| Notes for Jonathan Granberry |
| The Granberrys probably first met the Travises in Pitt County, NC, where Simeon Travis and his wife Mary Ann Stafford were residing temporarily. Both families moved on to Warren County, GA, and stayed theree for a number of years, then m oved across Indian territory (Alabama) to Mississippi Territory. They settled f or a time in Amite County, Mississippi, then moved up to Hinds County when it o pened for settlement. The part of the Granberry Family that went to Mississ ippi was the children of Moses and Susannah and Elizabeth. All three sons of Mo ses and Susannah Dykes Granberry moved together into Hinds County, MS, and thei r descendants in that county and Copiah County are numerous. They settled on la nd that had been owned by the Collins Family before they moved on to Jasper Cou nty, then to Louisiana and Texas. Several of the children of Moses Granberr y and Elizabeth Dulaney went to Mississippi with the Travis parents from Georgi a. Jonathan and his sister Martha Jane each married Travis children, and moved into Hinds County and settled where the town of Learned is now located. Within a few years, they moved to Forrest County, MS near the Bowie River. Simeon Trav is and Mary Ann Stafford stayed there and are buried in an old cemetery on the banks of the Bowie. Jonathan Granberry and his wife stayed with them, and the G ranberry descendants in that part of Mississippi are numerous. His sister Marth a and husband Ezekiel Travis moved on to Jasper County when it was opened for s ettlement in 1833, and remained there the rest of their lives. One record s ays he died after 1850 in Forrest County, MS, while another gives an exact date in 1844 in Hinds County. |
