John Grisham of North Carolina United States was born on March 14, 1761 in Culpeper, Culpeper County, VA, and died at age 74 years old on June 22, 1835 in SC. John Grisham was buried at Craig burial grounds in Walhalla, Oconee County, S. Carolina Usa.
Joseph married Nancy in 1820 & moved to Smith Co.,TN in 1826. He owned 200 acres (source: Carthage,TN Court House). part of Smith Co.,TN was given to form Putnam Co.,TN in 1844 & installed his land in Putnam Co.,TN, even though he never moved. [*Some ancestors say Joseph or his parents came from Ireland through Overton Co.,TN to Smith Co.,TN.] I have a one page genealogy for Joseph G. Grisham that is stamped chart 6A with these names & addresses written in at the top: Mrs. Carol J. Byrom, 2109 Skyline Dr.,Fort Worth, TX 76114, Sue Hawkins, 635 McCrory Creek, Nashville,TN 37214, Mrs. Robert McKinney, 424 Mercury Ave;, Lompoc, GA 93436 - it is presumed that they are the researchers. This chart was given to me by my father Kenneth H. Grisham. I have found my great grandfather's brother's great granddaughter & she had the same chart in her family history notebook. We don't know when it was put together. The chart also listed Joseph's sister-in-law as Sarah (King) with a blank for Joseph's brother's name (they had Matlida born 1846 in TN, Mariah born 1824 in TN, & Nancy Pryor who married Henderson Petty & had Martha "Patsy" Emmaline b.1851,Sarah Elizabeth b. 1852, Hinship Henderson b.1854, James Pryor b.1856, Silas Balaam b. 1858, & John Tapley b. 1863)
Chart 6A also has a blank for Joseph G. Grisham's parents' names with a note about Jackson County, 2806 & his father's name possibly could have been a Wim. Prior. It said there was a William Pryor Grisham on the Jackson Co., TN Poll Tax list in 1806. As far as I know, no Grisham family researcher has found out who Joseph G.'s father was. Carol Byrom wrote a book Grisham Any Way You Spell It that said all Grishams (Grisham, Grishom, Gresham, Grissom) Smith County, TN were related.
