Griffin 60 male - born abt 1790 in N.C. Likely that H. is Henry. >Eda Griffin 58 female - born abt 1792 in N.C. I find marriage records, 5 Dec 1810, Cumberland N.C., that point to _Edy_ Utley as being H. Griffin's spouse. Her parents are perhaps William Utley, Jr. b. 1750 and Dorcas Allen b. 7 Jul 1751 Cumberland, N.C. >Thomas Griffin 18 male - born abt 1832 in Tenn An enigma, still no real solid info. > C.J. Griffin 17 female - born abt 1833 in Tenn. Celia J. Griffin marries James A. Wright, eldest son of Cyrus & Sarah Wright - where R.L. & S.J. Griffin are living in 1850 census. >D.J. Griffin 12 male - born abt 1838 in Ill. Enigma 2. Could possibly be L.J., or S.J. >living "around the corner" from the >Cyrus & Sarah Wright family that >includes R.L. (Richard Lawrence) Griffin Now pretty certain that R.L. is another of H. Griffin's sons, recently married to S.J. Wright (have marriage record - 12 Sep 1850) and living with the Wright's for the 1850 census. And reasonably certain that S.J. Wright who married L.R. would be Cyrus and Sarah Wright's eldest daughter. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
