| Notes for George Grisso Sr. |
Biographical Record of Clark Co., Ohio, pp. 216-218, profile titled "The Centenarian Pioneer of Donnels Creek, George Grisso, Sr." This article states that George Grisso was born in "Coffin Tree township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania." There was no "Coffin Tree" twp in Pennsylvania. There is a Coventry twp in Chester Co., PA, which fits with other records that Mathias and Elizabeth Grisso lived along the Delaware River near the present Pottstown, PA in the years following their marriage.
An article about a family reunion in honor of his 100th birthday, printed in the Springfield Daily Republic, 10 July 1883, repeats much of the data from the same profile.
Listed on page 32 of the Dore M. Frantz burials document. Tombstone includes dates of birth and death.
