Marrow Griffin is my great grandfather. We show in our family bible that
his father was Nathan Griffin. There is a Nathan Griffin
in the Revolutionary War. He was born in Dorchester County, Maryland. His pension for the Rev. War
shows him living in North Carolina and Camden, South Carolina during this time. I need information to connect Nathan as the
father of Jeremiah Morrow Griffin, who is buried In Van Wyke, SC at the Presbyterian
Church in a field stone marked grave. Jeremiah

BAUCOM MOORE |
I have a beautiful old post card photo of a child named "Margaret Augusta Baucom" age 6 months. This, along with several other
lovely old photos, was found in my mother-in-law's picture box. My MIL,
now deceased, was born Margaret Moore
in Marshville, NC in 1917. This is the only photo which has been
identified with a name. After an attempt at research, I have found
no connection to the Baucom family; however a family cousin tells me
that there is a connection. So today I began again, finding on www.findagrave.com, a listing
for a Margaret A Baucom, 1915-1918. I think this child's name and dates
might be appropriate for the photo. [She was the daughter of Marshall
Ray Baucom and wife Julian Ammons, and grandson of Edmond D. Baucom and
Margaret Little. Of Anson Co/Richmond Co, NC] I did however find a possible connection (of sorts).
Margaret Little Baucom was a sister to Sarah Ellen Little Holmes (wife of John Holmes). Margaret Moore's mother,
Emma Coker, was raised by her uncle, John Holmes and his wife, S. Ellen
Holmes. Anyway, I'm trying to identify this child (way too many Margarets here). Help and/or suggestions would be
much appreciated. |
