Posted on: Davidson County, NCGenWeb Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NC/Davidson/1774 Surname: Sappenfield, Grimes ------------------------- I'd appreciate hearing from you with any information you might have about Matthias Sappenfield and Elizbeth Grimes. Or for John Matthias Sappenfield III and Elizabeth Grimes. We know next to nothing. We know they were from Indiana...possibly Harrison county. Thanks much! Marsha [email protected]
Hello Marsha I've done a cut and paste and hope this all comes through cyberspace. Christena Grimes (d/o Johan Charles and Barbara Frank) was Sarah Grimes's (my ggg grandmother) sister. Their brother George also took his family to Putnam Co In abt 1833. They seemed to be circulating in Putnam Co and Parke counties. Also, their Uncle Peter & family (brother to Johan Charles Grimes) removed to Indiana.
