Samuel Gracy and Rachael Snivley were my ggg grandparents.
They also had a daughter, Emily Gracy that married Jacob A. Smith my gg grandparent(I have a copy of a tin type of Jacob Smith and Emily Gracy)Jacob and Emily had 12 children, one of which was my great grandmother, Phoebe Orpha Smith.Phoebe married Ellsworth Courtney and their son, Howard Courtney was my grandfather.I am very much interested in information on the Gracy's.I understand that Samuel Gracy's father was from Ireland.Does anyone have his name or birthdate and when he arrive in America.
Emily and her father show up in census reports without the "e" in their name.Was it dropped by Samuel or was it a mis-spelling?
