Note

[Harold Grinstead Family.FTW]

William Scott "Billy" was born on a farm several miles north west of Granger, Texas in central Williamson County near Ake School which was located on Willis Creek. It was about three miles south east of Schwetner, which probably didn't exist in 1894. There is no evidence that Ake school ever existed since a foundation os the old school can't be found.

After they married they lived and farmed in and around Granger. Their four children were born there. In 1928 they moved to a farm about four miles west of Bartlett, Bell Co. and remained there until December of 1934. They moved to Posey which is located 12 miles east of Lubbock and 5 miles west of Slaton. Laura died in 1942 and was buried in Slaton cemetery. Billy continued farming until 1944. World War II was on so Billy left the farm and went to San Francisco to live with his brother, King, and worked at a ship building factory. Arlene had married (1938) and James, Douthit (Dal), and Harold were in the Army Air Corps. He returned to Lubbock after the war for a short time but moved to Temple, Texas in 1947 to be near some brothers and sisters. Her married Annabelle Sims and after a few years they moved to Lobelville, Tennessee to be near Annabelle's daughter, Shirley Bates. Billy died and was buried there in November, 1976.
