Frederick Dent Grant
Posted by: Larry Myers (ID *****9935) Date: May 28, 2011 at 11:01:48
  of 1628

The son of President Grant married to the sister of Potter Palmer's wife. The Heinz History Center in Pittsburgh wants to say these Dents were from Pittsburgh. I have a record that General Grant was the head pall bearer to Union General Alexander Hays funeral at Allegheny Cemetery in Pittsburgh after General Hays was killed during the Civil War.

Then General Grants daughter was a brides maid to Minnie Sherman the daughter of General William Tecumseh Sherman.

The Pittsburgh Social Register of 1877 states Minnie Sherman lived in Pittsburgh with her husband Lt Fitch.

So who are these Pittsburgh Dents connected to Frederick Dent Grant?
