Any connection to Hezekiah Griffis b 1780 NY d bef 1831 Gallia Co OH (father was also Hezekiah bc 1755)? They lived in both NY and PA areas. Hezekiah b 1780 mar Betsy Sabin in Apr 1801 in Wyalusing, PA. They migrated to OH about 1820s and had one son that I know of , Sabin Griffis. Many of our Sabin's moved on to Boone Co IL in 1856 and Marshall Co KS in 1869. They homesteaded in Wells Twp. in Marshall Co, attended the church in Bigelow, and are also buried in Antioch Cem. Interesting... just wondering if you might have run across any of this info in your search.
