He was the son of John Gravely and his wife, Nancy Winchester. He married Elizabeth Ladd circa 1847. He was a Confederate soldier, who was killed in the Civil War. His burial here was not confirmed, but family tradition places it here with his grandparents, John and Margaret Gravely, and a military marker was put in place circa 2015.

His middle name may have been Hensley, as may have been the case for his father as well. This would have come from from their grandmother and mother, whose maiden name was Margaret Hensley Ballenger.
