This is how I have the family. Please tell me of any errors and don't trust
this too much as it is not my line, but just what I have. My wife descends
from Jesse who moved to Ohio.
William apparently was an attorney and handled the estate of his father John
Weston Holt.

Can anyone confirm this for me? Were any of the girls married twice?
Thanks!

Martha was born late 1840s. I have no information on Joseph, but wonder if there could be a relationship to the Joseph Grant that started Grant Funeral Home. Looking for any information on she and Joseph's children. Also, would like to know where she and Joseph are buried. Any info. would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Seeking any info on my mother's first husband: SAMUEL EDWARD COLE who
was born in Cherry Hill (or Pleasant Hill) Cecil Co., Maryland in
1885. He married my mom in Hartford CO., in Aug. 1917 and they moved
to Newark, DE. where they both worked as paper mill employees. Cole
had to regiister for thr WW-1 draft in June 1918 but he was on some
kind of sick leave. By 1919 they were separated and my mom moved
back to Hartford where she had a son, Henry in Sept. 1
Jesse Kennard Simpers 11/26/1837-2/28/1921 and Ellen D. (Boulden) Simpers 8/1844 - 5/9/1844
Their son Robert Carter Simpers was born about 1869. Will Index says he died 1944. Anyone have a more exact date of death for him? He's supposed to be buried at North East Methodist Cemetery, but I haven't been able to find him yet.
Their daughter, Victoria H. Warrington, died in 1910. Anyone have an exact date of death for her?
Thanks so very much!!!

Melissa,
The father of Joseph Grant of Grant Funeral Home was Clark Spencer Grant and
his grandfather was William J. Grant of Cherry Hill, MD. There may be a
family connection if you go back a few generations. I understand there were
several "Grant's" around Cherry Hill, MD.
If you can make it to the Historical Society of Cecil County on a Tuesday
evening (6:00 - 8:30), ask for Lucia Demond, she is a volunteer and the
daughter of Joseph Grant of the funeral home family.
