THANK YOU!!!Thank you so much for this information.As it happens I did not know what happened to William Grills, but did assume, because of his disappearance in the 1870 census - that he had died in the war.
Jane Overbay Grills and William Grills are my great great grandparents.They were the parents of Sarah Elizabeth Grills Smith - my grandfather's mother.Sarah Elizabeth married William Henry Smith in 1880.
If you don't mind my asking (since you are the first person who has ever known anything about this man William Grills)- where did you find information that William was captured several times and then died of starvation?Do you know his middle name or initial?I'd love to know more about Jane also - if you know it.
Are you and I kin?Do you descend through Jane and William Grills?
Thanks again
Dusty Smith
