I have found many Grubbs families living in Forsythe, Stokes, and Caswell County North Carolina and think I may be connected, but so far am unable to prove it. The oldest Grubbs on my direct line is Benjamin Grubbs who was married to Rebecca English (may be second wife). He died about 1835 in Walton Co. Georgia. Children were:
James Madison Louisa w. Thomas Jefferson John Jackson William Washington Mary Ann Alemedea Lorena Benjamin Franklin Wilson Lumpkin
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.

A Hester mother is Grubbs. I do have a photo with a Carl Grubbs and his father was Ralph. Any info would be great...

Re: Grubbs in North Carolina
I am sorry, but I do not see anything in my genealogy that connects to the names you provided. I wish I could connect in someway. I have had a DNA sample run at FamilyTreeDNA and am finding some possible connections, but nothing for sure yet.
Wish I could help!
