I'm looking for any documentation of the origins of Mary Griffith, b. ca. 1710 probably in Maryland, who married William Willett. References differ as to her origin, and no one seems to have much primary documentation on her. I've seen her listed as the child of George Griffith, b. late 1600's, d. 1756 in Dorchester Co. MD; others say she is the child of John and Mary (Stevens) Griffith. I don't have any further information on either George or John's family which might help narrow the search. One piece of information which would argue against the "George hypothesis" is that in George Griffith's will, 1756, his daughter Mary is still called "Mary Griffith" and not by what would be her married name of Willett -- and Mary (Griffith) Willett was married in the 1730's. This would seem to indicate that George's daughter Mary is not the Mary Griffith who married William Willett. Some sources indicate that the John Griffith who married Mary Stevens is of the William Griffith/Sarah MacCubbin line, but this seems unlikely -- there isn't enough time between William Griffith and Mary (Griffith) Willett to fit in the required number of generations. Anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm happy to send more details on any of this information if anyone's interested. cheers, Gordon Bonnet Trumansburg NY

----- Original Message ----- Gordon: My 4th gr-grandfather was John Griffith, b ca 1756 in Virginia, possibly in York County. Don't know how close that would have been to Maryland but wonder if there was a connection. Never have been able to find out who John's parents were and whether or not he had siblings. He married Anne Nancy Francis in Bourbon Co Ky, on 11 December, 1800. Good luck in your search.

Hello Judy: I have Marion P. GRIFFITH born in the Cumberland Plateau, Knox County, TN., that is all I have presently. Other info I have includes land grant record for AR. and I found him listed with his wife and six children in the 1880 McDonald Co., MO. census it notes his father as having been born in TN. and his mother in N.C. but I have found NO information regarding his parents which I would dearly love to find. Other info I have regarding him is as follows: He was the post master for McDowell, Barry Co., MO. and an "attorney" for claims for civil war pensions. I have no burial info. My great grandfather William Douglas GRIFFITH was born Jan. 1861 in MO., no dod or burial info -he married Louisa Jackson. John J. GRIFFITH was born abt. 1866 in McDowell,Barry Co., MO. no dod or burial info at this time. He married Mollie A. JONES. James M. GRIFFITH? Charles T. GRIFFITH born abt. 1870 Eugene A. GRIFFITH born abt. 1871-no dod or burial info. Odis/Odus/Odius Aquila GRIFFITH born abt. 1872 AR. died abt. 1906 he married Caroline Caldona EUBANKS. Priscilla GRIFFITH born 6 Feb 1880 McDowell, Barry Co., MO. died 26 Oct. 1959 she married Thomas M. HENSON, Jr. Perhaps this expanded info will help.

Frances, "STB " stands for 'said to be'.----Word of mouth but no documentation-(other than his marked- tombstone which is located in a church yard about 1/3 mile walking distance from the land of the original GRIFFITH farm, where Jonathan Griffith (Jr) is buried))-like so much of this genealogy stuff,STB--- There is a big GRIFFITH clan---over in the east TN area.So many of the lineage names there are similar, but I haven't found the correct connection point yet. I responded to a query from them about 2 yrs ago, they mentioned a "Peyton" GRIFFITH and an "Amos" GRIFFITH--both given names in my line.Can't recall which county that they were in,but I can look through my records and see if I can locate it.

Am looking for any info on Evan Griffith b abt 1793 NC and/or his wife, Elizabeth (maiden name unknown), b abt 1792 NC. They had children, Catherine b 1821 NC, John M. b 1827 NC, Daniel b 1833 TN, Amos b 1836 TN. This info is from the Titus County, TX 1850 census. At this time Catherine was married to John Hamilton, may have married in TN before coming to TX; John M. was married to Rachel (maiden name unknown) b 1833 TN and they had daughter, Margaret 11 mos old in 1850. Rachel's last name might have been D'Spain. There were two people, David D'Spain age 19 and Hetty D'Spain age 10 living with her and John M at that time. Might have been her bro/sis. Evan and Elizabeth were my 4th ggrandparents. Any info on this family would be appreciated. Jackie Ford

Looking for a Griffith who married Persis Colton, d.o. John Colton and Persis Bailey. Persis was born in 1839 in Crawford Co., PA. TIA Carol

Hey all. I'm looking for my great great grandmother. Her maiden name was Molly Griffin (could be Griffith). She was born in October 1874 in Ohio. Her father, name unknown, was born in New York and her mother was either born in Pennsylvania or Massachusetts. I know that Molly married Norman Hawley, making her first and last name rhyme-- Molly Hawley. They lived in Portage County, Ohio. I know that Molly had a sister named Mae (or May).

Well, one never knows. I keep hoping there will be some new person to the list who will know exactly who I'm talking about. Got a response from a guy in TN who has a lot of Griffiths in SE TN -- but his William stayed in TN until 1890. Gotta keep trying! I tried to find Sid recently, but no luck. One of the email addresses didn't bounce, but I didn't get an answer, either. I never went to Walton to look -- I had to work 5 days a week and of course the county offices are not open on the weekends. I've made some breakthroughs on other lines recently, so there's always hope. You doing ok other than the shoulder [as if that's not enough!].

HA, HA, HA, HA!!!!! Aren't we being optimistic? I'll keep my fingers crossed. Went yesterday for an MRI on my right shoulder. I have a copy of the film in the back of my car, but can't get to the doc until Monday to find out what the films show. I went to the state archives a year or so ago and found the years that Samuel Bryant served in the legislature, but haven't found anything else on him. Do you think there might be so info in Walton Co.? Did you ever go there to research? Of course, I'm right handed, fyi.

Hello -- I have a William Griffith b. 1797, probably in Georgia. One reference has him born in TN, all others in GA. He married Louisa Bryant, 1833 Walton Co., GA. Does anybody know any Griffith families living in Georgia in 1797? Any help appreciated. Kitty Johnson Corvallis, OR
