Gradv came to America sometime
about the year 1700. It is most
' likely that he married in Virginia,
- at the home of bis wife's parents.
and that his son John was born In
that State. If William Grady had
any other children we know noth
insr of them. We con guess; but
nothing can be shown.
It. is a fact that several Gradys
were living ffcHallf ax County, Vir
ginia In 1790. They may have been
brothers, or. perhaps, toe nephews
'of John. It is certain that one of
them was the ancestor of Henry
lanta ConaOtuyon. However that
may be, we are only interested in
JOHN GRADY who, was born In
1703. Somehow he and bis father
, got into North. Carolina. William
' Grady was living In Chowan Pre
cinct in the year 1718, and owned
lands there which he sold to James
Routledge as will apear by refer-
Le-
note and lived at Moseley Hall,
now" called LaGrange. Just when
he died, or where he is burled we
do not know.
For some reason that I do not
understand William Grady began
to purchase lands In the fork of
Burncoat Creek and North East
River in 1762 .He acquired several
tracts aggregating 800 acres; It
was on this land that John Grady
settled. There to a tradition in the
family that he came here1 in 1737,
but It he did, he lived on rented
lands. It is my opinion that he came
nere from Caowan County about
the year 1762. 1 do not know that
the-'date of his arrival is very
material.'
John Grady married Mary Whit
field, a daugnter of William 'Whit
field, whose wife ' was Elisabeth
Goodman, a native of Ireland. Wtt
