General Notes: Husband - Alan Burd Grubb


He was a physician; went to Tennessee, where he married and died.

Being the owner of an undivided third of Cornwall estate, his father made a will in 1784 (which was proved on the 21st day of January, 1786), by which he gave to his two sons, Burd Grubb and Henry Bates Grubb, his entire estate. They thus became owners of one-third of Cornwall. Burd Grubb, being the oldest son, received two-thirds of Mount Hope, and Henry Bates Grubb one-third. The Cornwall ore-banks were held as tenants in common, Curtis Grubb owning three-sixths, Robert Coleman (by purchase) one-sixth, and Burd and Henry Bates Grubb two-sixths.
On the 9th of October, 1793, Burd Grubb conveyed to his brother one-sixth of Mount Hope, and on May 4, 1798, he conveyed to his brother his entire interest, which came to him from his father.

He sold his half of Hopewell Forges to Henry Bates Grubb for $29,266.
