According to The Diary of Robert Rose, p. 320 Francis Graves,
Jr., who died in 1748, had a nephew Benjamin Graves who had been
overseer, first for the Rev John Bagge on Thomas Button's
"Range" plantation in Essex Co., in 1726 and earlier, and then
for Parson Rose at the glebe in Essex Co., VA.
Francis Graves, Jr. probably was born in (Old) Rappahannock Co.,
VA because his father died there. Richmond Co. was formed from
(Old) Rappahannock Co. in 1692 and Francis Graves, Jr.'s birth
date is estimated as 1680, so he probably was living in Richmond
Co. not too far from Ann Reynolds when the two were of
marriagable ages.

Mother: Patience LANE |
An Oregon First Lady: Stalwart, Resourceful Pioneer By Kay Apley
Staff Writer, The Statesman.
"Polly Pierre never knew her exact age, nor did she ever learn
to read or write. But, as a stalwart and resourceful pioneer
woman, she had few peers. She also was the wife of Joseph Lane
who became Oregon's first territorial governor in 1849.
When she was a very young girl, she was the sole survivor of an
Indian massacre. Dazed, frightened and alone, she had released a
boat from its mooring and floated down the Ohio River, coming to
rest, barely conscious, against a small landing. A family named
Hart took her in and raised her.
From all accounts, Polly could card wool, knit socks, make bread
and soap and take care of babies. She must have been all of 15
when she married a son of her foster family. Her young husband
died a year after their child was born, and Polly then married
Joseph Lane, whose family had lived in the next cabin. She gave
her baby to her foster sister.
"Polly felt a deep debt to the Hart family," says one account,
"kissed the baby and put him in Jennie's arms while she with Joe
as man and wife, set off up the river" to live in the new
Indiana territory. Joe's family had moved there, and the young
couple's cabin was next to them.
As Polly's family started growing - she and Joseph eventually
had nine children- it became evident her young husband was
getting a taste for public life. When he was elected to the
Indiana State Legislature before his 21st birthday, her
mother-in-law warned her, "Don't clip his wings."
The years passed as their children duly arrived between visits
by her husband, and Polly managed through it all, dutifully
keeping in mind her mother-in-laws admonition.
Joseph inlisted in the war with Mexico, was made a brigadier
general and came out three years later with no pay for his
services in the army. He thus accepted President Polk's
appointment of him as territorial governor of Oregon and
departed again, this time to the west.
One account states that Joe assigned his pay to his wife and
"for the first time in her life, Polly had money. Joe Meek, who
had come to notify Joe of his appointment, also left a pile of
gold pieces for her as advance payment. Polly removed the large
buttons from her red wool dress, covered the gold pieces with
the cloth to resemble buttons and sewed them firmly on her
bodice, resolving never to cut them off until every other
resource had been exhausted."
In time, Joseph sent for her. She and her family made the
lengthy journey via the Panama route, finally arriving in Oregon
City where "a great ball was given in her honor... one of the
few occasions on which she shared honors with him."
Polly is said to have found Oregon a marked contrast to Indiana
in its attitude toward women. She was surprised to find that
half the claim (300 acres) on which her husband had filed was
hers - she was a land owner.
The land was near Winchester (a few miles from Roseburg) and
once again, Polly and her family settled in with garden and a
new cabin home. Joe, however, had resigned as governor and was
off taking care of Indian outbreaks and eventually became so
invloved in politics that he spent most of the time in
Washington, even running with Breckenridge for President against
Lincoln.
Meanwhile, back at the land claim, Polly put her gold piece
bottons and a few more her husband had given her in a pottery
jar, dug a hole in the woodshed, covered the secret cache and
put a flat stone over it.
Miners passing her cabin home on their way to and from mines
paid a pinch of gold dust for her pies and home-cooking, she
cared for "weary travelers, worn from the long trip across
plains," and she developed a business of sorts with the local
land office to which she directed these travelers.
When her husband returned to Oregon in much polittical disfavor
and without funds, it must have given Polly great pleasure to
present him with her secret cache of gold pieces.
For her last 10 years, Polly had her husband by her side. She
died in 1870, 11 years before him, and they are buried in the
Masonic Cemetery in Roseburg."
"Polly was my Great Great Great Grandmother, and I have done
extensive research on her. Some of the information that is in
this News Paper Article was gathered from a book called: "Quit
Life of Mrs. General Lane" by Victoria Case. For more
information on Polly's Descendants email: [email protected]
Polly was first buried on Strawberry Hill in Roseburg, Douglas
Co., on the property that Joseph and Polly lived. After Gen.
Joseph Lane was buried her body was moved to be buried next to
him. They are now at the Memorial Garden Cemetery in Roseburg,
Or. Many of the graves that were at the Masonc Cemetery were
moved to Memorial Garden Cemetery. Photo of Polly and Joseph's
