I am seeking information on the ancestors and descendants of Thomas Grubbs and his wife, Martha Cole Anderson Grubbs, daughter of John and Sarah Anderson. Thomas and Martha were married in Louisa County, 7 Nov. 1799. Thomas died 15 Nov 1820 in Louisa County and his will is on file there. They had 7 children: Sarah Jennings, John B., Harriet H., Frances C., MaryF., Susan A., and Thomas Anderson. Thomas Anderson Grubbs was born 8 Jan 1807 and on 17 Jun 1833, married Cecily Elizabeth Anderson in Goochland Co.. They had issue 9 children. Around 1838, they along with Martha Anderson Grubbs moved to Clarksville, TN and from there, about 1847 to Calhoun Co., AR. I believe this family had close ties to the Anderson's of Goldmine in Lousa County and with other families in the New Kent - Louisa - Hanover - Goochland area.
