Annie - this Spencer Griffin was born in Montgomery Co. KY in 1796. We aren't yet sure who his father was, but it was one of Anthony Griffin, Richard Griffin or Terry Griffin who were sons of Richard Griffin Sr who died intestate in 1824 in Montgomery Co. KY.

Richard SR's descendents created an heir's agreement on the division of his property, and it listed all 10 children as heir's. He had 5 sons and 5 daughters. The other two sons were named William and Young, and both preceeded their father in death.

Richard SR. moved his family to KY from Charlotte Co. VA ca. 1795. There is a land deed recorded in Charlotte that shows a power of attorney from Richard Griffin, of Clark Co. KY to his son Terry for transacting a land sale of Richard's property in VA.

THis is probably more information than you need right now, but I hope it is helpful.

I have a bit of information about this Griffin line. A gal in my husband's line, Mary Jane Stevens, married Hezekiah Griffin b. 1829, whom I show to be a son of David Spencer and Cynthia Burch Griffin, December 22, 1861 in Cooke county, Texas. Would like to correspond.
