THOMAS GRAVES
1645 Settler of Hartford, Connecticut and
Hatfield, Massachusetts
and His Descendants
GENERATION 1
Thomas Graves (1) was born before
1585 in England, and died Nov. 1662. He
married Sarah ‑‑‑‑‑‑. She died about four years after he did.
[According to Mrs. Ruth E.
Richardson, Mrs. Clara M. Turner, and other sources (although not verified by
this author), Thomas was from Gravesend, Kent Co., England, and came to America
with Gov. Endicott's Company. He was a
member of the Council, on the committee to lay out the town of Woburn, Mass.,
and one of the first town officers there.
His wife's name was Sarah Whiting, and she, 5 children and 2 servants
came with him and settled in New Haven, Conn. first, then Hartford. He was one of the founders of Hadley, Mass.
in 1645. They came to America on the
George Bonaventure which arrived in Salem, Mass. in 1629. Sarah died 17 Dec. 1666.[1]]
The first official record of the
family in this country was at Hartford, Conn. in 1645, when the family was
located there. Thomas owned three
separate pieces of real estate there, one described as being the one
"whereon his house standeth."
Isaac also took up his residence in Hartford and had land there. John took up his residence in Wethersfield,
the adjoining town, and it is probable that the three homes were not far
apart. The lands granted to John in
1652 were described as those "whereon his house standeth." Nathaniel also settled in Wethersfield,
where he married in 1655.
The family remained together as far
as it is known until the removal to Hatfield, Mass. The son Samuel never married, and probably did not live to
accompany the rest at the time of removal.
The family to which Nathaniel's wife belonged lived near him and were
largely interested in lands there, and for the sake of remaining near his
wife's relations, Nathaniel did not move with the rest of the family to
Hatfield.
The family at Hartford and
Wethersfield occupied a prominent position and took active part in political
and religious matters. They served on
juries, acted as surveyors and fence viewers, ran boundary lines between towns,
and generally filled those places that stalwart, intelligent and respected citizens
usually are called upon to fill. The
exception was that Thomas was exempted from "training, watching, and
warding" because he was over sixty, which was the age limit for that kind
of service.
From all that can be learned, the
family was prospering at Hartford as well as any family could in a new
country. There must have been some
strong reason that would induce them to give up their lands and houses and
enter upon a new life in an undeveloped country and suffer the hardships
incident to the undertaking, and we find it in the strong religious convictions
that impelled the early settlers in this country.
A schism had arisen in the church
at Hartford and Wethersfield, and the dissenters from the views entertained by
the majority concluded to break away from their homes and found a settlement
where their views would prevail.
We find it extremely difficult to
express our appreciation of the characteristics of the noble old head of this
family, Thomas Graves. His modesty,
together with the lapse of time, prevents us from mentioning many things about
his daily life that make biography so entertaining. We are therefore compelled to speak of and delineate those
qualities of heart and mind that become apparent to us from the standpoint of
his well-known ideas upon religious matters, in fact his close adherence to
what we now too often stigmatize as puritanism. It, however, hardly becomes us of the present to criticize too
closely the views entertained by that noble band of men who held so lovingly to
their theories that no conditions or inducements would make them swerve from
their conscientious views of the requirements of duty. It was really tantamount
to an express "thus saith the Lord" to them, for this was in many
instances the cause of their leaving their homes and personal friends in
England, and coming to our land that they might enjoy that freedom to worship
God in what they deemed the only true way.
And so when we find schismatic views of church polity were being
advocated, that they deemed destructive to the church of God, we find them again
ready to leave their pleasant surroundings in Hartford and seek new homes away
on the frontier of civilized life.
Perhaps we shall be excused if we
here state briefly the cause of the removal to Hatfield, Mass. A practice had grown up in the churches of
allowing persons who had been baptized, if not of a "scandalous
character," to consent to the covenant, and this permitted them to have
the sacrament of baptism administered to their infant children. On this question hot discussions were held,
as well as on some others of minor importance.
It was upon this division of sentiment that our ancestors determined to
move to Hatfield, animated by what they supposed was their bounden duty. Yet we cannot but be satisfied that these
pioneers knew that in their new undertaking they were to enter upon pleasant
places. They selected the beautiful and
fertile lands of the valley of the Connecticut for their new home, which have
more than fulfilled the most ardent expectations of the settlers.
But notwithstanding the advanced
age of Thomas Graves, we find him a promoter and organizer in this new country.
They left their houses and lands in Hartford and Wethersfield unsold, and
uniting themselves in a band of daring emigrants, started for their new home
with wives and children. Their
household effects were loaded on carts drawn by oxen, and they took with them
their domestic animals. The determined
cavalcade started out for their new homes.
It was not far from the middle of September 1661. The journey, of not over fifty miles,
occupied about ten days. Creeks and
brooks had to be crossed, swamps and morasses had to be avoided or crossed as
best they could be. They reached their
destination about the first of October 1661.
Exposed to all the dangers incident
to a frontier settlement, amid the habitations of wild beasts and wilder men,
the Indians, who lived in their immediate vicinity, and had a fort and village
only about two miles from where the settlement was made. Foremost among these hardy emigrants were
Thomas Graves, with his aged wife, and his two stalwart sons, Isaac and John,
with their wives and families of five children each. And now we find them without a house or place to lay their heads
and winter approaching rapidly. They at
once set to work to provide homes for their families and barns for their
animals. There were no saw mills to
manufacture the lumber, and the only method of sawing planks or boards was by
making a pit, and by using the cross-cut saw, with one man on the top of the
log, and one man in the pit. In this way a few boards were made that would
serve for tables and doors. The logs
were speedily shaped into convenient homes for the accomodation of these brave
people.
Thomas Graves was now an aged yet
honored member of this community, and from this time forward lived with the
family of his son Isaac. He was then
past his 76th birthday. He remained,
with his wife, in Isaac's family until his death in November 1662, a little
more than a year from the time of their moving to their new home.
It is very probable that a few of
these settlers at Hatfield had located there before the general removal. A committee had been appointed Jan. 1, 1661,
to lay out house lots in Hatfield, and it appears that Richard Fellows was
there early in 1661. It is quite
probable that each engager knew the number of his house lot. Thomas Graves was
not assigned any lands, but was counted in with Isaac, his oldest son, whose
estate was thus increased to 150 pounds, while his brother John's was voted at
100 pounds. This did not affect the
size or location of their respective house lots, as they were contiguous, but
did in the division of common lands. After the death of Thomas Graves, his son
Isaac administered upon his estate in Massachusetts, while his son Nathaniel
performed the same service upon his estate in Connecticut. His wife, Sarah, survived him for four
years, and Isaac administered upon her estate.
A very curious inventory of her effects is spread upon the probate
records at Northampton. Views of the lots
on which Thomas and his son Isaac located their house in Hatfield and the lot
on which John placed his new home there, together with general views of the
beautiful village of Hatfield, which the settlers had shown so much wisdom in
selecting, appeared as illustrations in the 1896 book by John Card Graves (R‑200).
All the children of Thomas were
born in England, and were all of mature age when they came to this country, the
youngest of the sons being about 16 years old.
There may only have been one daughter, rather than the two listed
below. (R‑200, R‑206)

GENERATION 2
CHILDREN OF THOMAS GRAVES (1)
AND SARAH ‑‑‑‑‑‑
Isaac Graves (2) was born probably
as early as 1620 in England, and died 19 Sept. 1677, killed in an Indian attack
on the Hatfield settlement. He married
Mary Church, daughter of Richard and Anna Church. She came from England in 1637, and died 9 June 1695.
He came to New England with his
father and settled in Hartford, Conn. before 1645. He was made freeman at General Court, Boston, Mass. 16 May 1669,
was Sergeant in the Colonial Militia, and Clerk of the Writs for Hatfield, to
which he moved in 1661. He was a
prominent man in his time, and one of the representatives of that portion of
Hadley (later Hatfield) who appeared before the General Court at Boston in
favor of separate church and town rights for Hatfield.
Isaac was a carpenter, and was a
resident of Wethersfield, Conn. before 1645.
He "keyed down" Goffe's Bridge in Wethersfield in 1648.
During the continuance of what is
usually called "King Philip's War", the inhabitants of these isolated
frontier towns were naturally filled with forebodings of danger to their homes
and families. For their own protection
and safety, the inhabitants of Northampton, Hadley and Hatfield practically
united for mutual defense and assistance.
These three town were occupied by troops from the eastern portion of the
Colony of Massachusetts Bay. At
Northampton 26 soldiers were located, at Hadley 30, and at Hatfield 36. This was the most exposed, as it was the
frontier town. Then they had a
committee, called a council of war, chosen from the several towns. Among the members was Sergeant Isaac
Graves. The object of this council of
war was to provide better security to the inhabitants of the several towns. They counselled with the commander, Major
Appleton, relative to the ways and means best to be used for the protection of
life and property.
On August 25, 1675, a scouting
party of ten was sent out and fell into an ambuscade, and nine were killed.
Then on the 17th of September, Captain Lathrop and his company and several
teamsters from Deerfield were attacked and massacred. Only a few escaped.
Sixty-four were buried in one grave as the result of the "Bloody
Brook" fight. Seventeen of the
sixty-four were Deerfield men. In
consequence of the numerous attacks by the Indians, the people, to better protect
themselves, built a stockade, probably in the atumn of 1675, composed of posts
of timber set in the ground, and about ten feet high. This stockade was built on both sides of Main Street, some twelve
or fifteen rods from the east and west lines of the street, extending north
from the Northampton road, not far from 100 rods. This stockade enclosed the bulk of the village. The houses of Isaac and John Graves were
within the stockade. Unfortunately for
them, on September 19, 1677, they were both employed in building a house for
John Graves, Jr., about half a mile above the northerly end of the stockade, on
a lot adjoining that of Sergeant Benjamin Waite. Without any warning or thought of danger, they were attacked by
the Indians, and Isaac and John were shot down while engaged, as one tradition
has it, "in laying shingles on the roof of the house," and with them
were likewise two other men who were working with them, John Atchinson and John
Cooper. Eight others were killed, and
we presume scalped, as the account speaks of them as being disfigured, and
seventeen were made prisoners. All but
one, Obadiah Dickinson, were women and children.
In the early vital records of
Hartford, Conn., the first 4 children of Isaac are given as being born there -
Mary on 5 July 1647, Isaac on 21 Aug. 1650, Rebecca on 3 July 1652, and Samuel
on 5 Oct. 1655. (R‑200)
Children - Graves
8. Mary Graves, b. 5 July 1647, m. Eleazer Frary,
28 Jan. 1665. It was previously
believed that this Mary Graves m(2) Joseph Haskell. However, it is much more likely that the Mary Graves who married
Joseph Haskell was a daughter of Mark Graves and Amy ‑‑‑‑‑‑
and a granddaughter of immigrant Samuel Graves of Lynn, MA (genealogy 83).
9. Isaac Graves, b. 22 (or 21) Aug. 1650, never
married, d. before 1677.
10. Rebecca Graves, b. 3 July 1652 (or 1653),
never married, d. before 1677.

1678, m(2) Deliverance ‑‑‑‑‑‑, 1 Jan. 1690,
d. 8 Feb. 1692.

Sunderland, Mass.), 27 April 1677, d. Sunderland.
13. Elizabeth Graves, b. 16 March 1661, m.
Benjamin Hastings, 1683, d. before 8 Feb. 1697. He was b. 9 Aug. 1659, m(2) Mary Parsons (of Northampton, Mass.),
d. 8 Feb. 1697 (Hatfield).
+14. John Graves, b. 1664, m. Sarah Banks, 26 Oct. 1686, probably d.

+16. Jonathan Graves, b. 24 Jan. 1666, m(1) Sarah Parsons, m(2) Mary
King, 19 July 1721, d. 12 Oct. 1737.
17. Mehitable Graves, b. 1 Oct. 1671, m(1) Richard
Morton (of Hatfield), 29 Jan. 1690, m(2) William Worthington, d. 22 March
1742. She moved to Colchester, Conn.
with William.
John Graves (3) was born about 1622
in England, and died 19 Sept. 1677. He
first married Mary Smith of Wethersfield, daughter of Lieut. Samuel Smith and
Elizabeth Chileab, probably about 1652.
She was born about 1630 in England, and died 16 Dec. 1668 (or 1665) in
Hatfield, Mass. She came from Ipswich
Co., Suffolk, England to Watertown, Mass. in 1634.
He secondly married Mary Wyatt of
Haddam, Conn., daughter of John Bronson, and widow of John Wyatt of Haddam,
probably on 20 July 1671. (Either the
date of his first wife's death is too early or the date of his marriage to his
second wife is too late, since his last child was born between these two
dates.) Mary thirdly married Lt. Willis
Allis in 1678. She married Samuel
Gaylord as her fourth husband on 16 March 1681.
John Graves owned land in Hartford
and Wethersfield, which he retained when he moved to Hatfield, Mass. in
1661. He was a man of probity and
education, and was employed in 1655 and again in 1659 to run the boundary line
between Wethersfield and Mattabessett (now Middletown). He exchanged land with John Goodrich about
1645. He bought the land of John
Coultmans and also that of Gregory Gibbs.
He and his brother, Sergeant Isaac
Graves, were killed by Indians in an attack on Hatfield, 19 Sept. 1677. After
his death, his widow thirdly married Lieut. William Allis on 25 June 1678. She fourthly married Samuel Gaylord.
John's first five children were
born in Wethersfield, Conn. and his last five children were born in Hatfield,
Mass. (R‑1, R‑200)

Nathaniel Graves (5) was born about
1629 in England, and died 28 Sept. 1682 at Wethersfield, Conn. He married Martha Betts, daughter of John
and Mary Betts, on 16 Jan. 1655. She
was born in 1625 in England, and died 13 April 1701. He settled in Wethersfield and was made a freeman there 21 May
1657, was surveyor there in 1661, a fence viewer in 1669, and drew lands in
1670. He had a homestead on the east
side of Broad Street, Wethersfield, in 1659.
In 1662, John Betts of Wethersfield conveyed to him 23 acres of land,
and in the deed calls him "his brother." Nathaniel settled the estate of his father in Conn. ("House
lot of 3 acres whereon he liveth," and other lands granted to him in Wethersfield)
between 1645 and 1652. The inventory of
Nathaniel's estate, dated 30 Oct. 1682, amounted to 439 pounds, 2 s., 2 d. (R‑200)

Bradfield. They moved to Branford,
Conn. He was probably a son of Lesly
Bradfield.
29. Mary Graves, b. 11 Nov. 1658, m. John Deming,
5 Jan. 1684. He was b. 9 Sept. 1658 and

"drummer", and was a son of Sergeant John, and grandson of John
Deming.

33. Abigail Graves, b. 15 Oct. 1669, m. Ebenezer
Belden (son of John and Lydia Belden or Belding).
Mary Graves (7) was born in
England. She married Moses Ventrous (or
Ventris or Ventres) on 14 Jan. 1646/7 in Hartford, Conn. There is some uncertainty about Mary's name,
and even whether she is a Graves. The
Hartford Times, 18 July 1966 states: Moses Ventrous married Grace ‑‑‑‑‑‑
on 14 Jan. 1647. A marriage record at
Hartford states the same thing.
Judd's History of Hatfield, Mass. says Moses Ventrous married 14 Jan. 1647
Mary Graves, daughter of Thomas Graves who married Sarah ‑‑‑‑‑‑. Another source mentions a possible daughter
of Thomas Graves named Mary or Elizabeth.
A note from the Gates-Dawes Memorial says Moses, William
and Elizabeth Ventrous were probably children of William Ventrous.
Moses Ventrous was born about 1625
in Farmington, Conn. His will was dated
1693, and the inventory of his estate was dated 12 April 1697 in Hartford,
Conn. (R‑3)

Samuel Graves (21) was born about
1657 at Wethersfield, Conn., and died 11 March 1731 (or 15 Oct. 1734) in
Sunderland, Mass. He married Sarah ‑‑‑‑‑‑

1734. He moved from Hatfield, Mass. to
Sunderland about 1725, and was one of the first 40 settlers in Sunderland. All their children were born in Hatfield.
It was previously incorrectly
stated that this Samuel Graves married Sarah Colton, daughter of George Colton
of Longmeadow, MA and Lydia (Wright) Graves.
However (as reported in Graves Family Newsletter, 1993, page
127), information from New England Marriages Prior to 1700 by Clarence
Ammon Torrey shows that this is not correct.
The Samuel Graves who married Sarah Colton was #11, son of Isaac Graves
and Mary Church. (R‑200, R‑206)

(son of Joseph Waite and grandson of Benjamin Waite).
115. Elizabeth Graves, b. 14 May 1721, m. Timothy
Cole, 11 Sept. 1777 (as his second wife).
Thomas Graves (43) was born 21 Nov.
(or 22 Oct.) 1690 in Hatfield, Mass., and died about 1 Jan. 1713/14. He died sometime between 11 Dec. 1713, the
date of his will, and 5 Jan. 1713/14, the date his widow exhibited an inventory
of her husband's estate. His will named
his wife and only child.
He married Sarah Morgan, daughter
of Thomas Morgan and Rachel Merry. She
was baptized 24 May 1696 in Hartford, Conn., and died 3 May 1718. She died before completing the final
accounting of Thomas Graves' estate. As
a result of Sarah's death, Thomas Morgan (her father) was appointed legal
guardian of Deliverance Graves, a minor (Early Connecticut Probate Records,
Hartford District, 1635-1750, II, p. 209; original records, vol. IX, p. 78).
Sarah secondly married Jobannah Smith on 26 Sept. 1714.
In previous publications (including
John Card Graves, Genealogy of the Graves
Family in America, vol. 1; and Lucius Boltwood, Genealogies of Hadley Families), this Thomas Graves and his second
cousin, son of John Graves and Sarah White, were confused. Lucius Boltwood incorrectly assumed that the
records of Thomas, son of John, belonged to Thomas, son of Samuel. It was Thomas, son of John, who married
Lydia Graves and later moved to Belchertown, where he died.
The age of Boltwood's Thomas at
death (Hadley Genealogy, p. 60, #12) does not agree with the birthdate of
Thomas, the son of Samuel, as it should if Boltwood's assumption were
valid. It does agree, however, with the
birthdate of Thomas, son of John.
Another indication of Boltwood's
error is that the Thomas, who moved to Belchertown, sold Hatfield land that
came to him originally from John Graves (Hampshire Co. land records). The children of the Belchertown Thomas were
named John and Lydia, probably named for Thomas' father and wife. Finally, Thomas, son of John, was alive in
Jan. 1730/31, when the will of his father John was proved. Thomas, son of Samuel, had died about 1 Jan.
1713/14.
Deliverance, daughter of Thomas and
Sarah, may have been named for her grandmother Deliverance, wife of Samuel
Graves. (R‑200, R‑205)

d. 1848. See #617 for descendants.

Jesse Graves (230) was born 7 March
1730 in Sunderland, Mass. (Sunderland town records), and died before Oct. 1777
as a British prisoner of war at Ft. Ticonderoga, Essex Co., N.Y. (pension
record of son Nathaniel). He married
Catherine Scott, daughter of Samuel Scott and Elizabeth ‑‑‑‑‑‑,
on 3 May 1754 in Sunderland. She was
born 19 May 1737 in Sunderland (town records), and died before 1777 (?) in
Rupert, Vt. (?) (pension record of son Nathaniel).
They lived in Sunderland until
about 1768, and then moved to Bennington, Vt.
Jesse Graves appeared on a list of the estates and inhabitants of
Sunderland, Mass., 11 July 1763; mentioned in description of highway laid out,
12 March 1767, in Sunderland. He
appeared on a Bennington, Vt. petition to the Governor of New Hampshire, dated
Oct. 1769. Catherine Scott's brothers,
Samuel, Oliver, Phineas and Moses, had moved to Bennington, Vt., in 1762. Oliver Scott was one of the first settlers
of Rupert, Vt. in 1767. Rupert town
records of the town meeting of 4 April 1780: "this meeting has confirmed
to Phineas Sheldon that of land which Oliver Scott gave to Jesse Graves as a
freeman of that town in 1778."
There is no trace of this transaction in Rupert land records, however. A "Resolution in Re Petition of
Nicholas Turner," dated 16 Oct. 1778: "On petition of Nicholas Turner
late of Reuport in Bennington County ... Resolved ... give a Deed to said
Turner ... a certain lot of land ... West on land holden by the heirs of Jesse
Graves deceased...."
The Revolutionary War pension
application of his son Nathaniel Graves stated: "That in the summer of
1777, he resided in the town of Ruport in the state of Vermont with his brother
and three sisters (his mother being dead some years before) and his father went
into the service in the forepart of the season on the approach of Burgoyne's
Army and was in the battle of Hubbardton, Vermont where the Americans were
defeated by a detachment of Burgoyne's Army and Col. Warner's Regiment north
cut off and his father was taken a prisoner by the British and carried to
Ticonderoga where he was taken sick and died, and that this declarent with his
brother two years older than himself and his three sisters retreated from
Ruport aforesaid on the general alarms and retreat of the inhabitants of Vermont
immediately after 'Hubbardton battle' and were scattered among their relatives
and friends in the town of Bennington, Vt. where he lived during the war except
out in service." No records seem
to exist showing the militia who fought at the battle of Hubbardton. The Graves children apparently did not seek
any compensation from the towns of Rupert or Bennington, nor the state of
Vermont. No probate of estate seems to
exist.
Jesse Graves also appeared as a
freeman in the town records of Manchester, Vt., probably in 1777 (records are
virtually unreadable). No record of the
birth of Nathaniel appeared in Sunderland town records nor of a younger (?)
sister, but both were probably born there. Rupert, Vt. town records are
nonexistant before 1780 (the Tory town clerk took them when he left town). No further record of Jesse Graves appeared
in the Rupert, Bennington, or Manchester town records after 1780.
It appears that John Card Graves (R‑200)
confused two different Jesse Graveses and made one family out of two. According to John Card Graves, Jesse
secondly married Martha ‑‑‑‑‑‑, who died 6
May 1801 in Charlemont, Mass., and thirdly married widow Elizabeth
("Betsey") Lathrop of Montague, Mass., 27 May 1802 in Montague. Elizabeth died 6 Feb. 1828 in Charlemont at
age 59, and Jesse died 14 Jan. 1819 in Charlemont, Mass. A Jesse Graves tombstone in the Charlemont
cemetery shows this death date but gives his age as 61, indicating a birth date
of about 1758 rather than 1730. It is
not known at this time who this other Jesse Graves was who married Martha and
then later married Elizabeth Lathrop.
The Revolutionary War pension
papers of William Graves say, "He was born in Sunderland, Massachusetts
the 2 Decem 1760." His papers also
say, "In 1778 he lived in Rupert, Vermont.... Since the Revolutionary War
he has lived entirely in Castleton and West Haven." Although there is no absolute proof, the
most likely person listed in the Sunderland records as being William Graves is
Billy Graves, son of Jesse and Catherine Scott Graves, born 2 Sept. 1760. The published records say, "Billy died
young," but no official record of his death has been found.
Two interesting deeds are the
following: (1) Record of Nathaniel and William Graves deed from Simeon Sears,
".... by Nathaniel Graves of said town and state (Bennington, Vt.) and
William Graves otherwise Bill Graves of Ruport ...." Joseph Holmes was the original grantee. (2) Record of Simon Graves deed from William
and Nathaniel Graves, Aug. 2, 1783.
".... William Graves of Castleton ... and Nathaniel Graves of
Bennington ....," dated 27 Sept. 1789.
The description of the land is identical to the description for the land
in the first deed. These two deeds
indicate the good possibility of Nathaniel and William (Bill) being brothers.
Another piece of evidence is that
William named his first son Jesse (possibly after his own father); his second
son was Israel (after his wife's father); his third son was Nathaniel (after
his brother?); and his fourth son was Oliver (after his mother's father or
brother?).
The birth records in Sunderland,
Mass. for Jemima, Zilpah and Billy show them listed in consecutive order, which
indicates they were all recorded at one time.
No other children are listed for Jesse and Catherine Graves, which indicates:
(1) they didn't have more, (2) they didn't bother to record them, or (3) they
had already left for Vermont when more children were born. The third possibility seems most likely,
especially considering that the early records for Rupert were lost. (R‑24, R‑46)

Silas Graves (232) was born 10 Nov.
1736 in Sunderland, Mass. He first
married Hepzibah Scott, daughter of Joseph Scott and Margaret Belding of
Whately, Mass., on 14 Nov. 1758. She
was born in 1764 (this date is obviously wrong) and died in 1776. She may have been a daughter of William
Scott, Jr. and Rachel ‑‑‑‑‑‑ (R‑21).
Silas secondly married Elizabeth ("Jennie") Frizzell of Montague,
Mass. on 29 Aug. 1776.
He lived in Sunderland until after
the birth of his first child, then moved to Deerfield, then to Montague, and
later to some point unknown. He was in
the Regt. of Col. Ephraim Williams in the French war in 1755, and was wounded
in the battle near Lake George, known as the "Bloody Morning Scout",
in which Col. Williams was killed. He
was in Capt. Robert Oliver's Co., Col. Doolittle's Regt., in the Rev. War in
1775. In May 1776 he was a Lieut. in
the 8th Co., 6th Hampshire County Regt.

Zenas Graves (284) was born 28 Jan.
1752 at Westfield, Mass., and died in 1820 at Cambridge, Dearborn Co., IN. He married Hannah (possibly Franklin[2])
in 1776. She died in Cambridge,
Dearborn Co., IN. He was in the Rev.
Army in Capt. Silas Fowler's Co., and served as a fifer with the Minute Men in
1775. They lived in Sunderland, Mass.,
where their first two children were born.
They then moved to Vermont near Wells in Rutland Co., near the border
with N.Y. state.
It was probably after 1808
(possibly as late as 1810-1815) that Zenas Graves started west with his sons,
Franklin Ward, Horace, and probably also Larantus. They went down through the state of New York until they came to
the headwaters of the Ohio River. At
that point, they built flat boats on which they floated down the river to
Kentucky.
They stopped for a while in
Kentucky before moving on to Cincinnati, Ohio.
From Cincinnati, they went over into Dearborn Co., Ind. Zenas moved to a little place known as
Cambridge or Pella, a few miles from Lawrenceburg. He and his wife were buried there in a cemetery now deserted, of
which there are no records and where no headstones exist.
Descendants of Franklin Ward
Graves, son of Zenas, said they were told that Franklin was his mother's maiden
name.
Zenas' oldest child Horace named
his sons after his brothers. Thus,
there was a Franklin Ward Graves, Jr., who was the son of Horace Graves. The Graves of the Donner party of 1846 were
the family of F. W., Sr.
Unfortunately, there is some
confusion today about exactly how many children Zenas had, and what happened to
them all. By most accounts, in addition
to Horace, Rachel, William and Franklin Ward, he had a son Larantus who was
also called Rantus.
There is a Francis Graves buried on
the William Graves lot in the Caledonia Cem. in Putnam Co., Ill. This is presumed to be Larantus. (R‑48, R‑64, R‑84, R‑200)
