Property (24 October 1891): John G. and his wife Polly sold four tracts of land containing 250 acres to Jonathan Brock in Harlan County, KY for $300. Land located at the head of Salt Trace branch waters of the right hand fork of Straight Creek waters of the Cumberland River. Both John G. and wife Polly signed their names to the document.
General: OCCUPATION: Farmer

As far as I can determine, the only record that shows the name of John Granville's first wife is the birth record of their son Michael which lists the parents as Jno. G. Saylor and Polly Hall.

Marriage (17 October 1898): This is a marriage bond for the intended marriage of John G. Saylor and Mary Hopkins. John G. made his mark as he apparently could neither read nor write.
