Author: Rayhunting Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.griffin/6762.1.1.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: My George Andrew Jackson Griffin was born 1858 in Tennessee. His father George was born abt 1815 in Tennessee and his mother Olive Dunoway was born in SC in 1816. And his father was born in North Carolina according to the Census. Now it is possible, they didn't really know and their parents were born in SC. It is such a coincidence your Griffin is named Andrew J. Griffin. Maybe we have a common ancestor they were both named for. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

His family was said to have come from North Carolina. His father was a George Griffin born in TN. His brothers were born in NC. There were several Griffin families in Jefferson County, TN at the same time shortly after 1800's. They were married in Jefferson County, TN and them some stayed while others moved on West as land became available. I am searching diligently for the parents of this group of Griffin's. I am thinking the father was a William Griffin who was living in Jefferson County until about 1830 plus or about that time.
