Elizabeth & Johnson Granville To USA
« on: Sunday 14 March 10 02:33 GMT (UK) »
hello,

Wondering if someone might be able to help. Elizabeth (nee Paget) (b 1843 Exeter) and Johnson Granville (b 1842) emigrated to USA and arrived about
December 1869. They had four children : Joseph John (b 1865), Johnson (b 1866), Elizabeth (1867) and Wiliam George (b 1868) - all born in Bridgend, Glamorgan, Wales.

I have tried looking for them, including spelling variations,  but nothing so far. They might have settled in Pennsylvania.

Any information would be much appreciated. Thankyou.

On 6th December 1881 Johnson GRANVILLE took out US Citizenship in the Territory of Arizona.  He made his mark so he did not write.

Hello karenlee & merjones,

That is wonderful, thankyou. Most interesting details.

I note in 1880 Census that Johnson's wife is now called Mary. Did Elizabeth die? Also, what happened to Johnson Jr (b 1866) as in 1880 census there is another Johnson, born 1874. Since posting this thread, I have discovered a photo of the grave of this Johnson Granville (1874-1927) at New Miner's UMW of A Cemetery, Roundup, Montana.

So pleased though with the information that you have both provided. Thanks again.
