Name first appeared in the 1837 tax list of Henry Co., KY . Next in the marriage records of Decatur Co. Indiana an d still there in 1840 and 1850 federal census . Left $2.5 0 by James, his father. Left $1.00 by her father because h e did not want them to leave Indiana. In July 1855 Granvill e bought a lot in Mt. Sterling for $ 966.10 on Main and Cro ss streets from the estate of James Brockman. On this prope rty were a store and a warehouse. He was appointed postmas ter in Sept. 1858, served until April 1861. They were ther e in the 1860 census.
He seemed to be very apt at buying a selling property a t a profit. He was elected to and assumed the position o f sheriff of Brown Co. in the fall of 1866. Two of his son s had served in the Civil War. His term in that office wa s short lived, since his death came the following February . James Thomas took over the distribution of the estate, an d was the only one who continued to live in Mt. Sterling. N ewspaper clippings from the Mt. Sterling "Record" of thei r OBITS were found in Granville Jr's. bible in Denton, TX . After the deaths of Granville and Eleanor, leaving fou r adult and two minor sons , James B. Moore, a partner of G ranville in a lumber business petitioned the court and wa s granted the right to be executor of the estate believed t o be worth $ 15,000.00 or more. The first monies spent wer e the digging of two graves in Mt. Sterling public cemeter y and purchase of two cloth covered coffins with full tri m for $ 175.00. That was designated as the new section of t he cemetery, which is now the oldest section near the stree t. On February 8th first of three adds appeared in the Mt . Sterling Record to dispose of the personal property. Th e public sale to be on February 28th at the residence of th e late deceased. Items listed: 4 valuable horses, 1 two - horse wagon, 1 log wagon, 1 fine buggy and harness, 2 set s of wagon harness, 5 plows, 1 harrow, 4 milk cows, househo ld and kitchen furniture, among which are many fine piece s of parlor furniture and carpets, 5 bedsteads, feather bed s and bedding, 1 spring, 1 moss and 3 straw mattresses, loo king glasses, pork and bacon etc. All sales $ 5.00 or les s to be cash in hand. Sales of over $ 5.00 credit of nine m onths to be given. The sale brought $ 2,015.96. In additio n to the personal property there were several pieces of rea l estate to be sold and outstanding loans to be collected.
That certainly moved these sons out of their home in a hurr y. Fortunately the two oldest, James Thomas and John were a lready married and William H. was planning to be married. T hese three along with Ottaway bought beds, bedding and pill ows . In Addition James got 30 yards of carpet and 1 set o f reed bottom chairs and rocker. William got 1 lot of towel s, bed quilts, glassware and a rocker. John got china and d ishes, knives, forks, spoons, and his father's gold watch . Amos D . who was 17 years old bought his father's revolve r. Granville, 7 years old didn't ' get anything but later h is guardian gave him a corn popper.
The guardianship papers in the probate office are indexed b y the guardians name rather than the minors name, making i t difficult to find them. My search for Amos D.'s have bee n fruitless, nor have I located him in the 1870 census. Ott away went to live with John in Sangamon Co. and possibly Am os. D. did also.
On March 20 Stout Kendrick was appointed to look after Gran ville Jr.'s inheritance putting up a bond of $ 2,000.00. H e first paid board bills to James Thomas Kindred and late r William H. These board bills, clothing, schooling and l egal fees used up most of what Granville got. Stout Kendric k sent a final amount to him in Texas when he became 21 o f $ 33.10.
In those days instead of credit cards such as we now use th e practice was to give promissory notes on almost any typ e of scrap paper. James B. Moore collected many of these si gned by Granville Kindred Sr. He assumed the Kindred shar e of the lumber business and paid all debts including the d rug store for final medicine such as cough balsam, sasspari lla, blistering ointment, powder, bed pan, fish oil, soap a nd yellow root. I found none for a tombstone, but there i s one. The final settlement was missing.
(Medical):Both Granville & his wife Eleanor died of pneumon ia within 20 days of each other
Life span: 50 Years 3 Months 23 Days
