General Notes: Husband - John Grubbs


At one time he owned a residence lot in Allegheny, Pennsylvania, which he traded for a large tract of land in Michigan, whither he moved. He married and had a son Francis, who was at one time president of a college in Salem, Oregon, whither his father and two uncles, William and David, had journeyed by wagon. Another of his sons, John Cloud, was a medical student and enlisted in the Union army during the Civil War, being assigned to scout duty on the staff of General Hooker; while engaging in some delicate work necessitated by his duties he was shot and narrowly escaped capture, regaining the Union lines in safety; after the war he graduated M.D. from the University of Michigan and practiced in the west.
