Some online trees show Giles and Nancy having a daughter names both Elizaben and Eliza Ann...so perhaps they are indeed two different people. |

| 14925 | I2165 | McGrew | George Washington | Abt 1820 | Abt 1839 | 0 | Served in the Texas Army during the revolution of 1836. Also a Texas Ranger, and said to have been killed during an attempt to save 12 year Cynthia Ann Parker when she was captured by the Comanches. Per the book THE SOUTHERN McGREWS GREW he joined the Robertson Co Rangers to help protect against the Indians. The Indians attacked Ft. Marlin on January 16, 1839 and G. W. along with his brothers, Wm A and a brother in law David Armstrong Barton, went to help drive the Indians away. Jackson Powers had his horse shot from under him, so G.W. took him up behind him on his little pony. Powers brother saw this and came and took his brother up with him on a larger horse. The Indians caught up with G.W., the Powers, and David Barton, and killed G.W. and Barton. The Powers got away. G.W. and Elizabeth had a daughter born after his death. The widowed Elizabeth next married James B. Ware. She later married John Lynd. She probably died shortly after 1850, as Wm. Moss was guardian of her children. Wynema McGrew writes that George W. McGrew posthumously received Bounty Warrant 161 for 320 acres on 16 Dec 1846 for service from 29 Apr to 29 July 1839. In October1848, 320 acres in Freestone County were presented to him (or presumably his heirs as he died in 1839). |

Some additional information has been added to his work from loose papers owned by Mrs. Hardin and from the book THE SOUTHERN McGREWS GREW by Everette L. McGrew, 2106 Freeland Way, Dallas TX 75228. James witnessed the sale of property on March 30, 1770 in Tyrone County, North/South Carolina by Alexander Kilpatrick on both sides of the Pacelot River. This is near where his brother, John, had bought land October 9, 1770. The brothers left Tyrone County in 1778, with their wives and children, and settled in Mississippi. James settled, however, in the area of St. Stephens, Alabama, on the banks of the Tombigbee River. This was a remote area with few settlers. The boundaries of Washington County at that time were the Chattahooche River on the east, Pearl River on the west, the 31st parallel on the south, and 32 degrees, 28 minutes on the north. From this 25,000 square miles, 26 counties in Mississippi and Alabama were later formed. Many of these early settlers from the Carolinas and Georgia were in the territory as early as 1775, and as such were subject to the laws of the ruling Spanish Government. In keeping with Spanish regulations, the commandant of the Alabama Fort of San Esteban de Tombecbe compiled in 1797 a census of the settlers of the district. This list contained fifty-one (51) families; two of which were those of John and James McGrew. They became leaders of their settlement and were successful planters living on large plantations and active in early territory politics. James's brother, John McGrew, Sr., became on of the wealthiest planters in the south, owning approximately 4000 acres. On the 1808 tax rolls, he paid a tax of $25.05 on 29 slaves and a 640 acre section. Mrs. Hardin had in her papers a copy of a letter from The Catholic Center, Archdiocese of Mobile, Mobile, Alabama dated January 27, 1982. It showed the following baptism's: Ana (Nancy), Maria Casia (Keziah), Guillermo (William), Juan (John), children of Santiago (James) and Constancia Tibbett (Constance Tillet) Magrew, (Protestants). Dated 17 Nov 1788. Recorded Page 31, Bapt. Rcds. Bk #2. Under Spanish regulations all residents were required to have their children baptized by a Catholic priest, even if they were not Catholic. JAMES McGREW, had died in 1797 at the age of 57. According to THE SOUTHERN McGREWS GREW a James McGrew of St. Stephen's obtained a passport to go to Georgia on 8 January 1797. Possibly James died while on this trip? James's widow, Constance, and children petitioned the Congress of the United States of American for title to his land, since the original title had been a Spanish grant, and as of 1799 the territory had been taken over by the United States. John also petitioned for his land. Many letters were written to President Thomas Jefferson, and to the Congress of the United States. These were signed by John Flood McGrew, William McGrew, John McGrew, Sr, and John McGrew, Jr. [Col. John Flood McGrew was a member of the Territorial Council, and friend of Chief Pushmataha, chief of the Choctaw tribe]. These petitions were granted and full titles to the lands in question were given to the two McGrew families. John and his children prospered during the next few years, as did Constance McGrew and her grown children. Constance tried to also obtain a grant for an additional 604 acres of land, but was denied. She and her children later sold the 400 acres of their land to Wm. and John Pierce. Below, from the AMERICAN STATE PAPERS Volume 1, p. 686, is the summary of the hearing related to the land grant of James and Constantia McGrew in the Mississippi territory: The heirs of James McGREW, case no. 53 on the docket of the Board, and no. 73 on the books of the Register. Claim--Of 400 acres, by virtue of a Spanish warrant of survey, under the first section of the act.

Mobile, 12th January, 1788. James McGrew, inhabitant of this jurisdiction of Mobile, with the greatest respect to your excellency, represents and says, that there is on the Tombigee river ten acres of vacant land, which until now, has never been claimed by any proprietor; he begs your excellency to grant him, with the profounder customery, with papers of titles necessary from the Secretary of Government, that may correspond witht he concession; for which favor he will be forever thankful. (signed) James McGrew. Certified by Vicent Folch. . Both Wynema McGrew, the author of a book about the Descendants of James McGrew, and G.E. McGrew, 132 Lausanne Drive, Camden, SC 29020 suggest that the McGrews of South Carolina are from Omagh, County Tyrone, Ireland, and landed in Charleston SC in May, 1773. See LDS Alm(?) 874714, at the Orangeburg Historical Society in South Carolina. Esther McGrew Hardin instead speculates that the McGrew's might be descended from Quaker families originally from Pennsylvania. Many McGrew's can be found in Orange County, North Carolina records. Additionally, in the corner of Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Delaware, many members of the Blackburn, Means and McGrew families were all kin, a pattern of intermarriage between these families that continued for many generations. It is possible they came to Pennyslvania from Omagh. |

| 14960 | I2505 | McGrew | John | Abt 1739 | Abt 1818 | 0 | Wynema McGrew writes (p. 7) that it appears that John McGrew may have been a royalist and left the Carolinas in the mid to late 1770s, moving to the area that became the Mississippi Territory. He received a 1500 acre land grant from the Indians in 1782 and a Spanish land grant in 1787 between the Alabama and Tombigbee Rivers in what is now Alabama. According to Feldman's ANGLO-AMERICANS IN SPANISH ARCHIVES he was a resident of Tombecbe in 1781 (pg 34) and an American resident of Mobile on January 1, 1786 (pg 27). In the Rev. Ball's book titled "A Glance into the Great South-East, or, Clarke County, Alabama, and Its Surroundings, From 1540 to 1877" it was noted that "among the laws of 1807 was also an act for laying out a town in Washington county near Fort St. Stephens, (the streets to be not less than one hundred feet wide,) on the lands of Edwin Lewis; John Baker, James Morgan, and John F. McGrew, being appointed commissioners to lay out the town. In the same year the town of Natchez was incorporated----[settlers] came in wagons, through the Choctaw Indian Nation, finding rough roads, and being on the way twenty-five days. They brought with them a drove of three hundred hogs and a flock of about seventy-five sheep. They found cattle already, in Clarke, in abundance, McGrew alone having one thousand head. The nothern part of the county was then covered with cane which afforded excellent pasturage. Deer, and bears, and wolves, elsewhere mentioned, and also catamounts, called panthers, found hiding places in the tall cane. One of the panthers killed by this family measured nine feet from the tip of the nose to the end of the tail. The bears and the yellow and black wolves were destructive to their hogs. Small parties of Choctaws could talk broken English. The Indians, and also the American settlers cut the bee-trees in the woods and obtained wild honey." The Rev. Ball's book was originally published in Grove Hill, Alabama in 1882. It was reprinted by Photolithography by Willo Publishing Company, Tuscaloosa, Alabama in 1962, and a digital image of this reprint can be found on Ancestry. com at http://content.ancestry.com/Browse/BookList.aspx?dbid=22977 In his biographical sketch of the McGrew family (pages 347-349), the Rev. Ball wrote that "Two brothers, British royalists, William McGrew and John McGrew, were early settlers on the Tombigbee. They were probably refugees from the Atlantic coast settlement. The two brother have left the reputation of having been fine men and of having become good Americans. The active part taken by Colonel William McGrew in the Indian troubles and his death at the hands of the Indians on Bashi Creek will not be forgotten. It has been difficult to obtain clear and certain trace of the descendants of these brothers. Each seems to have left some sons. Major John McGrew, either one of these brothers or a son, in after years lived near Nanafalia. He was wealthy. His wife was a Miss Caller. It is said of her that she would often swim the Tombigbee on her horse Pomp if the flat boat was not of that side of the river where she wished to cross. Major McGrew of Nanafalia is said to have been an estimable man, spending however considerable money to keep his son out of trouble. The names are preserved of three sons, John, William, and Flood, and two younger sons are mentioned and some daughters. William McGrew and his cousin William McGrew have left an unenviable reputation for recklessness, and for an overbearing, tyrannical, and even cruel disposition. They were known in their day as Red-headed Bill and Black-headed Bill, and many are the reckless and insolent deeds attributed to them in the traditions of this region. Sometimes they met with just punishment. (The scene of the following incident has been placed up the river and on a flat-boat. Where it took place is therefore uncertain. The main facts are quite sure.) One of them, it is said, was one cold morning near the landing at Coffeeville, and a stranger coming to the river, McGrew ordered him to take a bath in the water. The stranger glanced at him for a moment and requested, as the water was quite cold, that he might return to his saddle bags and take a drink of whiskey first. To this McGrew assented, when the stranger, taking out of the saddle bags a pistol instead of a bottle, and again advancing remarked to McGrew that he might now enjoy the luxury of that cold bath. The steadily aimed pistol was a very convincing argument, and quite speedily but very unexpectedly McGrew was in the river while the stranger, pistol in hand, stood on the bank and enjoyed the change of situation and circumstances... Their bad behaviour was not always so lighthearted. Rev. Ball later writes that "After killing some boys they [the cousins McGrew] disappeared from the community. Their mad pranks and ruthless and bloody deeds to not obscure the virtues of the older and other members of this family, and ever with honor in the history of the Indian War of 1813 the name will live of Colonel William McGrew " According to THE SOUTHERN McGREWS GREW Red Headed Bill and Black Headed Bill were eventually captured, found guilty, and imprisoned around 1836 in Sumter County, Alabama. "Black Haired Bill" was the son of William McGrew and Nancy Hainesworth. Nancy married James Phillips after her husbands death. "Red Bill" was the son of Major John McGrew, Jr and Caroline A. Caller. John and Caroline became guardians of William and Nancy (Hainesworth) McGrew's son, "Black Haired Bill", when William died. They lived in Washington, Clarke, Marengo and Sumter counties, Alabama in the 1830's. |

Purchased land in Marion Co, MS on 6 Aug 1817 and on 31 Oct 1818 (THE SOUTHERN McGREWS GREW). Per Copiah County MS marriage records, John McGrew was a surity for J.M. Rowan and Mrs. Martha Lawhan, 2 Oct 1842, so this places the family of John McGrew in Copiah Co. It was probabaly his son, however, as he was deceased by 1836. Was in DeClouets Regiment during the War of 1812, and was in the Battle of New Orleans, along with his twin brother William. Per Nancy's pension application, he died in Covington, St. Tammany Parish, LA. Their is also a Covington Co, Mississippi where the family once lived. This could cause confusion in the records. |

Children names were obtained from both census records and a letter from Clara Manning, a descendant of Katherine McGrew McGuill to Esther McGrew Hardin. The McGrew's lived in Blanconia, just barely across the Refugio county line in Bee County. It was distinguished in the early days as being the headquarters of Sallie Scull, a notorious woman cattle operator and gunwoman. John McGrew was killed in a gunfight in front of a saloon in Refugio in 1876. According to Hobart Huson's book "Refugio": "Charles Berkowitz moved to Refugio and founded the famous "Bull's Head Saloon" at the southwest intersection of Alamo and Yabacion streets. It also had a gambling parlor associated with it. ..(perhaps the most noted gunfight) between John McGrew and Luke Porter. There was some sort of disagreement between the two men, and bullets began to spatter all over the place. The customers rushed to cover leaving a clear field to the principals. Present was a Mexican gambler, who with more courage than discretion tried to stop the melee. He stepped behind McGrew at the instant that a bullet from Porter's gund plowed through McGrew's body. The same bullet tore through the Mexican gambler's body and killed him." The footnote to this story cites W.L. Rea's "Memoirs." His wife Julia Hart, whose parents were early settlers in the Irish Colony in nearby San Patricio, Texas. Buried in Calvary cemetery. |

THE SOUTHERN McGREWS GREW shows he mustered out on 14 Oct 1846 at Milam. Could this be the John McGrue in Capt. Cameron's company in 1841? "J. McGrue pvt. enlisted in Capt. Ewen Cameron's Company in Texas. From ATTACK AND COUNTER ATTACK THE TEXAS MEXICO FRONTIER 1842 by Joseph Milton Nance p.630. Per H. Huson's book "Refugio" Capt. Cameron, and many of the men in his company were taken prisoner and marched to Mexico City. Of the 170 men captured, it was decreed 1 in 10 were to be shot. The men were forced to draw beans, and the 17 men who drew black were the ones shot. Capt. Cameron was so hated that he was shot anyway. On the 1850 census, he is shown as the head of the household, after his father had died the previous year. Wynema McGrew quoted Texas General Land Office records in the possession of Dr. Johnie L. Reeves "on the 17th day of May 1856, in Sabine County Texas, John G. McGrew, administrator of the Estate of Gabriel Blackburn, gave affidavit that the Headright Certificate for 1280 acres had been lost or destroyed." He may have also received a land grant in Shelby county, above Sabine, in the 1840s (tax roll records). |

| 14992 | I2436 | McGrew | Leonard Bradford | 25 Mar 1842 | 21 May 1903 | 0 | Wynema McGrew notes that Leonard was not easy to get along with, and had been asked by neighbors to move. He was rumored to have killed men, outside of combat, during the Civil War. Bruce Aultman, an attorney living in the Victory community in Lamar County suggested that Leonard was a Jayhawk (Union sympathizer) during the Civil War. He did serve in the Confederate Army, however, enlisting in Capt. H R McLaurin's Company (Co F, 27th Regiment, Mississippi Infantry) on 26 Aug 1861, the same day R. L. McGrew enlisted. He was discharged in Rome, Georgia on 11 Apr 1863 due to wounds to his hip and knee while at Shelbyville, Tennessee. He later served in Company E, 3rd Battalion, Mississippi Reserve Calvary from which he was paroled on May 16, 1865. He was a freemason and baptist for most of his life, but converted to Catholicism late in life, due to his many transgressions and the influence of his eldest daughter, Susanna, who had converted when she married, and Leonard was buried in the Catholic portion of the Williamsburg Cemetery. The cemetery name, per Find A Grave, was the Saint James Catholic Cemetery in Bassfield, Mississippi. His FindAGrave memorial page, crated by Fred Rose, has a photo of him in uniform and with a bayonet. http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=38991981 |
