Dear KD, My 4th great grandparents were Jacob Grove/Graff and Sarah Windle of Shenandoah. Jacob's father has been listed as Jacob Sr. of Opequon Creek. I have not been able to establish a direct link beyond Jacob Jr.'s generation. Although I was sent info about a Mathias Grove who was widowed three times and had 14 children. It was suggested that Mathias could be the father of Jacob Sr., but there were no real leads or facts about the children of Mathias and his wives. I am a little excited to see your surname is Groves and I am hoping we share a common ancestor and would love to exchange info.I have pasted a family group sheet for Jacob and Sarah at the end of this message. Looking forward to hearing from you.
