    1. [NCWAYNE] Bundy family
    2. Joanne Harley
    3. I would really appreciate hearing from anyone on this list with a Bundy connection or perhaps a lead to someone who is working on this family. My ancestor's brother, (William Bundy) married a lady (Achsah Fletcher) who was attending the Contentnea MM back in the early 1800s, and they all left the area and moved to Marlboro Co., SC. I have found the brother in the early Wayne Co. census, but not my ancestor who was John Bundy. John married a lady named Susan A. or Sussanna and in their home was a lady named Sarah Graham who lived to be 107. Sure could use some help with locating John and discovering Susan's maiden name. She did name one of the sons John Albert Bundy. Is Albert a common surname in Wayne? Or it could be for the father of one of the parents. Thanks. Joanne H. NC [email protected]

    3. Hello, I'm looking for ANY information regarding the ancestors or descendants of Edward M STRICKLAND and his wife, Mary GINN. Mary was born, I believe in 1880 and died in 1915. They had seven children: Nellie Pernicy, Nina, Ethel, Roland, Hattie, Tiny, and Thelma. Seemed to live mostly in Goldsboro and Saulston areas. Ed was married at least 3 times, but no further info is known. Can anyone out there guide me as to how or where I should be looking for this family? Help! Thanks, Sue [email protected]

    3. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: {not a subscriber} few page from Jay Cook Grimes book Date: Tue, 26 Dec 2000 11:15:44 -0800 From: [email protected] To: [email protected], [email protected] Below is from the Jay Grimes book , i think he wrote this book in 1957. Good luck to all. >From Grimes, Cook & Related Families of Wayne Co., Tn. By Jay Cook Grimes " The names GRIMES or GRYMES is believed to be of Scandinavian origin and to have been derived from the ancient Ango-Saxon baptismal name of GRIM, being adopted as a surname by the sons of one so called.It is found in Ancient Brittish and early American records in the various spelling og GRIM, GRIMS, GRYMS, GRYMR, GRIME, GRYMES and GRIMES, and others, of which the form last mentioned is most generally used in America today. Families of this name were to be found at early dates in the English counties of Cambridge, Norfolk, Surrey, York, Warwick, Chester and London. Records indicate that they were, for themost paert, of the landed gentry of Great Britian. While it is not definitely known from which of the many lines of the family in Great Britian in the early immigrants of the name to America were descended, it appears from old records that bearers of the name GRYMES or GRIMES were among the earliest British Coloonists in the New World. Among the first of the name in America were JOHN and WALTER GRIMES of James City County , Virginia, in 1635. William Grimes or GRYMES of the same county in 1638; Arthur GRIMES of Charles River County, Virginia, in 1638; Samuel GRIMES of Boston, Massachusetts, before 1639: and the Rev. Charles GRYMES of York Co., Virginia, in 1644. Descendents of these and other early GRIMES immigrants to America have in the course of time spread to all parts of the country and have made relatively large contributions to the advancement of American civilization. They are in the main a hardy, energetic, shrewd, conservative and self -reliant race. Favorite names for male progeny are JOHN, WILLIAM, HENRY, CHARLES, GEORGE, BENJAMIN, JAMES, JOSEPH, THOMAS, and ROBERT. Descendants of one branch of the Rev. Charles GRIMES family are discussed in a book, " THE GRIMES FAMILY" by Mary A. GRIMES, published by Lund Press, Inc., Minneapolis, Minn. 55401, 1946. In this book it is pointed out that Lucy GRIMES, a great granddaughter of the Rev. Charles GRIMES, married Harry LEE of Virginia and became the mother of "Light Horse Harry Lee" and the grandmother of Robert E. LEE. It is also stated in this book that several descendants of the Rev. Charles GRIMES immigrated to Georgia with their slaves, soon after the Revolutionary War.. It is quite possible, though there is no proof, that some of these may have attached themselves to the small colony of white settlers from North Carolina and Virginia, , then forming around Nashville, and later moving into Maury and Wayne Counties, Tennessee. The name GRIMES appears among the first white settlers in Tennessee. James, John, and Henry GRIMES were recorded as members of the "Wautauga Settlement" formed by immigrants from Virginia and the Carolinas in the extreme northeastern part of Tenn. iN 1772. In Middle Tennessee, in what later became Montgomery County, was William GRIMES in 1778, while Frank GRIMES was recorded on Brush Creek in Robertson County in 1796. Maury County was established about 1807, and six families by the name GRIMES are listed in the U.S. Census reports for 1820 as living in this county. They were: (a) William GRIMES, over 45, who had two daughters and five sons. Three of the sons and one the daughters were between 16 and 26 years of age. One of the sons was probably WILSON (1). (b) William GRIMES, under 26, with a wife and a young daughter. (c) James GRIMES, under 26, with a wife and a young Daughter. (d) John GRIMES, over 45, with a wife and no Children. (e) John GRIMES, under 45, with a wife and six children, two biys under 10, four girls under 16. (f) John H. GRIMES, under 45, with a wife and three sons under 10. Wayne County was created by an act of Legislature in 1817 and two families, by the name of GRIMES, are listed in the 1820 census reports for this county. They are Henry GRIMES, under 45, with a wife, two grown sons, a grown daughter and seven slaves; and Isaac Gore GRIMES (403) under 45, with a wife, and one young son and one slave. Other GRIMES, who are known to have settled in Wayne County in early days, are Wilson GRIMES(my ancestor) in 1826 and John GRIMES about 1835. John GRIMES was b. in Williamson County, Tennessee, about 1814. He later settled on Mill Creek in Wayne County and in 1836 m Elizabeth STUBBLEFIELD, b 1817, in Georgia, They were the parents of the following children: Sarah, James , Robert, John,Jr., Martha, Mary, Amanda, Millard, Henry, Benjamin, and Eliza. John was a son of William and Sallie (Little) GRIMES who- according to William County, Tennessee, marriage records - were married in Williamson County, Tennessee, April 15, 1813. William came to Tennesse from South Carolina. He d. 1855. John GRIMES and Wilson GRIMES(1) though neighbors on Mill Creek were probably not related. John was a republican and was of Irish descent. Several of his sons fought in the Federal army. Wilson was a democrat and probably of English descent. His sons served in the Confederate army. Some of the John GRIMES descendents married into the HOLLINGSWORTH family. Anderson GRIMES, Luther GRIMES, and several of the HOLLINGWORTH relatives were living on Mill Creek in 1910. Luther who never married was the only son of John GRIMES, Jr., and a grandson of John GRIMES. Land records show that Henry GRIMES, above, entered land in Range eleven, Section 5, adjacent to the John L. Cook farm on Hardins Creek, and in Range eleven, Section one, adjacent to the Nathaniel F. Johnson farm." Page 102 from the Jay Cook Grimes Book.. # (403) Charlotte Latane Montague, dau of William, b March, 1793, in Granville County,N.C.
