Surnames: Grimes Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/kg.2ADI/1724 Message Board Post: Looking for more information on the Grimes family... I am most interested in a William Grimes who is the son of James Grimes (born 1750 in Ireland, died 1805 in Charleston, Charleston, South Carolina). William was born about 1795 in Charleston, South Carolina and died 5 Dec 1845 in Milton, Pike, Illinois. William was a deaf mute but supposedly had an estate settlement or will when he died in Milton. Thanks for any help you can give, Carol
