Surnames: Grainger
In the 1850 census of Putnam County, the following appears:
Benjamin Grainger M 40 SC
Ann F 33 NC
John M 13 SC
Elizabeth F 11 SC
Cela F 9 SC
Meredith F 8 SC
Margaret F 7 SC
Absolom M 4 SC
Hugh M 2 SC
Would like to know if this family is related to the Grainger/Granger families of Jefferson Co, FL who came from Horry Co, SC.
Thanks,
Ron Hall

Surnames: Grainger (Granger)
MY gr-gr-grandfather was Meredith Grainger (probable middle name Benjamin), b8 Oct 1811 according to my family records. I beleive he is the Benjamin Grainger in the 1850 Census, the M Grainger in the 1860 Census and the Meredith Grainger in the 1870 Census as the other names listed agree with my family documents. I am decsended from his son Hugh James Grainger 1847-1889, his son Hugh James Grainger 1889-1969, and his daughter Doris Grainger Land 1923-1996, my mother. I am serching for generations past Meredith. Do you have any information you could share regarding further generations? I am especially looking for his roots in SC and back to Scotland where I always understood the family came from. I do not know if we are related to any Jefferson Co, FL Graingers, but I was always told the family originally came from SC and know there are many Graingers in/from Horry Co. Please let me know if you can help.-Nadia
