I've run into a brick wall with this family line.
Theophilus Grant b. 1827 N.C.
married Sarah Duncan 8 March 1849
she b. 1832 Tn.
children;
1. Minerva b.1851
2. Mary Elizabeth b. 1852 she married
John Clayton Black 16 Feb,1868 in
Hog Eye Ark.(my gg grandparents)
3. John H. b. 1854
4. Elisha Franklin b.1855 He married Dulcene
Jones 1 Nov.1847 in Prarie Grove, Ark.
5. Lewis T. b.1857
6. Theodish b. 1859
7. Lucinda Susan b. 1862 Popler Bluff, Mo.
I'm looking for Theophilus' parents, I'm told they were Elisha Grant and Susanna Gaylord but, I can't find any documents to that effect. I'm also told that Hirum Ulysses Grant was thier grand uncle, but can't find the connection. Anyone know the facts? Thank you and good luck finding yours
