Early GRISSO spelling.....GRESA? GREZA?
Researching a French line that ends with Jean Baptiste Gresa dit Capitaine, b. abt 1740.Jean Baptiste was a fur trader between Ohio and St. Louis, Missouri (his children went by the CAPTAIN surname).I'm trying to get a connection with the GRESA name and wonder if it is an early spelling of Grisso?Are any of you Grisso researchers familiar with the spelling as GRESA or GREZA?
