Descendants of Thomas Grinnage

Generation No. 2


2. JONATHAN2 GRINNAGE (THOMAS1) (Source: 1850 census.) was born ca. 1833 in Pennsylvania (Source: 1850 census.), and died Aft. 1900 (Source: 1900 census.). He married CATHARINE MDNNMUNKN (Source: 1860 census.) ca. 1853 in Pennsylvania (Source: 1900 census.). She was born ca. 1835 in Pennsylvania (Source: 1860 census.), and died Aft. 1900 (Source: 1900 census.).

Notes for JONATHAN GRINNAGE:
Marlene Bransom writes that Jonathan b ca 1835 married Sarah Waterford b Bluntsville, TN, on 10 Aug 1859 in Chatham Twp., Kent, Ontario. However, she offers no other reference. No such John or Jonathan has been found in the 1871 or 1881 Ontario census. There is, however, a Jonathan of the right age who married ca 1853 and remained in western PA.

For Jonathan in PA (not mentioned by Bransom):

Notes for JOSEPH LINLEY GRINNAGE:
The use of the middle name Sewley or Suly in some records may be a misreading of old handwriting for "Linley".

1850 - see father's listing.
1881 ONT Kent Chatham Dist 180 Sub-dist G div 2 p36 hh179 - all African eo, all C Methodist
Joseph L Grinage 31 bUSA farmer, Melinda 41 bUSA, Walter J 5 bONT, Cassie Ann Johnson 12 bONT
Cassie may be a daughter of Melinda by a prior relationship.

Possible, though daughter Minnie is not found earlier:

In the household of Robert age illeg bNC and Minnie 50 bCanada Goggius:
Grinage Melinda m-in-law 72 widow 8 children 1 living bIN pbNC
Minnie is newly remarried for only 4 years. If the correct listing, this presumes son Walter has died and that Melinda had numerous other children than Minnie and Walter. Minnie cannot be a child of Joseph Grinage, as he was about age 10 at the time of her birth.
     
Child of JOSEPH GRINNAGE and MELINDA SMITH is:
  i.   WALTER J.3 GRINNAGE (Source: 1881 Canadian census (on-line transcription).), b. ca. 1876, Ontario, Canada (Source: 1881 Canadian census (on-line transcription).).
