Book Synopsis John Graves, 1703-1804, and His Descendants by : Roy Stockwell
Book excerpt: John Graves (1703-1804) was of German Palatinate background. The family name was originally "Graff" and the name was changed to Graves after the family moved to North Carolina. His son Jacob, was born John Jacob Graff (1746-1820) in Berks Co., PA. His son Boston was born Sebastian Graff (b.1747). It is believed that John was listed as Johann Sebastian Graff and included on a list of forty-six Palatines which arrived at Philadelphia in 1730. Family members settled in Orange Co., NC before 1757. Later, the family moved to Tennessee.
