William Lawrence Grigsby
Hi, I am attempting to locate the parets of William Lawrence Grigsby born 1 Aug 1879 in Mississippi (don't know where). He died 6 Jan 1967 in Rayville, Louisiana.
I am told his father was Calvin Grigsby born abt 1859 in Alabama and his mother was Malinda Jane Anderson,(or Cobb,it appears she may have been adopted by the Cobb family she was living with)born May 1860 in Mississippi.
My problem is this : I have found William in Yell County, Arkansas, where he grew up, but the census record lists his surname as Bigbee(or Bigby) father Calvin, mother Malinda. I can't find anything on a Calvin GRIGSBY anywhere. Not in Mississippi or Arkansas ..but did find a Calvin Bigby, wife Jane !! The marriage record of William Lawrence in Arkansas lists his surname as Grigsby !! So, I am wondering which name is correct ..Grigsby or Bigby. This one has me stumped !
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kathy
