A Tentative Grandstaff Genealogy
 

Michael Grindstaff (according to The History of Catauba County, NC (
Catuba
Co., NC: Historical Association, 1954)) planter, bought land in May 1773 (p. 124).
  This was originally in Tryon County, cut off into Lincoln County in 1779, and finally into Catauba in 1842.  In what was later the adjoining county of Burke, Michael
Grandstaff applied for land grants, as follows: 300 A. on 11 Oct. 1783; 200 A on same date; 200 A on 7 Aug. 1787.
  These records likely pertain to the man whom Jacob Gabbard called his grandfather in his pension application.  Jacob was b, according to his disposition, in 1760; thus Michael's birth must have been c 1715 to 1723;
There was a Michael Grindstaff listed in the 1790 Census of Burke County, Morgan Dist., p. 107, with 1 male under 16; 1 male over 16; and 4 females.  At present we know nothing of his wife, nor when and where he died... The children of this source are listed in the Family page.

Notes for N ICHOLAS I SAAC G RINDSTAFF, J R. :

There is an Isaac Granstaff listed in the 1830 Census for Wilson, Co, TN.  It says he has 1 son under 5 years old; 2 sons between 10-15 ; 2 sons between 15-20; 3 sons between 20-30; He would be between 50 and 60 years old himself in 1830
 

From Thomas E. Partlow , Wilson County TN, Wills, Books 1-13, 1802-1850 (Easley, SC: Southern Historical Press, 1981:

p. 132 Isaac Grindstaff Will, 2 Dec. 1840, heirs: wife Mary, sons: John, David, Isaac, William, Nicholas, James D., daughters: Nancy, Matilda, Frances, Katherine Wheeler, Polly Fite , Elizabeth Turner, Martha Hearn. Wits: Jacob Smith, William Boyd, William Vantrease .
   James Young, executor.   Recorded 12/31/40
 
( p. 1456)

Drake's History of Wilson County (1879), p. 13, lists Isaac Grandstaff as a pioneer settler to the "Three Forks" Settlement on Round Lick Creek in Wilson County, Tennessee.  Much of his children could have been in Smith County because by an act of the General Assembly, November 6, 1801, a thick part of Wilson County was detached and annexed to Smith County, TN.       If he was a pioneer settler, it is likely he was from North Carolina.
  Virginia is also a good possiblity .
  The area was first settled by William Harris and William McSpadden in 1799 from North Carolina and James Wrather and Samuel King from Virginia.
  (History of Wilson County, TN, Dixon Merritt, editor.]

It is interesting to note that he named one of his sons (the only one listed) "William Bumpass Granstaff ."
  William Bumpass was also in Wilson County.  William Bumpass was from Smith's Fork (Statesville/Marysville) The first house built in Statesville was build by him.  It was a 2-story log cabin about 1799-1804.  He died about 1805.  It was a tavern and the first post office was located in it.  At one time it was painted and called the "Red House."
  It was torn down in 1947.
  William Bumpass was a revolutionary war veteran.  Statesville, Wilson County's, 2nd oldest city was established as Marysville in 1812 in honor of William's wife Mary. Why Isaac named his son after him is unknown.
  I don't know what the relationship was.
  It would be useful to find out more about Mary Vantrease , Isaac's supposed wife from family recollection.  It could be that Mary
Vantrease is the grandaughter of William Bumpass and she named her son after him.
  Of course, this means that Mary was a daughter of a daughter of William Bumpass (prob. b. about 1729).
  The only daughter I am aware of
are Elizabeth, Unknown, and Ann of which did not marry
Vantreases .  It could be that Isaac and William were merely friends, even though William was much older.


From The History of Smith County, Tennessee (1987): "The name Grindstaff comes from the German spelling Crantzdorf . . .

Reeves, 92): He was on Carter Co., Tax List 1798; move with his family and that of Daniel Smith, to Wilson Co., in 1803.
