R. J. GRIGSBY was born February 20, 1834, in Logan County, Ky., and is a
son of Jesse and Mary (Moseley) Grigsby.  The former was born in Virginia,
the latter in Logan County, Ky.  The father of our subject when young
learned the blacksmith's trade, which he followed most of his life.  At
about the age of twelve he was brought with his parents to this locality,
where they settled on a farm; here he remained till [sic] the age of
twenty-one.  He then bought 200 acres of land where he now resides, and
has since been engaged in farming.  He has from time to time added other
lands by purchase; he now owns from 600 to 700 acres embraced in two
farms.  He has held the office of Magistrate four years.  Mr. Grigsby was
married in September, 1866, to Tabitha Rogers.  She was born in Trigg
County.  Two children bless this union--one son and one daughter.
