I am researching a Griffith"Griffy" Griffith who was married first to Ellen ?.
In the 1850 census of Jennings Co, Marion Township, IN, shows that both are from Wales.
Griffy is 65 and Ellen 62. Living with them is a James Dorman 18 farmer.
Ellen must have died before 1859.
My gg grandmother Rebecca Ruth Graves Wilson ,("Ruey" was name on 2 censuses),
married first a William D Wilson on Nov 28, 1844. They had one known son, Cyrus L D
Wilson born Nov 10,1854. William died shortly after Cyrus was born. A daughter , Louisa J
4 yr, is listed with Ruey and William Wilson in the 1850 census of Jennings County.
Ruey married Griffith Griffith Jan 19, 1859 in Jennings Co, IN. They are in the 1860
census of Marion Township, Jennings Co, IN. Griffy is 72 and Ruth is 37. Living with
them are Cyrus L Dunham Jr 5 y( Wilson surname not used) and Thomas Griffith 11 years.
Louisa J Wilson married William H Stewart Oct 1, 1862.
In the Jackson County Indiana Obituaries 1854-1880, 1874 Brownstown Banner: "An
old Welsh gentleman named Griffith Griffith a citizen of this place, died last week.
April 11, 1874..
Thanks, Marilyn
