CHILDREN OF SMITH GRAVES (1) AND CHARLOTTE ------

Allen Graves (2) was probably born about 1836 or 1837 in Sussex Co., VA, died 9 Dec. 1916 in Newville, Sussex Co., VA, and was buried 10 Dec. 1916 in Newville Cem. (His marriage licenses provide the estimate of 1836 or 1837. His death certificate gives his age as 84, for an estimated birth of 1832, but that is less apt to be correct, since someone else provided the information.)

He first married ------. She died. He next married Lucy Velvin on 25 Dec. 1873 at Benjamin Birdsong's, Sussex Co., VA. She died. He then married Christina Simms, daughter of Robert Simms and Alice ------, on 6 June 1902 in Sussex Co., VA. She was born about 1879. He was a farmer. (R-1)
