THOMAS GRAVES

1645 Settler of Hartford, Connecticut and

Hatfield, Massachusetts

and His Descendants

GENERATION 1

Thomas Graves (1) was born before 1585 in England, and died Nov. 1662. He married Sarah ‑‑‑‑‑‑. She died about four years after he did.

[According to Mrs. Ruth E. Richardson, Mrs. Clara M. Turner, and other sources (although not verified by this author), Thomas was from Gravesend, Kent Co., England, and came to America with Gov. Endicott's Company. He was a member of the Council, on the committee to lay out the town of Woburn, Mass., and one of the first town officers there. His wife's name was Sarah Whiting, and she, 5 children and 2 servants came with him and settled in New Haven, Conn. first, then Hartford. He was one of the founders of Hadley, Mass. in 1645. They came to America on the George Bonaventure which arrived in Salem, Mass. in 1629. Sarah died 17 Dec. 1666.[1]]

The first official record of the family in this country was at Hartford, Conn. in 1645, when the family was located there. Thomas owned three separate pieces of real estate there, one described as being the one "whereon his house standeth." Isaac also took up his residence in Hartford and had land there. John took up his residence in Wethersfield, the adjoining town, and it is probable that the three homes were not far apart. The lands granted to John in 1652 were described as those "whereon his house standeth." Nathaniel also settled in Wethersfield, where he married in 1655.

The family remained together as far as it is known until the removal to Hatfield, Mass. The son Samuel never married, and probably did not live to accompany the rest at the time of removal. The family to which Nathaniel's wife belonged lived near him and were largely interested in lands there, and for the sake of remaining near his wife's relations, Nathaniel did not move with the rest of the family to Hatfield.

The family at Hartford and Wethersfield occupied a prominent position and took active part in political and religious matters. They served on juries, acted as surveyors and fence viewers, ran boundary lines between towns, and generally filled those places that stalwart, intelligent and respected citizens usually are called upon to fill. The exception was that Thomas was exempted from "training, watching, and warding" because he was over sixty, which was the age limit for that kind of service.

From all that can be learned, the family was prospering at Hartford as well as any family could in a new country. There must have been some strong reason that would induce them to give up their lands and houses and enter upon a new life in an undeveloped country and suffer the hardships incident to the undertaking, and we find it in the strong religious convictions that impelled the early settlers in this country.

A schism had arisen in the church at Hartford and Wethersfield, and the dissenters from the views entertained by the majority concluded to break away from their homes and found a settlement where their views would prevail.

We find it extremely difficult to express our appreciation of the characteristics of the noble old head of this family, Thomas Graves. His modesty, together with the lapse of time, prevents us from mentioning many things about his daily life that make biography so entertaining. We are therefore compelled to speak of and delineate those qualities of heart and mind that become apparent to us from the standpoint of his well-known ideas upon religious matters, in fact his close adherence to what we now too often stigmatize as puritanism. It, however, hardly becomes us of the present to criticize too closely the views entertained by that noble band of men who held so lovingly to their theories that no conditions or inducements would make them swerve from their conscientious views of the requirements of duty. It was really tantamount to an express "thus saith the Lord" to them, for this was in many instances the cause of their leaving their homes and personal friends in England, and coming to our land that they might enjoy that freedom to worship God in what they deemed the only true way. And so when we find schismatic views of church polity were being advocated, that they deemed destructive to the church of God, we find them again ready to leave their pleasant surroundings in Hartford and seek new homes away on the frontier of civilized life.

Perhaps we shall be excused if we here state briefly the cause of the removal to Hatfield, Mass. A practice had grown up in the churches of allowing persons who had been baptized, if not of a "scandalous character," to consent to the covenant, and this permitted them to have the sacrament of baptism administered to their infant children. On this question hot discussions were held, as well as on some others of minor importance. It was upon this division of sentiment that our ancestors determined to move to Hatfield, animated by what they supposed was their bounden duty. Yet we cannot but be satisfied that these pioneers knew that in their new undertaking they were to enter upon pleasant places. They selected the beautiful and fertile lands of the valley of the Connecticut for their new home, which have more than fulfilled the most ardent expectations of the settlers.

But notwithstanding the advanced age of Thomas Graves, we find him a promoter and organizer in this new country. They left their houses and lands in Hartford and Wethersfield unsold, and uniting themselves in a band of daring emigrants, started for their new home with wives and children. Their household effects were loaded on carts drawn by oxen, and they took with them their domestic animals. The determined cavalcade started out for their new homes. It was not far from the middle of September 1661. The journey, of not over fifty miles, occupied about ten days. Creeks and brooks had to be crossed, swamps and morasses had to be avoided or crossed as best they could be. They reached their destination about the first of October 1661.

Exposed to all the dangers incident to a frontier settlement, amid the habitations of wild beasts and wilder men, the Indians, who lived in their immediate vicinity, and had a fort and village only about two miles from where the settlement was made. Foremost among these hardy emigrants were Thomas Graves, with his aged wife, and his two stalwart sons, Isaac and John, with their wives and families of five children each. And now we find them without a house or place to lay their heads and winter approaching rapidly. They at once set to work to provide homes for their families and barns for their animals. There were no saw mills to manufacture the lumber, and the only method of sawing planks or boards was by making a pit, and by using the cross-cut saw, with one man on the top of the log, and one man in the pit. In this way a few boards were made that would serve for tables and doors. The logs were speedily shaped into convenient homes for the accomodation of these brave people.

Thomas Graves was now an aged yet honored member of this community, and from this time forward lived with the family of his son Isaac. He was then past his 76th birthday. He remained, with his wife, in Isaac's family until his death in November 1662, a little more than a year from the time of their moving to their new home.

It is very probable that a few of these settlers at Hatfield had located there before the general removal. A committee had been appointed Jan. 1, 1661, to lay out house lots in Hatfield, and it appears that Richard Fellows was there early in 1661. It is quite probable that each engager knew the number of his house lot. Thomas Graves was not assigned any lands, but was counted in with Isaac, his oldest son, whose estate was thus increased to 150 pounds, while his brother John's was voted at 100 pounds. This did not affect the size or location of their respective house lots, as they were contiguous, but did in the division of common lands. After the death of Thomas Graves, his son Isaac administered upon his estate in Massachusetts, while his son Nathaniel performed the same service upon his estate in Connecticut. His wife, Sarah, survived him for four years, and Isaac administered upon her estate. A very curious inventory of her effects is spread upon the probate records at Northampton. Views of the lots on which Thomas and his son Isaac located their house in Hatfield and the lot on which John placed his new home there, together with general views of the beautiful village of Hatfield, which the settlers had shown so much wisdom in selecting, appeared as illustrations in the 1896 book by John Card Graves (R‑200).

All the children of Thomas were born in England, and were all of mature age when they came to this country, the youngest of the sons being about 16 years old. There may only have been one daughter, rather than the two listed below. (R‑200, R‑206)

GENERATION 2

CHILDREN OF THOMAS GRAVES (1) AND SARAH ‑‑‑‑‑‑

Isaac Graves (2) was born probably as early as 1620 in England, and died 19 Sept. 1677, killed in an Indian attack on the Hatfield settlement. He married Mary Church, daughter of Richard and Anna Church. She came from England in 1637, and died 9 June 1695.

He came to New England with his father and settled in Hartford, Conn. before 1645. He was made freeman at General Court, Boston, Mass. 16 May 1669, was Sergeant in the Colonial Militia, and Clerk of the Writs for Hatfield, to which he moved in 1661. He was a prominent man in his time, and one of the representatives of that portion of Hadley (later Hatfield) who appeared before the General Court at Boston in favor of separate church and town rights for Hatfield.

Isaac was a carpenter, and was a resident of Wethersfield, Conn. before 1645. He "keyed down" Goffe's Bridge in Wethersfield in 1648.

During the continuance of what is usually called "King Philip's War", the inhabitants of these isolated frontier towns were naturally filled with forebodings of danger to their homes and families. For their own protection and safety, the inhabitants of Northampton, Hadley and Hatfield practically united for mutual defense and assistance. These three town were occupied by troops from the eastern portion of the Colony of Massachusetts Bay. At Northampton 26 soldiers were located, at Hadley 30, and at Hatfield 36. This was the most exposed, as it was the frontier town. Then they had a committee, called a council of war, chosen from the several towns. Among the members was Sergeant Isaac Graves. The object of this council of war was to provide better security to the inhabitants of the several towns. They counselled with the commander, Major Appleton, relative to the ways and means best to be used for the protection of life and property.

On August 25, 1675, a scouting party of ten was sent out and fell into an ambuscade, and nine were killed. Then on the 17th of September, Captain Lathrop and his company and several teamsters from Deerfield were attacked and massacred. Only a few escaped. Sixty-four were buried in one grave as the result of the "Bloody Brook" fight. Seventeen of the sixty-four were Deerfield men. In consequence of the numerous attacks by the Indians, the people, to better protect themselves, built a stockade, probably in the atumn of 1675, composed of posts of timber set in the ground, and about ten feet high. This stockade was built on both sides of Main Street, some twelve or fifteen rods from the east and west lines of the street, extending north from the Northampton road, not far from 100 rods. This stockade enclosed the bulk of the village. The houses of Isaac and John Graves were within the stockade. Unfortunately for them, on September 19, 1677, they were both employed in building a house for John Graves, Jr., about half a mile above the northerly end of the stockade, on a lot adjoining that of Sergeant Benjamin Waite. Without any warning or thought of danger, they were attacked by the Indians, and Isaac and John were shot down while engaged, as one tradition has it, "in laying shingles on the roof of the house," and with them were likewise two other men who were working with them, John Atchinson and John Cooper. Eight others were killed, and we presume scalped, as the account speaks of them as being disfigured, and seventeen were made prisoners. All but one, Obadiah Dickinson, were women and children.

In the early vital records of Hartford, Conn., the first 4 children of Isaac are given as being born there - Mary on 5 July 1647, Isaac on 21 Aug. 1650, Rebecca on 3 July 1652, and Samuel on 5 Oct. 1655. (R‑200)

Children - Graves

8. Mary Graves, b. 5 July 1647, m. Eleazer Frary, 28 Jan. 1665. It was previously believed that this Mary Graves m(2) Joseph Haskell. However, it is much more likely that the Mary Graves who married Joseph Haskell was a daughter of Mark Graves and Amy ‑‑‑‑‑‑ and a granddaughter of immigrant Samuel Graves of Lynn, MA (genealogy 83).

9. Isaac Graves, b. 22 (or 21) Aug. 1650, never married, d. before 1677.

John Graves (3) was born about 1622 in England, and died 19 Sept. 1677. He first married Mary Smith of Wethersfield, daughter of Lieut. Samuel Smith and Elizabeth Chileab, probably about 1652. She was born about 1630 in England, and died 16 Dec. 1668 (or 1665) in Hatfield, Mass. She came from Ipswich Co., Suffolk, England to Watertown, Mass. in 1634.

He secondly married Mary Wyatt of Haddam, Conn., daughter of John Bronson, and widow of John Wyatt of Haddam, probably on 20 July 1671. (Either the date of his first wife's death is too early or the date of his marriage to his second wife is too late, since his last child was born between these two dates.) Mary thirdly married Lt. Willis Allis in 1678. She married Samuel Gaylord as her fourth husband on 16 March 1681.

John Graves owned land in Hartford and Wethersfield, which he retained when he moved to Hatfield, Mass. in 1661. He was a man of probity and education, and was employed in 1655 and again in 1659 to run the boundary line between Wethersfield and Mattabessett (now Middletown). He exchanged land with John Goodrich about 1645. He bought the land of John Coultmans and also that of Gregory Gibbs.

He and his brother, Sergeant Isaac Graves, were killed by Indians in an attack on Hatfield, 19 Sept. 1677. After his death, his widow thirdly married Lieut. William Allis on 25 June 1678. She fourthly married Samuel Gaylord.

John's first five children were born in Wethersfield, Conn. and his last five children were born in Hatfield, Mass. (R‑1, R‑200)

Nathaniel Graves (5) was born about 1629 in England, and died 28 Sept. 1682 at Wethersfield, Conn. He married Martha Betts, daughter of John and Mary Betts, on 16 Jan. 1655. She was born in 1625 in England, and died 13 April 1701. He settled in Wethersfield and was made a freeman there 21 May 1657, was surveyor there in 1661, a fence viewer in 1669, and drew lands in 1670. He had a homestead on the east side of Broad Street, Wethersfield, in 1659. In 1662, John Betts of Wethersfield conveyed to him 23 acres of land, and in the deed calls him "his brother." Nathaniel settled the estate of his father in Conn. ("House lot of 3 acres whereon he liveth," and other lands granted to him in Wethersfield) between 1645 and 1652. The inventory of Nathaniel's estate, dated 30 Oct. 1682, amounted to 439 pounds, 2 s., 2 d. (R‑200)

33. Abigail Graves, b. 15 Oct. 1669, m. Ebenezer Belden (son of John and Lydia Belden or Belding).

Mary Graves (7) was born in England. She married Moses Ventrous (or Ventris or Ventres) on 14 Jan. 1646/7 in Hartford, Conn. There is some uncertainty about Mary's name, and even whether she is a Graves. The Hartford Times, 18 July 1966 states: Moses Ventrous married Grace ‑‑‑‑‑‑ on 14 Jan. 1647. A marriage record at Hartford states the same thing.

Judd's History of Hatfield, Mass. says Moses Ventrous married 14 Jan. 1647 Mary Graves, daughter of Thomas Graves who married Sarah ‑‑‑‑‑‑. Another source mentions a possible daughter of Thomas Graves named Mary or Elizabeth.

A note from the Gates-Dawes Memorial says Moses, William and Elizabeth Ventrous were probably children of William Ventrous.

Moses Ventrous was born about 1625 in Farmington, Conn. His will was dated 1693, and the inventory of his estate was dated 12 April 1697 in Hartford, Conn. (R‑3)

She was born 24 Feb. 1652, and died 11 July 1689. He secondly married Deliverance ‑‑‑‑‑‑, possibly on 1 Jan. 1690 in Hartford (although this raises a question about the birthdate of Elizabeth, born 8 Nov. 1689.) On 8 Feb. 1678, he took an oath of allegiance at Hatfield. After his death, Deliverance secondly married Isaac Graves (#20). They lived in Hatfield. (R‑200)

Samuel Graves (21) was born about 1657 at Wethersfield, Conn., and died 11 March 1731 (or 15 Oct. 1734) in Sunderland, Mass. He married Sarah ‑‑‑‑‑‑ on 30 Oct. 1678. She died 15 Oct. 1734. He moved from Hatfield, Mass. to Sunderland about 1725, and was one of the first 40 settlers in Sunderland. All their children were born in Hatfield.

It was previously incorrectly stated that this Samuel Graves married Sarah Colton, daughter of George Colton of Longmeadow, MA and Lydia (Wright) Graves. However (as reported in Graves Family Newsletter, 1993, page 127), information from New England Marriages Prior to 1700 by Clarence Ammon Torrey shows that this is not correct. The Samuel Graves who married Sarah Colton was #11, son of Isaac Graves and Mary Church. (R‑200, R‑206)

CHILDREN OF SAMUEL GRAVES (11)

Joseph Graves (40) was born 16 Nov. 1685 and died 22 April 1728. He married Bridget Scott, daughter of Edward Scott, on 25 Jan. 1717. She died 1746. (R‑200)

115. Elizabeth Graves, b. 14 May 1721, m. Timothy Cole, 11 Sept. 1777 (as his second wife).

Thomas Graves (43) was born 21 Nov. (or 22 Oct.) 1690 in Hatfield, Mass., and died about 1 Jan. 1713/14. He died sometime between 11 Dec. 1713, the date of his will, and 5 Jan. 1713/14, the date his widow exhibited an inventory of her husband's estate. His will named his wife and only child.

He married Sarah Morgan, daughter of Thomas Morgan and Rachel Merry. She was baptized 24 May 1696 in Hartford, Conn., and died 3 May 1718. She died before completing the final accounting of Thomas Graves' estate. As a result of Sarah's death, Thomas Morgan (her father) was appointed legal guardian of Deliverance Graves, a minor (Early Connecticut Probate Records, Hartford District, 1635-1750, II, p. 209; original records, vol. IX, p. 78). Sarah secondly married Jobannah Smith on 26 Sept. 1714.

In previous publications (including John Card Graves, Genealogy of the Graves Family in America, vol. 1; and Lucius Boltwood, Genealogies of Hadley Families), this Thomas Graves and his second cousin, son of John Graves and Sarah White, were confused. Lucius Boltwood incorrectly assumed that the records of Thomas, son of John, belonged to Thomas, son of Samuel. It was Thomas, son of John, who married Lydia Graves and later moved to Belchertown, where he died.

The age of Boltwood's Thomas at death (Hadley Genealogy, p. 60, #12) does not agree with the birthdate of Thomas, the son of Samuel, as it should if Boltwood's assumption were valid. It does agree, however, with the birthdate of Thomas, son of John.

Another indication of Boltwood's error is that the Thomas, who moved to Belchertown, sold Hatfield land that came to him originally from John Graves (Hampshire Co. land records). The children of the Belchertown Thomas were named John and Lydia, probably named for Thomas' father and wife. Finally, Thomas, son of John, was alive in Jan. 1730/31, when the will of his father John was proved. Thomas, son of Samuel, had died about 1 Jan. 1713/14.

Deliverance, daughter of Thomas and Sarah, may have been named for her grandmother Deliverance, wife of Samuel Graves. (R‑200, R‑205)

542. Prudence Graves, b. 20 July 1766.

Jesse Graves (230) was born 7 March 1730 in Sunderland, Mass. (Sunderland town records), and died before Oct. 1777 as a British prisoner of war at Ft. Ticonderoga, Essex Co., N.Y. (pension record of son Nathaniel). He married Catherine Scott, daughter of Samuel Scott and Elizabeth ‑‑‑‑‑‑, on 3 May 1754 in Sunderland. She was born 19 May 1737 in Sunderland (town records), and died before 1777 (?) in Rupert, Vt. (?) (pension record of son Nathaniel).

They lived in Sunderland until about 1768, and then moved to Bennington, Vt. Jesse Graves appeared on a list of the estates and inhabitants of Sunderland, Mass., 11 July 1763; mentioned in description of highway laid out, 12 March 1767, in Sunderland. He appeared on a Bennington, Vt. petition to the Governor of New Hampshire, dated Oct. 1769. Catherine Scott's brothers, Samuel, Oliver, Phineas and Moses, had moved to Bennington, Vt., in 1762. Oliver Scott was one of the first settlers of Rupert, Vt. in 1767. Rupert town records of the town meeting of 4 April 1780: "this meeting has confirmed to Phineas Sheldon that of land which Oliver Scott gave to Jesse Graves as a freeman of that town in 1778." There is no trace of this transaction in Rupert land records, however. A "Resolution in Re Petition of Nicholas Turner," dated 16 Oct. 1778: "On petition of Nicholas Turner late of Reuport in Bennington County ... Resolved ... give a Deed to said Turner ... a certain lot of land ... West on land holden by the heirs of Jesse Graves deceased...."

The Revolutionary War pension application of his son Nathaniel Graves stated: "That in the summer of 1777, he resided in the town of Ruport in the state of Vermont with his brother and three sisters (his mother being dead some years before) and his father went into the service in the forepart of the season on the approach of Burgoyne's Army and was in the battle of Hubbardton, Vermont where the Americans were defeated by a detachment of Burgoyne's Army and Col. Warner's Regiment north cut off and his father was taken a prisoner by the British and carried to Ticonderoga where he was taken sick and died, and that this declarent with his brother two years older than himself and his three sisters retreated from Ruport aforesaid on the general alarms and retreat of the inhabitants of Vermont immediately after 'Hubbardton battle' and were scattered among their relatives and friends in the town of Bennington, Vt. where he lived during the war except out in service." No records seem to exist showing the militia who fought at the battle of Hubbardton. The Graves children apparently did not seek any compensation from the towns of Rupert or Bennington, nor the state of Vermont. No probate of estate seems to exist.

Jesse Graves also appeared as a freeman in the town records of Manchester, Vt., probably in 1777 (records are virtually unreadable). No record of the birth of Nathaniel appeared in Sunderland town records nor of a younger (?) sister, but both were probably born there. Rupert, Vt. town records are nonexistant before 1780 (the Tory town clerk took them when he left town). No further record of Jesse Graves appeared in the Rupert, Bennington, or Manchester town records after 1780.

It appears that John Card Graves (R‑200) confused two different Jesse Graveses and made one family out of two. According to John Card Graves, Jesse secondly married Martha ‑‑‑‑‑‑, who died 6 May 1801 in Charlemont, Mass., and thirdly married widow Elizabeth ("Betsey") Lathrop of Montague, Mass., 27 May 1802 in Montague. Elizabeth died 6 Feb. 1828 in Charlemont at age 59, and Jesse died 14 Jan. 1819 in Charlemont, Mass. A Jesse Graves tombstone in the Charlemont cemetery shows this death date but gives his age as 61, indicating a birth date of about 1758 rather than 1730. It is not known at this time who this other Jesse Graves was who married Martha and then later married Elizabeth Lathrop.

The Revolutionary War pension papers of William Graves say, "He was born in Sunderland, Massachusetts the 2 Decem 1760." His papers also say, "In 1778 he lived in Rupert, Vermont.... Since the Revolutionary War he has lived entirely in Castleton and West Haven." Although there is no absolute proof, the most likely person listed in the Sunderland records as being William Graves is Billy Graves, son of Jesse and Catherine Scott Graves, born 2 Sept. 1760. The published records say, "Billy died young," but no official record of his death has been found.

Two interesting deeds are the following: (1) Record of Nathaniel and William Graves deed from Simeon Sears, ".... by Nathaniel Graves of said town and state (Bennington, Vt.) and William Graves otherwise Bill Graves of Ruport ...." Joseph Holmes was the original grantee. (2) Record of Simon Graves deed from William and Nathaniel Graves, Aug. 2, 1783. ".... William Graves of Castleton ... and Nathaniel Graves of Bennington ....," dated 27 Sept. 1789. The description of the land is identical to the description for the land in the first deed. These two deeds indicate the good possibility of Nathaniel and William (Bill) being brothers.

Another piece of evidence is that William named his first son Jesse (possibly after his own father); his second son was Israel (after his wife's father); his third son was Nathaniel (after his brother?); and his fourth son was Oliver (after his mother's father or brother?).

The birth records in Sunderland, Mass. for Jemima, Zilpah and Billy show them listed in consecutive order, which indicates they were all recorded at one time. No other children are listed for Jesse and Catherine Graves, which indicates: (1) they didn't have more, (2) they didn't bother to record them, or (3) they had already left for Vermont when more children were born. The third possibility seems most likely, especially considering that the early records for Rupert were lost. (R‑24, R‑46)

Zenas Graves (284) was born 28 Jan. 1752 at Westfield, Mass., and died in 1820 at Cambridge, Dearborn Co., IN. He married Hannah (possibly Franklin[2]) in 1776. She died in Cambridge, Dearborn Co., IN. He was in the Rev. Army in Capt. Silas Fowler's Co., and served as a fifer with the Minute Men in 1775. They lived in Sunderland, Mass., where their first two children were born. They then moved to Vermont near Wells in Rutland Co., near the border with N.Y. state.

It was probably after 1808 (possibly as late as 1810-1815) that Zenas Graves started west with his sons, Franklin Ward, Horace, and probably also Larantus. They went down through the state of New York until they came to the headwaters of the Ohio River. At that point, they built flat boats on which they floated down the river to Kentucky.

They stopped for a while in Kentucky before moving on to Cincinnati, Ohio. From Cincinnati, they went over into Dearborn Co., Ind. Zenas moved to a little place known as Cambridge or Pella, a few miles from Lawrenceburg. He and his wife were buried there in a cemetery now deserted, of which there are no records and where no headstones exist.

Descendants of Franklin Ward Graves, son of Zenas, said they were told that Franklin was his mother's maiden name.

Zenas' oldest child Horace named his sons after his brothers. Thus, there was a Franklin Ward Graves, Jr., who was the son of Horace Graves. The Graves of the Donner party of 1846 were the family of F. W., Sr.

Unfortunately, there is some confusion today about exactly how many children Zenas had, and what happened to them all. By most accounts, in addition to Horace, Rachel, William and Franklin Ward, he had a son Larantus who was also called Rantus.

There is a Francis Graves buried on the William Graves lot in the Caledonia Cem. in Putnam Co., Ill. This is presumed to be Larantus. (R‑48, R‑64, R‑84, R‑200)

He died 30 May 1841 in Essex Co., N.Y., possibly in Ticonderoga. He married Jerusha Hurlburt, daughter of Israel Hurlburt and Jerusha ‑‑‑‑‑‑, on 5 Aug. 1784 in Castleton, Rutland Co., Vt. (town records). She was born 5 Jan. 1768, probably in Canaan, Conn., and probably died before 1820 in West Haven, Rutland Co., Vt. According to History of Woodbury, Ct., the Castleton town records show that Israel Hurlburt deeded land to Jerusha Graves.

William Graves enlisted in the Revolutionary Army from Rupert, Vt. in 1778, and served 2 months. He enlisted again in the spring of 1779, and served 9-10 months. He enlisted a third time on 1 Feb. 1780 and served 10 months at Castleton and Pittsford forts and scouted on the borders, and again enlisted on 1 Feb. 1781 and served 10 months at Castleton, Vt., where he was discharged.

He bought land in Rupert, Vt., in Aug. 1783, with Nathaniel Graves. The land deed referred to: "... and William Graves otherwise Bill Graves of Ruport... Confirm to them the said Nathaniel Graves and Bill Graves...." The deed to Simon Graves from William and Nathaniel Graves stated: ".... William Graves of Castletown in the County of Rutland and Nathaniel Graves of Bennington...." This land was sold in 1789 to their cousin, Simeon Graves.

William Graves moved to Castleton, Vt. about 1784-5, where the Graves family lived until late 1810-11, when he moved to West Haven, Vt. He lived there until after the death of his wife, according to pension records, when he moved to Ticonderoga, N.Y. to live with his son Oliver in June 1837. William appeared on lists of voters of Castleton, Vt. from 1795 to 1810. The first 8 children were born in Castleton, Rutland Co., Vt., and the last two were probably born in West Haven, Rutland Co., Vt. (R‑24, R‑46)

He married before 1790, but no record of the marriage has been found in Bennington, Rupert, or Manchester, Vt. His wife died 29 Aug. 1848. They were both buried in the Valley Cem., near Albion, Erie Co., PA, and their dates of death are from their gravestones.

According to his pension application, Nathaniel served with the army for 1 month in the fall of 1778, 1 month in the fall of 1779, half a month in July 1780, 1 month in the fall of 1780, 2 months in the fall of 1781, and 2 months in the fall of 1782.

She was born about 1760, probably in Blount Co., Tenn., and died after 1820 in Blount Co. or Monroe Co., Tenn.

Stephen enlisted in Massachusetts in 1776 or the spring of 1777 for a term of 5 years. He served as a drummer in Capt. Lillie's and Capt. Harris's Co., Col. Knox Regt. of Artillery, in the American Revolution. He was in the battles of Skinesborough, Stillwater, and Saratoga, and present at the surrender of Burgoyne after Gen. Wayne took Stone Point in 1779. He marched to that place and was taken prisoner by the British, and taken on a sloop to Charleston, S.C., where he was kept prisoner until the end of the Revolution. He never returned to Massachusetts. (Another version is that in 1780, with two friends, he went on furlough to Boston, was captured by the British and taken on the Sloop of War Vulture to the harbor of Charleston, S.C., where he was recaptured by an American privateer. After the ship made a tour, he was released in Charleston about 1783-84. Meanwhile, he was listed as a deserter from the Army in Mass. in 1780.)

Stephen paid poll tax and owned 50 acres of land in 1800 in Blount Co., Tenn. With sons William and Adam he served as a drum major in the War of 1812.

He was allowed a pension on his application executed July 1, 1818, at which time he was 59 years old and residing in Blount Co., Tenn. "State of Tenn., Co. of Blount, Sept. 25, 1820, appeared Stephen Graves, age 61, a resident of said county, that he served in the Revolution, has no income from other than that which is in the schedule contained hereto annexed. 1 mare 2 years old, 1 calf 1 year old, 1 sow, 3 pigs, 1 note for $40.00 John Black involvent (?), 1 note for $50 on John V. Hynes a desperate debt. I owe $60 and $65 in all. I am a farmer by occupation, but I have no land to cultivate and if I did my age and infirmity is so great that I could not support myself. My family consists of myself and my wife Jenny, age about 60. I believe she is as stout (?) as perhaps any at her age could be who has a family and is in moderate circumstances. Stephen Graves."

Stephen sold his land to Adam, his son, and was living with him in 1820. All his children were probably born in Blount Co., Tenn. (R‑17, R‑21)

CHILDREN OF ZENAS GRAVES (284) AND HANNAH ‑‑‑‑‑‑

Horace Graves (659) was born 20 April 1777 in Sunderland, MA, and died in 1863 in Versailles, Ripley Co., IN. He married Lucretia Reynolds[5] on 25 Feb. 1801. She was born 13 Dec. 1786 in VT, and died 11 Aug. 1877.

He moved with his father from Sunderland, Mass. to Troy, N.Y. about 1780, and later went to Indiana, where he remained[6]. One account says he went to Indiana with his two brothers, but he may have moved there before them. His two brothers went from there to Pawnee, Sangamon Co., Ill., near Springfield. Later these two brothers went on to Putnam Co., Ill, where William Graves bought land and made his home. Horace Graves was still living in the southern part of Indiana in 1848 when his nephew William Graves, son of Franklin Ward Graves, visited him before returning to California. Horace and Lucretia were in the 1850 census for Johnson Twp., Ripley Co., IN, with their daughter Eliza living with them. They were in the 1860 census for Johnson Twp., Ripley Co., IN, living with their daughter Eliza and her husband, William Colston. Horace was a farmer.

Horace supposedly named his sons after his brothers. (R‑48, R‑64, R‑84)

William Graves (661) was born about 1781 in Troy, N.Y., died 10 Oct. 1856[7] in Magnolia (or Lostant), Ill., at the age of 75 years, 5 months, 21 days, and was buried in the Caledonia Cem. near Magnolia, Putnam Co., Ill. He married Mirium (or Mariam[8]) Howe of Wells, Rutland Co., Vt., on 29 Sept. 1806 in Wells. She was born 25 Aug. 1781, and died 17 March 1882 at the age of 100 years, 6 months, 20 days, at the home of her son, Horace Graves, west of Lostant, Hope Twp., LaSalle Co., Ill., and was also buried in the Caledonia Cem.[9]

From Wells, Vt., they moved to Troy, N.Y., where their oldest son was born in 1808. In 1815, they were in Gettysburg, Pa., where their third child, Horace, was born. In 1819, they were in Ontario Co., N.Y., when another son, William, was born.

In 1820 (or possibly 1822), they moved to Pawnee, Sangamon Co., Ill., near Springfield. One account says that they moved with at least two of William's brothers. William was only reported to have three brothers; by some reports, those three had moved with their father, Zenas, to Indiana. Whatever the case, they are reported to have stopped in southern Indiana on their way to Illinois. There they visited William's brother, Horace, who lived in Ripley Co., Ind., about 12 miles from the Ohio River.

One account says they remained in Sangamon Co., Ill. for 12 years. They then moved to Putnam Co., Ill., where William died. (R‑48, R‑64, R‑212)

Franklin Ward Graves (663) was born in Wells, Rutland Co., VT, in sight of the Green Mountains, and died 25 Dec. 1846, west of Donner Pass, CA, in the Sierra Nevada mountains. He moved with his father to Indiana, probably between 1808 and 1815. He left Indiana after 1826 and moved to Mississippi; his son, William Cooper Graves, was born there in 1829. Around 1831, he joined his brothers in Illinois. He married Elizabeth Cooper, known as "Betty" or "Betsy." She was born 10 Oct. 1800, possibly in IN, and died 5 March 1847 in "Starved Camp", west of Donner Pass. Her parents were William Cooper, born 12 Oct. 1773, disappeared, and Eleanor Magee, born 4 June 1772 (daughter of Peter Magee and Nancy ‑‑‑‑‑‑).

He served in the infantry during the Black Hawk War. He was a genuine backwoodsman and pioneer who despised the trammels of civilization. His most congenial associations were on the frontier. He was a man of large frame, good natured, hospitable, and ever ready to do a kindness. He was more hunter than farmer. However, he secured a large tract of land and opened up a considerable farm upon the bottoms. This may be the land he bought from the Indians, where the town of Sparland, Marshall Co., Ill., now stands.

In the spring of 1846, he sold his land to move to California. He died of starvation and exposure before dawn on Christmas day, 1846, in the Sierra Nevada mountains someplace west of what is now called Donner Pass, as part of the ill-fated Donner Party. The date and place of death are from the book, Ordeal by Hunger, by George R. Stewart, 1960, pp. 102-103. (This account is more accurate and complete than the previous standard, The History of the Donner Party, C. F. McGlashan, 1880.)

According to Martha A. Morris, mother of Esther M. Nielsen (R‑65), two of the daughters of the Graves family survived, were captured by the Indians but later rescued, and went on to California where they married and had children. Bessie Humphrey Greene who was writing a history of the Graves family in the 1930's is probably a granddaughter or great-granddaughter of one of these survivors. A son, William Graves, was known to have survived and returned to Illinois, two years after reaching California. From Illinois he went to Indiana to visit his uncle, Horace Graves, and from there he went back to California as a guide for a wagon train. This story of the Graves family is given in History of Marshall, Putnam Co. as "The Graves Tragedy." The History of the Donner Party, previously mentioned, lists the names of those who perished and those who got through to California, and who they married. (R‑64, R‑84)

In 1878 Mrs. Graves became a member of the Center church by letter from the Congregational church in Lee, and was one of its oldest communicants.

She was a descendant of a notable line of Massachusetts ancestry, including the Rev. Peter Bulkeley, D.D. of Concord, the Rev. Anthony Thatcher of Cape Cod, through Col. John, Col. John, Jr., the Rev. Roland and Timothy Thatcher, Josiah Winslow, John Tilly and John Howland of the Mayflower, the Rev. Charles Chauncey, D.D., Gov. Thomas Hinckley, Thomas Richards, Thomas Bourne, and William Pynchon, the founder of Springfield, William Phelps, Edward Griswold and John Drake, founders of Windsor, and the Hosmer, Bushnell and Post families of Saybrook.

Mrs. Graves was a woman of great personal worth, and devoted through life to her family. She was possessed of the sunniest of dispositions and left nothing unattempted that could add to the happiness of others.

She leaves two sons and one daughter. They are Miles W. Graves of this city, Lemuel C. Graves of Chihuahua, Mexico, and Miss Julia A. Graves of Hartford. The funeral will be held at 2 o'clock Friday afternoon from the residence of Mr. Graves. The services will be conducted by the Rev. Rockwell Harmon Potter, pastor of the Center church, and the Rev.

CHILDREN OF SIMON GRAVES (537)

Solomon Graves (1238), sometimes called Salmon Graves, was born 10 May 1781, and died 3 May 1858 in Ellisburg, Jefferson Co., NY. He married Lucy Converse, daughter of David Converse and Deborah Kenyon. She was born about 1786 in VT, and died 11 Oct. 1863 in Ellisburg, Jefferson Co., NY. They were both buried in Saxe Cem., Ellisburg. Solomon moved from Bennington, VT in 1800 and settled on a farm near Ellisburg.

An examination of a list of those named Graves buried in Saxe Cem., Ellisburg, determined that they were apparently all descended from immigrant Thomas Graves of Hartford, CT and Hatfield, MA. Ira Graves, born 1790, was a son of Simon⁶ Graves and Persis ‑‑‑‑‑‑, and it is apparent that Solomon Graves was his older brother. There may have been more children than the two listed below. (R‑92, R‑93, R‑94)

Nathan Underhill, husband of Persis Graves, wrote a letter to his "brother" Ira on 19 Dec. 1852. The 1850 census for Ellisburgh, N.Y. listed all the following children.

She was born 17 March 1797 in VT, and died 17 Feb. 1856 in Oakland Twp., Louisa Co., IA. Both she and Jesse were buried in Carpenter Cem., Oakland Twp., Louisa Co., IA. Jesse also married Marills Haverland (before or after his marriage to Lucinda?).

Jesse and Lucinda moved from Fulton Co., IL to Louisa Co., IA in the early 1850's, and he was the second postmaster at Port Allen on about 30 March 1854, according to the book, The Fork of the Rivers, by Mabel Estle Brown. (History of Louisa and Muscatine Counties, IA)

It was originally not known who the parents of Jesse Graves were, but a review of known families gave only one possibility for his parentage, Simon and Persis Graves. The fact that Jesse fit into the family of Thomas Graves of Hartford, CT somewhere has been confirmed by DNA testing. (R‑99, R‑101)

Oliver Graves (1286) was probably born in 1792 in Castleton, Rutland Co., Vt., and died 10 July 1873 in Minerva, Warren Co., N.Y. (from War of 1812 pension application). He first married Lucy Daniels, daughter of Moses Daniels and Lucy Noble, on 10 Nov. 1815. She was born 11 April 1796 in Pittsfield (?), Mass., and died 4 Aug. 1833 in Ticonderoga, Essex Co., N.Y.

He secondly married Sophronia Daniels on 28 Nov. 1833 in Ticonderoga, N.Y. She was born 19 March 1808 in Pittsfield, Mass. (Noble Family genealogy), and was a sister of Lucy and first cousin of Sarah (Wheeler) Graves (according to War of 1812 pension application of Oliver, and Sophronia's application for widow's pension). The pension application for Oliver's widow was dropped because Sophronia remarried between 31 May and 31 Dec. 1878, but the name of her husband and the date were not given.

Oliver enlisted at the age of 21 to fight in the War of 1812, according to his pension application. He gave his occupation as millwright, but was a farmer at the time of his enlistment in Sept. 1814. He gave his height as 6 ft., 1-1/2 in., with red hair and black eyes.

He lived in West Haven, Rutland Co., Vt., 1820 census; Ticonderoga, Essex Co., N.Y., 1830 and 1840 censuses; and Horicon, Warren Co., N.Y., 1850 census. All the children by the second marriage were born in N.Y. state. (R‑24, R‑46)

The Genealogy of the Dodge Family of Essex County, Mass., by Joseph T. Dodge, Madison, Wisc., 1898, showed a Tyler Dodge, who lived in Sangerfield, Oneida Co., and Fredonia, N.Y., and was living with his niece, Mrs. Dorothy Gustin, in Bath, when he died. History of Erie County, Penn., Chicago, Warner Beers and Co., 1884, stated in a biographical sketch of Erastus V. Allen, that his wife's parents were Esther Graves and Tyler Dodge. There were probably other children in addition to the one listed below. (R‑24, R‑46)

Although it was not previously known who his parents were, he was placed partly because of the information that he had an older brother William who lived near Erie, Pa., a younger brother David, a sister Polly who married Mr. Carter, and a sister Esther who lived to be 104 years old.

He married Amanda Wilmarth on 2 May 1815 in Victor, NY. She was born 1790-1800, and died 5 Feb. 1882 in Lafayette, WI. He was a blacksmith, and later a Methodist minister.

Silas Graves (1300) was born about 1795-96 (although a date of 1784 has also been given) in Blount Co. or Monroe Co., TN, and died in March 1861 in Nodaway Co., MO. On March 20, 1828, the Court of Pleas, Monroe Co., appointed Silas to be Administrator of the Estate of Stephen Graves, deceased. On April 28, 1829, Silas Graves, William Garner and wife Betsy, and Stephen Graves of Monroe Co., heirs of Stephen Graves, Sr., dec'd late of Monroe Co., deeded land to Wm. S. Blair et al. This is the last time that Silas has been found in TN. The name Silas appears next in the 1830 census of Bartholomew Co., IN, listing him as being born in TN, and had wife and 2 children. In the 1840 census, he appears in Platte Co., MO, and in the 1850 and 1860 censuses he is in Nodaway Co., MO. Silas married Sarah ‑‑‑‑‑‑ on 11 May 1843 in Blount Co., TN. (R‑213)

The diary of Stephen Graves (b. 1810) provides the proof that the children listed below are the grandchildren of Stephen Graves (b. 1763). The family tradition states that there were 11 sons but, if this is correct, not all the names have been found. Stephen, Wash, Isaac, Abraham, and Jacob all moved to Murray Co., Ga.; Richard, Stephen, and Thomas moved to Scott Co., Ark.; Richard and Wash moved to Greene Co., Mo. (R‑17)

Adam Graves (1304) was born about 1790 or 1793 in TN, died in May 1865 in Blount Co., Tenn., and was buried in Ellijoy (or Ella Joy) Cem. He served in the War of 1812. The name of his first wife is not known. He secondly married Mahala Hubbard, daughter of Elizabeth ‑‑‑‑‑‑, on 2 April 1846 in Blount Co., Tenn. She was born about 1817. (Because of the way the children's birthdates are grouped, could Mahala actually be Adam's third wife? There was a large gap between the birth of Riley and Hetty.)

The last 6 children listed below were given as Adam's heirs in guardianship records from 1868-1876, Blount Co., Tenn. The guardian was Hugh H. Gamble. At least the last 7 children were born in Blount Co. (R‑17, R‑21)

Mary L. Graves (1554) was born 25 Aug. 1825 in South Deerfield, Mass., and died 28 Jan. 1924 in Fairfield, Conn. She first married Asa Fiske on 26 Aug. 1845 in South Deerfield. He died on their 43rd wedding anniversary in 1888. She secondly married ‑‑‑‑‑‑ Smith.

According to an obituary in the Fairfield newspaper: "Fairfield lost one of its oldest residents when Mrs. Mary Graves Fiske Smith died at her home, 399 King's Highway on Monday. She was 98 years, 5 months, and three days old, and was the oldest voter in Fairfield, having accepted the responsibilities of suffrage soon after the effectiveness of the 19th amendment, and participated in the elections since that date.

Mrs. Annette Fiske Mereness, a daughter, who is a member of the bar in New York, attended Mrs. Smith constantly for the last 20 years.

Separated from the century mark by only 19 months, Mrs. Smith lived to see the president for whom she cast her first vote in 1920 precede her across the Great Divide. She retained her health up to the end, but gradually succumbed to the infirmities of age.

She had lived in Fairfield for many years, and was a member of an old family of New England, ancestors on both sides of her family having been killed and scalped by Indians in 1746.

....Mrs. Smith was a member of the Congregational Church of Deerfield. She was made a voter in Fairfield in Sept. 1920, and voted for President Harding in Nov. 1920, and at the town elections in Oct. 1920 and 1922, also participated.

The body was taken in charge by Orville W. Holmes, Fairfield undertaker, and was shipped to Mrs. Smith's home town, Deerfield, on Wednesday, for burial."

An obituary from Valley Gleaner, Lee, Mass., Sept. 21, 1898, states: "To the recent and rapid succession of deaths of the older residents of the town has been added another, that of Milo A. Graves, which occurred on Thursday. Mr. Graves would have been 86 at his next birthday and his death was caused by a general breaking down, termed by physicians senile collapse.

The native energy and strength of purpose which had kept him active under the infirmities of age asserted themselves almost to the last, and in spite of growing weakness he kept about as usual until a few days before his death.

Although a native of West Stockbridge, Mr. Graves had been a resident of Lee during nearly his entire life. His memory was remarkable and he possessed a large fund of interesting reminiscence of the early residents and of the early history of the town.

He was one of the subscribers to the building of the old M. E. church and had frequently served the society as trustee. He naturally lived much in the past and took an active interest in the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the church a few years ago.

Mr. Graves married Martha, daughter of Kenaz Clark, and her death occurred five years ago after a married life of more than half a century. The surviving sons and daughters are C. W. Graves of Nashville, Tenn., Frank Graves of Hartford, Ct., Mrs. DeWitt S. Smith of Lee, Mrs. C. W. Clark of Tenn., Mrs. Robert McAlpine of Marinette, Wis., and Miss Carrie M. Graves who resided at home and who had ministered to her father very devotedly during his declining years. One sister of Mr. Graves also survives.

The funeral was largely attended Saturday morning. Rev. Dr. Rowland officiated and the bearers were Abner Rice, John Bowen, T. L. Foote, and Alonzo Bradley." (R‑200)

CHILDREN OF JOSEPH GRAVES (876) AND THEADOTIA MEEKINS

Whitney Graves (1953) was born 1 May 1821 in Williamsburg, Mass., and died 30 March 1898 in Frankfort, N.Y. He married Martha Davidson of Salisbury, N.Y. on 19 Sept. 1852. She was born 28 March 1827. He lived with his parents in Frankfort before he married, and he and his wife continued to live there.

According to a newspaper obituary: "Death of Whitney Graves -- The oldest merchant of Frankfort -- an honorable career. Frankfort, March 30.

Whitney Graves died at his home, on First Avenue, in this village, this morning at 7:30 o'clock, aged 76 years and 10 months. While for a year and upwards he has been in feeble and declining health, yet his familiar form was often seen on the street and at his place of business, and only for a few weeks last past has he been unable to leave the house.

Williamsburg, Mass., was the place, and May 1st, 1821, the date of his birth. Whitney was the third child of Joseph and Theodocia Graves. In the year 1828 these people removed from their New England home to Lisle, Broome Co., N.Y., and fifteen years later to Peru, in the State of Indiana. The climate there proved very unhealthful, and after the death of the father and three other members of the family, the widow, with her four surviving children, in 1848 removed to this village.

The subject of this sketch, with his two brothers, Charles and Henry, soon opened a little grocery store. If the venture was at first unpretentious and limited, its foundation seems to have been well laid. Small profits, strict integrity, and economy in his home life won public favor and ensured unvarying success, and the grocery enterprise proved a partnership for life. The first change was in 1896, when death retired Charles, and now the senior and foremost member of the firm has also gone forever. He was the oldest of the Frankfort merchants, both in years and in active service, and enjoyed a wider reputation and a higher financial standing than any of his business associates.

In 1850 Whitney Graves embraced the Christian religion, united with the First M. E. Church of this place, and early became one of its most active and constant members and a generous and cheerful contributor to its support. For upwards of forty years he was conspicuous in its councils, and for a generation one of its most faithful and valued trustees.

In politics he was an unswerving and pronounced Republican from the first organization of that political party, always taking an active interest in and earnestly supporting its candidates and measures.

September 19th, 1852, he married Martha Davison, who, with an only child, Mrs. Mary Lamberson, of this village, survives him." (R‑200)

They lived in Williamsburg, Mass.

According to an obituary in the Northampton, Mass. newspaper, dated March 1, 1910: "Daniel Collins Graves, the hero of the Mill River flood of 1874, one of the greatest disasters that New England has known, is dead at his home in Williamsburg. He was 70 years old.

Mr. Graves, while returning home early the morning of May 15, 1874, learned that the reservoir at the Mill River valley had burst. Unharnessing his horse, he leaped on its back and rode the length of the valley, awakening the several hundred inhabitants of the village threatened by the onrushing waters. Despite his warnings, more than 140 persons were caught in the flood and drowned."

The following poem was also published in the newspaper. "The Ride of Collins Graves

by John Boyle O'Reilly

No song of a soldier riding down

To the raging fight of Winchester Town;

No song of a time that shook the earth

With the nation's throe at a nation's birth;

But the song of a brave man, free from fear

As Sheridan's self, or Paul Revere;

Who risked what they risked - free from strife

And its promise of glorious pay - his life.

The peaceful valley has waked and stirred,

And the answering echoes of life are heard;

The dew still clings to the trees and grass,

And the earlier toilers smiling pass,

As they glance aside at the white-walled homes,

Or up the valley where merrily comes

The brook that sparkles in diamond rills

As the sun comes over the Hampshire hills.

What was it that passed like an ominous breath?

Like the shiver of fear or the touch of death?

What was it? The valley is peaceful still,

And the leaves are afire on the top of the hill;

It was not a sound, nor a thing of sense -

But a pain like a pant in the short suspense

That wraps the being of those who see

At their feet the gulf of eternity.

The air of the valley has felt the chill;

The workers pause at the door of the mill;

The housewife, keen to the shivering air,

Arrests her foot on the cottage stair,

Instinctive taught by the mother-love,

And thinks of the sleeping ones above.

Why start the listeners? Why does the course

Of the millstream widen? Is it a horse -

'Hark to the sound of the hoofs,' they say -

That gallops so wildly Williamsburg way?

God! What was that, like a human shriek -

From the winding valley? Will nobody speak;

Will nobody answer these women who cry

As the awful warnings thunder by?

Whence come they? Listen! And now they hear

The sound of the galloping horse-hoofs near;

They watch the trend of the vale, and see

The rider, who thunders so menacingly

With waving arms and warning scream

To the home-filled banks of the valley stream.

He draws no rein, but he shakes the street

With a shout and the ring of the galloping feet.

And this the cry that he flings to the wind:

To the hills for your lives! The flood is behind!'

He cries and is gone; but they know the worst -

The treacherous Williamsburg dam has burst!

The basin that nourished their happy homes

Is changed to a demon - It comes! It comes!

A monster in aspect, with shaggy front

Of shattered buildings to take the brunt

Of the dwellings they shatter - white-maned and hoarse,

The merciless terror fills the course

Of the narrow valley, and rushing raves

With death on the first of its hissing waves.

Till the cottage and street and crowded mill

Are crumbled and crushed. But onward still

In front of the roaring flood is heard

The galloping horse and the warning word.

Thank God that the brave man's life is spared!

From Williamsburg town he nobly dared

To race with the flood and to take the road

In front of the terrible swath it mowed.

For miles it thundered and crashed behind,

But he looked ahead with a steadfast mind;

'They must be warned!' was all he said,

As away on his terrible steed he sped.

When heroes are called for, bring the crown

To this Yankee rider; send him down

On the stream of Time with the Curtius old;

His deed, as the Roman's, was brave and bold.

And the tale can as noble a thrill awake,

For he offered his life for the people's sake." (R‑200)

CHILDREN OF HANNAH CHURCH (1023) AND ALDEN DARLING

Timothy Darling (2186) was born 16 Oct. 1804 in Phelps, Ontario Co., NY, and died 13 Aug. 1872 in Leon, Cattaraugus Co., NY. All their children were born in Leon, NY, except for Milo and Mary who were born in Phelps, NY.. He married Diantha M. Groves, daughter of David Groves and Dorcas Meacham. She was born 13 Aug. 1811 in Cortland Co., NY, and died 7 April 1879 in Leon, Cattaraugus Co., NY.

There has been some belief that Diantha's surname was Graves, not Groves. R‑117 could find no Groves in the Cortland and surrounding areas, and many Graves were there. Also, the third son of Timothy and Diantha had the middle name of Graves (not Groves), so she believes Groves was probably a transcription error. However, R‑119 wrote that in the papers written by Marcellus Warner Darling, son of Timothy and Diantha, and especially in “An Unfinished Memory Sketch of the Life of Rev. Marc Darling”, started June 19, 1907, he spelled Diantha’s maiden name as Groves. All these papers were donated by Jay Norwood Darling (son of Marcellus) to the University of Iowa Special Collections Dept., and are Manuscript Register MsC236. In addition, gravestone inscriptions in Rutledge Cem., Cattaraugus Co., NY, have a number of Groves, including Diantha’s parents David Groves, 1784-26 June 1843, and Dorcas Groves, 1793-5 Dec. 1871.

(family records, headstone, probate of estate), and was buried in Greenwood Cem., York, Neb.

(family records, headstone, probate of estate, obituary).

Betsey married a second time to Squire C. Cook, son of Jesse Cook and Nancy Lagier, on 1 Jan. 1878 in York, Neb. (York Co. records). He was born in 1832 in N.Y. They were divorced in Nov. 1884.

Noble Graves joined the First Congregational Church, Castleton, Vt., on July 4, 1841, and was dismissed to the Congregational Church in Derby, Conn. on 3 Dec. 1845. He moved with the Beecher family to Kendall Co., Ill. about 1846. Mr. and Mrs. N. W. Graves helped form the Congregational Church of Ausable Grove, near Yorkville, Kendall Co., Ill., in 1848 (church record). N. W. Graves was elected to office of Deacon, 3 Jan. 1852, and resigned the office and asked for a letter of dismissal to the church in Joliet, Ill. on 10 Dec. 1853. They buried their 3 oldest children in Kendall Co., Ill. They moved to Joliet, Will Co., Ill. about Dec. 1853, then to Warren Twp., Marion Co., Missouri, about 1855-56.

The Graves were apparently in St. Joseph only a short time before going back to Marion Co.

On 2 June 1859, Marion Co. land records showed "Whereas a co-partnership has heretofore existed between Noble W. Graves and Henry J. Edmunds, both of Marion Co., Mo., in the milling and farming business and whereas the said Graves and Edmunds have by mutual consent dissolved said partnership and the said Graves is desirous of and intends to continue said business individually ... grant ... Noble W. Graves ... the personal property ... described as one saw mill, fixtures and tools, a lot of sawed lumber, a lot of saw logs, three yoke of oxen, one horse, two log waggons, one log cart, two cows, four hogs, one yearling heifer, etc., etc. ... and to the following described real estate ..."

The Graves lived in Missouri until the firing upon Fort Sumter, when "on account of his Union sentiments, he was obliged to leave everything. He was warned his life was in peril, and only a few hours later, on the same night, his home was visited by a band of rebels who informed his wife that they had come for him to join their ranks or take the consequences. Learning that he had gone, they immediately pursued, but did not capture him." (Obituary of N. W. Graves)

Noble Graves enlisted in the 13th Regt., Illinois Cavalry, at Rockford, Ill., on 20 Sept. 1861.

Richard Graves (2645) was born 22 April 1809 in Blount Co., Tenn., and died 2 Feb. 1869. He first married Susan B. ‑‑‑‑‑‑ about 1830-31 in Tenn. She was born about 1815 in Tenn., and died in July 1850 in Scott Co., Ark. He secondly married Elizabeth ‑‑‑‑‑‑[32]. She was born 19 Nov. 1826 in Tenn., and died 3 Nov. 1910. They were both buried in Robberson Prairie Cem., near Springfield, Mo.

Richard appeared in the 1850 census for Scott Co., Ark., organized 5 Nov. 1833 from Crawford, Pope, and Pulaski counties. He was listed as age 42, with wife Elizabeth, and six children (the first six listed below). Living in the household were William Graves, age 64, and Mary Ballinger Graves (his wife), age 49. (Could William be Richard's father? Based on Richard's first child being named Kezziah, it could be that Richard's mother was named Kezziah and that was the name of William's first wife. However, the fact that the 1830 census of Monroe Co., Tenn. listed a Kissy Graves on p. 145, might indicate that she was the widow of another brother, possibly Silas.)

Richard Graves moved to Greene Co., Mo. His will, probated 10 Feb. 1869, includes the 7 other children listed below. The will was witnessed by his brother, George Washington Graves.

On the Richard Graves property was a spring which furnished water for his family and was also used to operate a grist mill. (R‑57)

Isaac Graves (2649) was born about 1813-15 in Monroe Co., Tenn., and died 10 April 1875 in Tennga, Murray Co., Ga. (on the line between Tenn. and Ga.; hence the name Tennga). He first married Elizabeth ‑‑‑‑‑‑ about 1834 in Tenn. She was born about 1813-15 in Tenn., and died 7 April 1873 in Tennga, Murray Co., Ga. They were both buried in Liberty Baptist Churchyard, Tennga. All their children were born in Monroe Co., Tenn.

The 1836 tax list for Monroe Co. reports Isaac owned 80 acres of land. About 1841, this couple was photographed in front of their house with their first four children (daughters). In the 1850 census, they appear in Murray Co., Ga., where, in 1856, he was a charter member of the Sumach Cumberland Presbyterian Church.

A painting, by a traveling artist, of the Isaac Graves homeplace (now east of U. S. Highway 411) between Cisco and Tennga, shows the house, grounds, and springhouse, with Old Baldy Mountain in the background. Today, the road leading to the property, now woodland, remains Graves Lane. The painting hung many years in the home of first son William Graves, Kenedy, Texas. After older members of his family died, the painting was given to a young neighbor, Alvin Ryan, whose family resides in Lampasas, Texas.

Isaac secondly married Millie Parks in 1874. There were no children from this marriage. (R‑57, R‑60)

CHILDREN OF LINUS GRAVES (1452)

Walter Haden Graves (2881) was born 9 Sept. 1851 in Bloomington, Ill. He married Katherine ("Kate") R. Graves on 19 April 1876. She was born 14 Feb. 1853, the daughter of William P. Graves of Bloomington. Walter graduated from Illinois Wesleyan University in 1874, and was employed by the U.S. government as a civil and hydraulic engineer. They lived in Washington, D.C., and later in San Francisco, Calif.

The following article was published in The Wesleyan, vol. IX, no. 4, April 1894 (price 25 cents per year!). "Walter H. Graves of '74. The Wesleyan is proud of her son Walter H. Graves, who has earned the title of 'The Colorado Ditch Builder.' We submit a few lines compiled from various sources concerning the career of this remarkable man.

The Crow reservation is a part of the arid region in the valley of the Big Horn River in Montana, where irrigation is a necessity in the pursuit of agriculture, yet it is by no means an arid waste. With its reaches of undulating plain, its pine-covered ridges and its grass- covered hills, its large rivers and numerous streams fringed with a luxuriant growth of vegetation, its mountains and picturesque landscapes, it is withal a country of most pleasing aspect, delightful in that which makes it suitable and desirable for habitation. Should its resources become fully utilized it will be found bearing as great a population as Connecticut, Rhode Island or Delaware, with which it is often compared.

The 'Doubting Thomases' of the Indian reservation looked with incredulity upon the proposition to irrigate the Crow reservation, for which purpose $200,000 was set aside by the terms of the treaty made with the Crows in 1890, and to which $200,000 more was added by the recent council at the agency for the purpose of getting their consent to the immediate opening of the reservation. The reservation formerly consisted of 5,000,000 acres, of which 2,000,000 were given up by the treaty for $946,000 and other allowances. Of the $200,000 set apart by the terms of the treaty, $50,000 can be expended in any one year for the irrigation in the valleys of the Big Horn, the Little Big Horn, on Pryor Creek, and such other streams as the Secretary of the Interior may deem proper.

Upon the ratification of the treaty the Secretary of the Interior wrote to the governors of the western states where irrigation works had been established, asking them to recommend some man to be put in charge of the important enterprise. Of the two names recommended to him the weight of evidence was decidedly in favor of Walter H. Graves. Mr. Graves was urged by the Secretary to undertake the work. He was abundantly able to execute such a task, for natural endowments, experience, success and integrity were all in his favor. He is a native of Bloomington, a graduate of the Illinois Wesleyan University, of the class of '74. In addition to a thorough course in mathematics in his Alma Mater he took a special training in civil engineering in the Polytechnic Jacques-Cartier University, Montreal. After leaving school he accompanied Major Powell in his explorations and surveys, and was engaged in various branches of government surveys until late in 1879. In 1880 he left government work and engaged in railroad locations and surveys, working for the Illinois Central, the Wisconsin Central, the Chicago & Northwestern, and the Denver & Rio Grande railroads; then two years in mining engineering brought him to Denver, Colo., where his great ditch-building career began. Under his direction more than $12,000,000 were expended in irrigation enterprises in Colorado. He constructed the immense systems that reclaimed the San Luis Valley, building over 2400 miles of canals, every mile of which is carrying water today.

Mr. Graves received his commission May 5, 1891, from the Secretary of the Interior, as Superintendent of Irrigation of the Crow Indian reservation in Montana. He proceeded at once to carry out the instructions of the Department, partly in a spirit of professional pride, being determined to convince the Washington authorities that a successful ditch could be built on an Indian reservation, and partly by reason of the fact that he believed that Montana offers a bigger field for the development of irrigation systems than any other state of territory in the union. On Dec. 21, one canal, thirty-five miles in length was finished, and preliminary surveys were made for two other canal routes, each about one hundred miles in length. Altogether, more than four hundred miles of local lines were established. Mr. Graves was allowed one gang boss and one clerk, who are white men, and it is not hard to imagine the difficulties he had to encounter in an enterprise requiring much accuracy and skill with only the aid of about two hundred of the most unskilled red men. Though greedy for coin, the earning of it by the sweat of his brow is comparitively a new departure for 'Lo, the poor Indian.'

Mr. Graves, though now only about forty years of age, has built several hundred miles of railroad, almost three thousand miles of irrigating canals, has handled and disbursed in the aggregate $15,000,000 to $18,000,000.

CHILDREN OF DEXTER GRAVES (1463) AND OLIVE ‑‑‑‑‑‑

Henry Graves (2920) was born in 1819. He married Clementine ‑‑‑‑‑‑. She died 24 Feb. 1891, aged 73 yrs., 4 months, in Chicago, Ill. He lived in Chicago, where his father settled and died.

The following newspaper article tells about Henry Graves.

"H. GRAVES A RECORD BREAKER

Has Lived in Chicago Continuously Longer than Any Other Man, He Asserts

'I have lived in Chicago longer than any man or woman living - longer than any man or woman who ever did live,' said Henry Graves, 3245 Graves Court, the other day. 'I have been a resident of Chicago continuously for sixty- nine years, and for the last fifty years I have lived in the same house. That is a record that cannot be beaten.

Alex Beaubien is the only person living who was in Chicago when I came here. He came here first, but he has lived in other places since, while I always have lived in Chicago, so I beat him. I never was out of town any length of time except once when I took some horses to New York to sell. I was gone two months that time, but of course it was a business trip and I did not give up my residence. That was in 1860. And do you know, I got so lonesome in New York that I came back home before I sold all the horses.

My father was born in Norwich, Chenango Co., N.Y., in 1790. He moved to Ashtabula, O., in the 20's and in 1829 he came to Illinois to see what chance there was to make money in the big lead mines around Galena. He went to Pittsburgh by horse, and from Pittsburgh down the Ohio River, and up the Mississippi to Galena. Business in the mining country was not good, so he determined to see the country and bought a horse, saddle, saddlebags, and a pocket compass and started for a place called Chicago.

Of course there were no roads in those days - nothing but Indian trails to follow - and after traveling three days he lost his way and for two days rode about wildly, finally striking the Illinois River at Peoria. Four days later he arrived in Chicago. He remained here two days and then rode to Detroit, going from there to Ohio. He went through the Black Swamp, which was in northwestern Ohio and southeastern Michigan, and, by the way, there is still something left of that big swamp, although the country has been pretty well drained and it is nothing like the swamp it was in those days.

Told Wondrous Tales

Father had been gone three months when he reached Ashtabula. People in that part of the country had heard of the long trip on which he started and the news of his return soon spread all over. Men came from as far as fifty miles to hear him tell of the strange country he had visited. I was a little boy then, but I can remember father telling the farmers they were foolish for remaining in that hilly and wooded country, plowing around stumps and picking up stones.

'Why,' he said, 'I saw country where you could plow a straight line for two days, and the ground is as black as the blackest piece of coal you ever saw.'

Not many people believed him. They couldn't see how it was possible to plow a straight line that long, and all of them thought he was exaggerating. Captain Joseph Napier, a sailor, was one of the men who thought that what father said was worth investigating, so he started west on horseback to see if there was such land as father had described. He struck Whit Pigeon prairie before reaching Chicago. Well, he didn't care about coming on to Chicago when he saw that big prairie looming up before him. He turned around and started back to Ashtabula.

'Graves was right,' he told the people on his return. 'Why, you could see level ground straight ahead the same as you see the ocean. I am going back.'

Joseph Napier and his brother John built a schooner, completing it in the last of May, 1831. They left Ashtabula with thirteen families aboard. Each family carried provisions enough to last a year and had enough money to buy land when we reached Chicago. Father was not a good sailor, and when we arrived at Detroit after seven days' sailing he left the boat, taking my mother, my sisters Louise and Lucy, and me ashore with him, leaving my brother Lorin on the boat.

Prairie Schooner Beat Lake Craft

Father bought a team and wagon and we came to Chicago. We were three weeks getting here. There was no road the last sixty miles of the way. The last house we saw until we reached Chicago was at Door Prairie, so called because there was an open space in the woods through which you could look into the wide prairie beyond.

The schooner, as we learned on its arrival, had been wind-bound for days in St. Clair River and Lake St. Clair, and on Lake Huron and Lake Michigan as well, and did not arrive until three weeks after we did. It landed its passengers on July 15, 1831, from which time I generally date my residence here.

Things have changed some since then. The first winter we were here we trapped forty wolves, six foxes, and one lynx over on the North Side, where the water works plant now stands, on Tower court. I killed deer as late as 1840 way down-town, where some of the big stores stand now. In 1845 a party of twenty of us, on horses, went out southwest of town a few miles and formed a line stretching out several miles and drove 150 deer into Chicago. Twenty of them were killed.

The troops were here when we came, but there was no frame house, all the buildings being of hewn logs. Father built the first frame house, near State street and the river, in 1832. He built the old Mansion House on Lake street, opposite the site of the present Tremont House.

One of the remarkable changes I have seen is in the river. There was an immense sand bar at the mouth, and more than once I have driven across there with a wagon and team.

I was thinking the other day of the load of oysters I brought here one time. It was in the winter of 1845. I drove a team and wagon to Cleveland and bought 150 gallon cans of oysters that had been brought to Cleveland by stage from Baltimore. All the hotelkeepers here were interested in that trip, for each one wanted to buy some of the oysters. One man met me before I reached Chicago and bought the whole load at $5 a can. I made $300 on that trip.

It was in the first race ever trotted for a purse in this State. We had done all our racing - quarter mile and half mile running and half mile trotting - on the road that is now Michigan avenue. The course was from what is now Jackson boulevard to Sixteenth street. Sometimes we ran in the turf and sometimes on the road. In 1844 a half mile track was built, and when it was finished the citizens made up a purse of $100. A fellow named Kircheville, owner of a horse Godfrey, and I, with Lady Jane, raced for the purse. There was a great crowd out, standing around the edge of the track, for we had no grand stand or seats. We trotted four heats, and I am proud to say I won.

Drove First 2:30 Horse

I drove the first horse in 2:30 in the State of Illinois. That horse was Ike Cook, named after a former postmaster of Chicago and a big land owner and speculator in his day. Ike was a great fellow and my Ike was a great horse. I drove him in 2:30 in 1856, and I tell you it was a sensation in those days. I've got some plow horses down on my farm at Kankakee now that I would give away if they couldn't trot a mile in 2:30.

Yes, things have changed since then; Chicago's changed; everything's changed except me and my house. This old house is the same as it always was, because I want it that way. I don't like to change a single board in it, even when the board gets rotten, for everything about the place reminds me of old days. I haven't a brother or sister or a child, my wife is dead. I'm all alone, and these old things keep alive pleasant recollections. I've got a farm down near Kankakee, as pretty a farm as you ever saw in your life. It is divided, one part of it being used for ordinary farming and the other I use for my horses. I have three houses on the farm - one for the man who looks after the crop end of it, another for the men caring for the horses, and another for myself. I keep a housekeeper there all the time, so I can run down there and be at home every two or three days. But do you know I'm not brave enough to move down there for good? Why, I can't get even fresh air up here in Chicago and sunshine's scarce, but actually I am afraid I'll get lonesome if I give up this old house and move down to the farm to stay. I live up here a few days and run down to the farm for a visit. Then I get lonesome for Chicago and the old house and I'm back again.

I live here in the same way I always did. Look around and see my kerosene lamps. When they put gas in the streets they wanted to put pipes into the house. They got fresh with me and I said, 'I have lived a long time without gas, and I can live longer. I wouldn't let you put pipes in here now if you gave me your blamed gas.' I've burned kerosene ever since, and I guess it has been a good thing for me, for I'll bet a thousand dollars I'd have blown out the gas before I'd had it a year,' and he laughed heartily.

I expect to have a record that never will be beaten by any old residents. I'm going to live a long time yet, and if anybody expects to beat me he will have to take good care of himself. I am 79 years old and I have never been sick. My wagon broke several months ago while I was driving and my colt ran away, throwing me out. I was shaken up badly and have not entirely recovered, but I'm in pretty good health. I'd be all right if it hadn't been for that durned wagon. It was one of those steel spoke, ball bearing things. It makes me mad when I think about it. The axle broke on the bearings and naturally the colt ran away. Rules for Longevity

Yes, indeed, anybody who wants to beat my record must take good care of himself. I've kept young by living out of doors as much as possible, not smoking or chewing, going to bed and getting up early, paying my debts, and minding my own business. No, I am not a total abstainer from liquor. I've had my fun in that line. I've been pretty merry a good many times, but I never let liquor get the better of me. But minding your own business and paying your debts will keep you on earth longer than anything else. We wouldn't have near so many deaths at any early age if people would attend to their own business and let other people's alone.

I never owed a man a penny - yes, I did, once. I got into a fight with the city thirty years ago or more over taxes and the matter went into the courts, until at the end of three years my taxes had run up to $30,000. Then the city won and I found I didn't have enough ready money to pay the taxes. I went to a certain bank and said to the President, 'I want to borrow $30,000.'

He looked surprised, for I had been doing business with that bank for many years and never before had borrowed a cent. He told me to come around tomorrow. 'Not much,' I said, 'I want it now.'

Then he wanted to know what I wanted with it, and I told him it was none of his business. 'Well,' he said, 'come around tomorrow and I'll see if I can let you have it.

But I wouldn't be put off that way. I owned 170 lots down here in this section of the city and I drew a plot of them from my pocket. 'Here,' I said, 'I own these lots on this map. You mark what you think will secure a loan, and mark as many as you please. I don't care if you mark the whole bunch.'

'How much is there on the property,' he asked.

'Not a blamed penny on them,' I told him.

He said if I would come back the next day he guessed I could have the money. I told him I'd be back and that I wouldn't be put off, and I was there the next day.

'Henry,' he said, 'we have decided to loan you the $30,000, but we don't want to take a mortgage on anything you've got. Just give us your note.'

I told him to draw the note good and strong, so I couldn't get the best of the bank - did you ever hear of anybody getting the best of a bank? - and after I signed the note I just loaded the $30,000 in greenbacks into an old valise I had brought with me and wandered over to the tax office on the North Side and dumped the money out on the counter. I paid back that note in nine months, and I haven't owed a penny to any man in the world since."

CHILDREN OF JAMES GRAVES (1528) AND DORCAS NICHOLS

William J. Graves (3090) was born in 1826 in Utica, Oneida Co., NY, and died in 14 Nov. 1893 of pneumonia in Albany, NY. Due to the untimely death of his father about 1835-1839, William went to work at an early age, starting as a stable boy tending Erie Canal horses and mules. He worked his way up to become canal station keeper at Oneida, Oneida Co., NY. He married Sarah Morrison, daughter of Dr. George Morrison and Sally ‑‑‑‑‑‑ of Utica, NY, in 1847. (According to R‑90, her name was Sarah Melvin. Perhaps she married a Mr. Melvin after William died.) She was born in 1831 in Utica, NY, and died 18 Oct. 1903 in Syracuse, NY. From 1849 to 1874 they had eleven children, of whom eight survived to adulthood. William and Sarah were both buried in Eagle Hill Cem., Albany, NY.

About 1870, William went to work for the New York Central Railroad as a switch tender. His four sons eventually also worked for the NYCRR and several of his daughters married railroad men. The family spread out along the rail route between Albany and Syracuse, with many grandsons also becoming railroadmen.

In 1882, William, his wife, and three youngest children, joined the family of William's older daughter in Albany, where there were jobs at the West Albany NYCRR shops.

Sources of R‑90 for the children and the name of Sarah as Sarah Melvin are family genealogical notes and undertaker's statements of services for William and Sarah.

They were in the 1870 and 1880 censuses for Utica, Oneida Co., NY. William worked for the railroad. All their children were born in NY. (R‑88, R‑89, R‑90)

CHILDREN OF HORACE P. GRAVES (1626) AND ZILPHA A. DENT

William Horace ("Bill") Graves (3284) was born 4 Feb. 1869 in Detroit, Mich., and died 8 Feb. 1924. He married Gertrude Covert on 14 July 1897. She was born in April 1871 in MI.

An obituary states: "William Horace Graves, better known throughout the Mississippi valley as 'Bill Graves,' was born in the city of Detroit on Feb. 4th 1869. He died on Feb. 8th, 1924.

His parents, Horace P. and Zylpha Graves, migrated from New England while Detroit was comparitively a country town. His father came of Revolutionary stock, at least two of his ancestors holding commissions in the revolutionary army.

His mother was of a prominent southern family, the Dent's, and of kin to Mrs. President Grant, her grandfather having long before the Civil War freed his 1200 slaves, accepting great hardships for the remainder of his life, rather than keep his inherited interest in those human chattels.

At the age of 14 years, during his school vacation, young William entered the employ of W. D. Robinson Shoe Company of Detroit, at that time one of the leading shoe jobbers of the Central West, as office boy. Young 'Bill' took to the shoe business like the traditional 'duck to the pond,' and after many persuasive arguments succeeded in gaining permission from his parents to make it his life's work, in lieu of the one they had planned for him, that of a physician. Steady advancement during the next four years finds him at the age of 18 years assistant house salesman, and one year later, at the age of 19 years, he started upon his career as traveling salesman, covering territory extending from Detroit to the Missouri river, which territory he has consistently covered for the past 36 years for several shoe manufacturers and jobbers, with marked success. It remained, however, for the Roth Shoe Co. of Cincinnati, with whom he affiliated in 1916, to discover and develop by unstinted support the latent strength possessed by Mr. Graves in all matters pertaining to good shoes, the phenomenal success of that institution during the time that Mr. Graves served them as traveling salesman, style man and as manager of sales department, offers positive evidence of his value as a practical shoe man.

'Bill' Graves was a man's man, a lover of nature and the great outdoors, an ardent devotee of the rod and reel, was one who loved his fellow man, who whether at work or play, always 'hit the line hard and never fouled.' He loved the beautiful and good, he abhorred hypocricy and deceit. His hand was ever ready for a worthy charity, generous and kind to all. He was one who 'wrote the faults and foibles of his fellows upon the sand, their virtues upon the tablets of a loving memory.'

The sheaf of letters and telegrams received by his bereaved family, expressing sympathy, bear silent but impressive tribute to the high esteem in which he was held by his many friends and business associates throughout the entire country, coming from the Gulf to the Great Lakes and from the Rockies to the Atlantic. In politics, he was a liberal Republican, was a personal friend to the late Governor Pingree, and a strong adherent to the political fortunes of the late Governor, of whom he was wont to relate many interesting recollections.

He was an old member of Palestine Lodge, F. & A. M.; of Leslie Chapter, R.A.M.; Leslie Council, R. & S. M.; and of Jackson Commandery, K. T., the latter officiating at the burial which took place from his late residence on February 11th.

In community life, both at Leslie and at Walled Lake, where he spent his summer vacations, his progessive ability has left its indelible mark. At Leslie he, more than anyone else, is entitled to credit for the athletic park, and the Leslie Home Telephone System, as well as other public improvements, in which he was always found upon the side of progress.

He was united in marriage to Miss Gertrude Covert, daughter of Ancel and Mary Covert, and among Leslie's most prominent families, pioneers of the community, on July 14, 1897, who together with the son, William Horace 2nd, survive him.

'Bill,' we have been long together,

Through pleasant and through cloudy weather.

'Tis hard to part when friends are dear;

Perhaps 'twill cost a sigh, a year.

Then steal away, give little warning,

Choose thine own time, say not good night -

But in some brighter clime,

Bid me 'good morning.'"

They were in the 1900, 1910, and 1920 censuses for Leslie Township, Ingham Co., MI. In 1920, his sister-in-law Carrie C. Pickett was living with them.. (R‑200)

[1]At least part of these comments seem to apply to Thomas Graves, an engineer from Gravesend, England, who was hired by the Mass. Bay company, and lived in Cambridge, MA. It is not presently believed that Thomas Graves of Hartford, CT was the same person as this other Thomas.

[2] R-83 suggests that Hannah's maiden name may have been Ward rather than Franklin.

[3] According to John Card Graves (R-200), David Graves died 28 Dec. 1846, the same day as his brother Simeon. However, that is obviously not correct, since David was shown by the 1850 census to be still living in 1850.

[4] Did David remarry to Sarah, as indicated in this census? Or did his wife Delia go by the name Sarah?

[5] It has been said that he married Hannah ------, but it is likely that there was confusion with his daughter named Hannah.

[6] R‑84 says he was raised in Wells, Rutland Co., VT. Perhaps Zenas moved his family to Wells, VT about 1780 and then later moved to Troy, NY.

[7]John Card Graves in “William Graves and Mariam Howe of Buffalo, NY and Oxford, IL” (R‑212) said William was born in 1777, and died 10 Dec. 1857 in Oxford, IL. The source of these dates is not known.

[8]According to R-212.

[9]According to R-212, she was born 13 Aug. 1780 and died 11 April 1881, aged 100 years, 7 months, 29 days.

[10] Source: DAR application of Marion (Graves) Bird, National 73265.

[11] The year of her death was given as 1854 by R‑116, and as 1855 by R‑113.

[12] John Card Graves, R-200, gave his date of death as 1856, but this 1854 date is documented and appears correct.

[13] 1792 as the birth date for Jesse is from R‑200.

[14] R‑99 gave her surname as Wilder and R‑101 gave it as Wildon.

[15]John Card Graves said he was born at New Hartford, Litchfield Co., CT, but, if so, his parents were only there a very brief time.

[16]According to R‑79.

[17]According to R-212, her name was Jerusha Haley.

[18]According to R-212, his name was Lucius M. Graves.

[19]According to R-212.

[20]According to R-212, he married Caroline Richie of Oxford, IL.

[21]Or 21 March 1883, according to R-212.

[22]According to R-212.

[23] According to R-83.

[24] According to R-83, there is some evidence that he did marry.

[25] Phebe Pride was in the 1900 census for Chicago, Ward 10, Cook Co., IL, b. Oct. 1862 in Scotland, both parents born in England. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1864 and had lived here 36 yeaers. Her niece, Charlotte Graves, was living with her.

[26] R-200 gave his birthdate as 1831, and R-98 gave it as 1834.

[27] Source for 1859 date and place of marriage: Illinois marriage license no. 620 of Eliza and Philander.

[28] Source: DAR National application no. 73265 of Marion (Graves) Bird, and obituary of Eliza Stebbins Graves.

[29] Source: Marriage license no. 1173 for David R. Graves and Susan Ong.

[30] According to census records.

[31] According to R‑99, he first married Malissa Daulton, 26 May 1859 (Jefferson Twp., Louisa Co., IA), m(2) Melissa Christian. However, it appears that these were actually the same person, as indicated by R‑101.

[32]It was previously thought (and published in the 1985 edition of this book) that this second marriage of Richard was to Elizabeth Dorrells on 28 May 1846, despite the fact that that marriage date didn’t fit with the death date of July 1850 for Richard’s first wife. It has now been determined that 2 different Richard’s were confused with each other. The Richard Graves who married Elizabeth Dorrells was descended from John Graves and Margery Harvey of Randolph Co., NC.

[33]Marriage license dated 22 March 1856 in DuPage Co., IL, with minister's statement that he married them on 24 March 1856.

[34] R-200 gave her name as Theis, but R-91 gave it as Tice. Considering the origin of the name, Theis seems more likely to be the original spelling but it may have been changed to Tice in the U.S.

[35] She was born 1867 according to R-91.

[36] She was born 1888 according to R‑91.

[37] These two alternate spellings were given by R‑91.

[38] He was born 1896 according to R‑91.

[39]According to R-212, this was Oliver Gould Graves, b. 1 July 1887. Could that have been another child?

[40] Another source said she married Stewart Vining.

[41]Since he was called that in R-212.
