Need death/burial information for Catherine Frederick Grimes, and any other information. She migrated to Cherokee County, Texas, from Coffee County, Alabama after 1850 with many of her Coffee County Grimes kin. She is listed in the 1860 Cherokee County cenus, PO at Rusk, Beat 8.
Catherine Frederick was born 6 Dec 1795 in Duplin Co., NC and married John Grimes in Duplin County, NC 23 Dec 1813. The couple migrated to Stewart County, Georgia, where John died in 1837. Catherine with many of the Grimes relatives migrated to Coffee County, Alabama after John's death. She and her children are found in the 1850 Coffee County, Alabama census.
As I understand it, quite a few of this greater Grimes family of Duplin County had already migrated to Cherokee County, Texas. One of the earlier of this family to migrate to Texas was Jesse Grimes, who arrived before the Texas Revolution, and was a signer of the Texas Declaration of Independence. Grimes County, Texas was named after him.
So, I am really trying to find out what happened to Catherine Frederick Grimes after 1860.
