In Reply to: Re: Levi Musgrave son of Burrell Musgrave and father of Jasper Newton Musgrave by SISSY MUSGRAVE of 1037

Hi, Sissy! I am also from Levi and Peggy. Their fifth son, Alexander, was the father of my grandfather James Oather Musgrave. My mom was his second child of five, and I am the oldest of her three.

I have the children of Robert Bengiman Lee. His son, Harm, found a list of Levi and Peggy's children back in the 80's and shared it with my mom (and she with me). Mom said that "Uncle Bob" had memorized and could quote much of the Bible.

I have no information beyond birth dates for the others you mention. I have found (on the LDS site) mention of a marriage license record in Texas Co., Mo., for Melcenia June and Bennett Lacy Grisham on 21 Jan., 1875. Cousin Harm's list includes two "Grishum girls" who both died in 1879, but he had no idea who they were. I have concluded (with some help from more experienced researchers) that Melcenia June Musgrave Grisham had a daughter, Marget E. Grisham (b.Jan 19, 1879; d. August, 1879), and then died from childbirth complications. (Gil Musgrave has our family "under construction" to add Marget E. to his musgravemanor.com files. I hope he has more to add.")

Anyway, I would like to discuss our connection more fully, if you are willing. I have noted postings from you on other sites and copied some of them into my files. Hope to hear from you soon.
