put the location (state) in their subject titles. For those of us who are on a few lists, it is helpful to be able to weed out posts that are in locations that we are not currently researching. so, the title for this post could have been something like "GRIFFIN Margaret Elizabeth 1858-1928 Texas" thank you again for posting, it is much appreciated by many Griffin researchers, I'm sure. no need for a response, Amelia Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
