I did a quick look for John Grimes in Georgia and found a couple of very interesting things.
1.There was a John Grimes on the reconstructed 1790 Franklin County GA (northeast GA) census
2.There's a John Grimes in the 1805 Columbia County GA tax roll, on the same page with a Benjamin Tidwell and an Ann Tidwell.
Maybe the Mildred Grimes who married the Tidwell in Columbia County in 1797 (I think that's the right date) was related to this John.The dates made it look awfully like that Mildred could have been the wife of William Jr, (d. ca 1794) who came to GA with his brother John from Hanover VA.
The question is...who is this John Grimes and is he the same John who was the father of George and Benjamin in Baldwin County?
