I am researching the ancestors & descendants of Lepha Eddy and her
husband, who was Shubael O. Gridley. He was b. Jun 28, 1849 Chatham,
Medina Co., OH, married to Lepha Sep 24, 1870 at Eldora, Hardin Co., IA,
and died Clear Lake, IA on Oct 19, 1925. His parents were Orrin Gridley
(NY 1811 - Chapin IA 1897) and Lydia Hubbard Palmer (NY 1817, Chapin IA
1902). It is the Palmer line which is my most particular interest.
Lepha Eddy Gridley's info (her parents unknown to me) comes from her
obit. summarized from the Sheffield Press, Franklin County, IA, May 6,
1926, Chapin News:
"Mrs. Lepha Eddy Gridley was b. in Medina Co. OH Sep 24, 1847 and grew
up there. She moved with her parents to Eldora, Hardin Co., IA and there
married S. O. Gridley of Ohio Sep 24, 1870. They made their home in
Ohio until 1875 and then moved to Page Co. Iowa. A year later they
moved to Chapin, Franklin Co., IA. In 1919 she and her husband moved to
the Chapin home of their daughter, Mrs. E. E. Studyvin. Mrs. Gridley
was unable to walk for the past year and had little use of her hands,
but she bore her burden patiently. She was confined to her bed since
March 29 and died on April 27. She is survived by her three children,
grandchildren, and her sister, Mrs. W. W. Richards of Sheffield (just N.
of Chapin). Funeral services were held at her daughter's home and
burial at the Old Chapin Cemetery."
There were four children; details which I have are below. If anyone can
provide further details as to any f these families I would be greatly
appreciated, and would like to share what I have. Peter Burrows,
