NJ Queries Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NJ/Ocean/502 Surname: Evernham, Matthews, Britton, Hall, Cornelius, Phillips ------------------------- In Ocean County most of the Grants were sea captains which is why your James Grant was buried as Captain, not because of Civil War service. In the Ocean County Library in Toms River there is a book called 'Smith, Grant & Iron Families' by James W. Hook in which I am sure you will find your James Grant.
