Ten children inc: John, Jane, William, Ellender, Henry, Mary-Ann, Robert, Susan and two unknown.

"Malcolm Gragg was a pioneer settler of Howard County, MO who entered Government land in that county nearly a century ago. During the early forties, three sons of Malcolm Gragg came to Henry County and entered land in this county. Their parents also located in this county."(1919 History of Henry Co, MO)

Malcolm Gragg was a private in Bunch's Regiment (Mounted) of the East Tennessee Volunteers in 1813 and 1814 (See Roll Box: 84 Roll Exct: 602)" (courtesy of Ron)

The following is from a bio of Malcolm's son, Rev. Robert Malcolm Gragg as published in "1883 History of Henry Co., National Historical Co. pg 721:
..."the seventh in a family of ten children. His father. Malcom Gragg was a native of Tennessee, as was also his mother, whose maiden name was Rebecca Broadhust. They were married in Tennessee. In or about 1833 they came to Missouri and located in Pettis County, where they lived some three years, moving in 1836 to Rives (now Henry) County, and settling on Deepwater, on what is now known as the "Stone Farm." He entered that tract of land and lived there some time, when, in company with his brother, Robert Gragg, he entered all of the timber land on what is known as Camp Branch. They both built houses on the creek and remained there until their deaths. Rebecca Gragg died in 1857, and Malcom Gragg in the year 1862. Robert M. is therefore among the earliest settlers of Henry County. At the time his father settled there, only three families lived on the south side of Grand River for miles in either direction."...
