Loretta -
The Levi that I have was b in IN to Joseph, Jr and Elizabeth (?) Griffith
who were also both born in IN. They appear to have migrated to IN via KY
and TN. I noticed on the 1900 census on line that there are some Griffiths
who origins were from OH. I do not know who they are. I have not found my
Levi or his father in Clay Co in 1870. I am hoping to get to the 1880
census w/soundex and see if they moved from Clay at some point.
I will keep your email on file and if I find any connection will let you
know.
Bill

This is a good possibility that it is my Levi. I have little info on
him.
I
do know that he had 8 children, but I only have the birth year of one
of
them and that was 1877.
These are his children and their spouses:
Nancy Elizabeth b 9 Sep 1877 d 10 Apr 1935 m Sterling Prentice Beatty
Homer b 1888 d 11 Nov 1941 m Stella ?
George
Jane m ? Engle
Maude m ? White
Mable m ? Rowe
Minnie m Millard Fisk
Rosie m ? Bledsoe
Levi and Mary are my Grandmother's Grandparents. She thinks they may have
been born in Ohio, but knows that they were in Clay County. Mary died
before
my grandmother was born which makes her death bef 1923. She
remembers
Grandpa Levi and believes he died about 1929/1930.
Do you have other info on your Levi? I do not have the 1860 cenus, and did
not find him in the 1850, 1870, or 1900 cenuses that they have online. I
would like to add or disqualify the Levi that you have.
Thanks for responding,
Loretta
