I saw that Felicia and Joy were wondering about Jesse Hunt, son of Grandison. I descend from Grandison through his son John H >William Francis>Albert Dowe>Lawrence Ross>myself. I just recently found a piece of information on Jesse and have been doing a little research on this. Jesse and Salina Jane (Smith) Hunt were in Tennessee until at least 1859 and in Arkansas by 1862 according to the births of their children. Jesse probably died between Dec 1869 and Aug of 1870. He was a civil war soldier. I have not found them in the 1860 census yet. Salina and children appear in the 1870 Sebastin Co, Ark census as well as the Cedar Co, MO census.

John Smith 30 with wife Mary A 27 were next door Apparently Jesse and Salina left McMinn Co with family of Salina. His brother John came to MO but not until 1880 and settled in Laclede County. I corresponded with Clara about Grandison. She was a grand lady and as much as she did, I wish that some sort of proof or more clues pointed to Grandison's line. As much as I would like to, I still don't think we have enough evidence to point to his lineage. I hope this clears up where Jesse went. I'm still working on it and all of my notes are a mess right now but it should give you a general idea of his life. Any clues on this Grandison family is very welcomed!!!!!!!!
