Pike County, AL
I am posting this for Mitchell Grissett.My email address is [email protected]
RE: Marion R. Pike County, AL - the 'telling' will be in Marion's death date, I believe.
I have been in communication with some Grissetts in FL who descend from Marien 'Jimmie' Grissett.Strangely enough, I believe that he and marion R. of Pike County, AL, may be one and the same. Marien 'Jimmie' was found in the 1880 US Federal Census for Dale County, AL
Census Place: Brannans, Dale, Alabama

This is the same Marien as the FL Marien;Lucinda Brooks first name was Catharine (and not Cynthia);a census for 1830 shows Milly Brooks, sister of Lucinda living with Lucinda and George Russ.Eli m. Brooks is found living next door to Joannah, Marien and Lucinda's daughter.
Marien/Marion both born in 1845.(So is Pike Marion R.)
Marien/Marion married 1876 ir 77 to Catharine Lucinda.
Marien/Marion have been married before.
Marion R.'s wife, Catherine Allen, d. 1871.
Marien/Marion's wife d. of a snake bite before 1876.
Marien/Marion is found on the 1880 US Census;
Marion R. is not found on the 1880 census
Marien/Marion has a daughter named Josephine (she is Joannah - both birth dates are 1880.)
Marien/Marion b. have son named james M.
Marien/Marion was dead by 1884 when his widow married Geo. Russ.
I think when Marion R. Grissett's death cert is found it will be between August of 1880 and 1884. Can someone access that information?What about the pension application>
Marion/Marien was close to Pike County in 1880.
