• Notes

  !NOTES:I (Marty Grant) am not related to this person as far as I know. They are the ancestors or relatives of one or more of my Grant relatives, so I have researched them to a small extent. !REFERENCE: http://www.martygrant.com/ http://www.martygrant.com/genealogy/grant !NOTES:Might be a son of Jonathan Nichols (1780/90). Was next door to him in 1830. Named his 2nd son Jonathan OR, he could be a son of James Nichols (bef 1775). He was the only Nichols in Burke in 1820 and next to a widow Patsy Mitchell. Mitchell is supposedly the maiden name of Alex's wife. James did have an apparent son Alex's age with him in 1820. Also, Alex named his 1st son James. - Conclusion: James or Jonathan is Alex's father. The other is probably his uncle; !CENSUS:1830 Burke Co., NC p. 183 Alexander Nicles age 20-29 (1800/1810) 00001-00001 * Next to Jonathan Nichols 1780/90; !CENSUS:1840 Burke Co., NC p. 341 Alex M.
