Search for Brad Griggin look for note: (this should be Bird Griffin)

Creacy is the daughter of Catherine and Jackson Flowers.  See family unit 337
Search for Calley  This should be Creacy

Bird (Brad) listed again. I have found other documentation at the Clayton Library in Houston, TX, (Tax and Census Rolls for Smith County MS 1834+) that Bird Griffin, (actually spelled Bird Griffin and not Brad) 25 years old, was living with Robert and Martha Noblin in Smith County. Bird was first listed on 1849 MS Tax Roll owing a tax of .50 cents. Make the selection and go to HN & FN 328 Bird Griffin and the Noblin Family from Virginia

Roster Creacy and Bird are buried in the Ware/Markhum/Griffin Cemetery Roster
