| 5940 | South Danville. Ravages of tuberculosis after illness of long time. Suffering nearly two years with consumption, John R. Gritton, well known resident of South Danville, died at his home 110 West Third street at 10:30 o'clock Thursday morning, Oct. 15, 1914. Mr. Gritton was born in Blount township Jan. 2, 1861, being 53 years of age at his death. He was reared on a farm and for many years was a farmer, coming to this city several years ago. He gradually became unable to work regularly, each year brining him gradually nearer the time when he was entirely too weak to perform any kind of work, this being about two years ago. His wife died several years ago following a long illness. He is survived by two sons, Ernest and Ross and a daughter, Miss Grace Gritton. The funeral will be held from the home, 110 West Third street, South Danville, at 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon. Newspaper clipping from Cora (Gritton) Hedges.

| 5941 | Southern Campaign American Revolution Pension Statements & Rosters Pension application of John Gritton S13203 fn36PA/VA Transcribed by Will Graves 10/2/11 [Methodology: Spelling, punctuation and/or grammar have been corrected in some instances for ease of reading and to facilitate searches of the database. Where the meaning is not compromised by adhering to the spelling, punctuation or grammar, no change has been made. Corrections or additional notes have been inserted within brackets or footnotes. Blanks appearing in the transcripts reflect blanks in the original. A bracketed question mark indicates that the word or words preceding it represent(s) a guess by me. Only materials pertinent to the military service of the veteran and to contemporary events have been transcribed. Affidavits that provide additional information on these events are included and genealogical information is abstracted, while standard, 'boilerplate' affidavits and attestations related solely to the application, and later nineteenth and twentieth century research requests for information have been omitted. I use speech recognition software to make all my transcriptions. Such software misinterprets my southern accent with unfortunate regularity and my poor proofreading fails to catch all misinterpretations. Also, dates or numbers which the software treats as numerals rather than words are not corrected: for example, the software transcribes "the eighth of June one thousand eighty six" as "the 8th of June 1786." Please call errors or omissions to my attention.] State of Kentucky Mercer County viz.: On this 3rd day of December 1832 personally appeared in open court before the Justices of the County Court of Mercer now sitting John Gritton a resident citizen of said County & state aged 76 years who being first duly sworn according to law doth on his oath make the following declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the act of Congress passed the 7th day of June 1832, That he entered the service of the United States under the following named officers and served as herein stated - viz.: I John Griffin do hereby state on oath in answer to the several interrogatories put by the court according to the direction of the War Department, That I was born in the town of Winchester & State of Virginia in the year 1755 as I my parents informed me, and my parents removed to West Moreland County Pennsylvania when I was about fifteen years of age and I lived on the Youghegany River [Youghiogheny River] in that state when I was called into service of my country as follows, in the month of May 1775 I was drafted in Captain John Rice's Company of Colonel Broadhead's Regiment for four months and was marched to a place six miles above what was called the Turkey Foot settlement and built a Fort called Hoagland Fort where I was stationed until my time expired which was four months and I was honorably discharged. My next tour was in the fall of the same year I volunteered in a company of Rangers commanded by Captain Drake for three months and we marched to Conemaugh River in said state and ranged on that River and adjacent frontiers until my time expired and we were discharged. And again in the year 1776 after harvest I again volunteered in Captain Drake's company of Rangers on another tour of three months and we marched up to a place called the Glades then on the waters of Turtle Creek and Youghegany River on these Frontiers of Westmoreland County until our time expired and I was again discharged - we had no Colonel with us in either of those tours but were ordered into service by Colonel Broadhead who was our principal officer in our County. My next tour was in the month of January 1777 I again volunteered in Captain Drake's Company of Rangers for one month In order to take some deserters from the main Army we marched to the Glades and several other places in the neighborhood of Bedford and took several, and others came in and delivered themselves up at Bedford in our time expiring I was discharged. Again in the month of August 1778 I performed a tour of duty of one month as a volunteer in a company of Rangers or Indian spies under Captain Kilgore and we marched to Cheat River where we ranged until I time expired and I was discharged and again in the fall of 1778 I performed another tour of one month as a volunteer Ranger in Captain Brown's Company to a place called the [indecipherable word] Glades where we ranged until my time expired and I was discharged. In 1779 I was employed in building boats on the Youghegany River and in the month of April 1780 I sailed down the Ohio River to the falls of that River, and in the month of July of that year I volunteered in Captain Mcgary's Company at Mcgary's Station now in Mercer County for three months on an expedition then about to March under Colonel Geo. R Clark [George Rogers Clark] against the Indians and we marched to the mouth of Licking and from thence to a place then called Piqua on Mad River a Branch of the Big Miami which place we burnt and destroyed after we had a severe conflict with the Indians and at the expiration of my time I was honorably discharged. Again in the fall of 1782 I volunteered in Captain James Ray's Company on another campaign and tour of three months against the northern Indians under Colonel or General George R. Clark and we marched across the Ohio at the mouth of Licking about the first September and thence to Piqua on the Big Miami which place we took and burnt several other towns after a severe conflict with the Indians - previous to this time in the year 1781 I performed a tour of two months as an Indian spy at McMurtry's Station in Kentucky now Mercer County, under Captain Ray, and one month at Mcgary's station in the summer 1781, and one month at the mouth of Salt River. At Mcgary's I served under Captain John Gordon, and at the mouth of Salt River under a Lieutenant whose name I cannot recollect at this time but I solemnly aver that I actually performed the tours of duty and services as above specified, and I know of no person now alive by whom I can prove my services in the State of Pennsylvania, and my services in the State of Kentucky I believe I can prove by General James Ray1 and James Hutton2 - I further declare that I have no documentary evidence of my services as I have long since lost my discharges and I am not now a pensioner of the United States nor of any state and I hereby relinquish all claim that I may have to any pension or annuity except the present.

I also well recollect at that time the said Gritton told me of his services in the Western parts of Pennsylvania on the Youghegany River as he has detailed in his declaration which I have read.

| 5950 | Stephen Spencer Shumate (II). He was born in Kentucky circa 1794 and is believed to have died sometime prior to 1784. On 23 march 1819, he married Sarah (Sally) Keith in Harrison County, Kentucky. His name appears in the personal Property Tax Lists of Harrison County, Kentucky, from 1821 through 1829. Although his name does not appear in the tax lists from the period 1830 through 1850, the 1830 and 1850 Federal Census Indexes list him as being a resident of Harrison County. There is some speculation he may have lived in Fayette County after 1830, but the census and other records do not support this contention. There is no further record of him. Th write believes the issue (i.e. sixth generation of Stephen Spencer Shumate (II) and his wife Sarah (Keith) was as identified below but has no confirming documentary evidence. 2A1 A1.
