Individual Details

Jesse Murser Griffith

(April 20, 1891 - January, 1983)

"Ardella Griffith, et al, wife of J. M. Griffith, 1937." (Eastland County, Texas Deed? Book 342, page 536 and book 334, page 243. Need to check full record.)

"Jesse Mercer Griffith lived on the Sabana River. The first car he ever saw was on the Sabana River bridge." (Frank Griffith.)

Information on the family of Jesse Mercer Griffith from Comanche County birth records.

(NOTE FROM RALPH TERRY: Wayne Griffith gives Jesse's middle name as "Murser." Comanche County records show it spelled as "Mercer." As A. W. is his grandson, I would think he would know how Jesse spelled his name. There is a Deed? record in Eastland County, Texas ... "Ardella Griffith, et al, wife of J. M. Griffith, 1937, Vol 342, page 536 and Vol 334, page 243." I did not know the family connection at the time I found the record, so only copied the index listing.)
