(This is the area that became Washington County, AL). Samuel Griffin Sr is listed as 76 years of age and Mrs. Griffin is listed as 61. They have one child left at home. (This child should be William Griffin) Son James Griffin is listed as 29 and Mrs. Griffin as 24. They have 5 children left at home. This leads me to believe that Samuel Griffin was b. around 1720 and Elizabeth around 1735, which is a little different from what everyone keeps telling me. I have also heard Richard and Mary Green Griffin might be parents of Samuel, but I am very skeptical because of timeline of their Samuel.
