  • Notes 
    • Granville served in the Civil War 30 Aug 1861 - 27 Sept 1864. Company B of the 9th Regiment of the Maine Volunteers - Private. Was 24 years old upon discharge in Agusta, ME. Occupation prior to enlistment was Seaman.

      Unable to locate a 1870 Census record for the family. Second and third children seem to have been born in Massachusetts but the family seemed to return home to Boothbay, Maine (1880 Census). Then Granville appears in Cambridge, Mass in 1887; and back in Maine for 1900 census.
