| Ideogram. Melissa Catherine Grinstead Wheatley. 1860. |
There's no official portrait for my 3rd-great-grandmother, Melissa Catherine Grinstead Wheatley. She was born on 8 February 1843 in Warren County, Kentucky, and likely died before her 21st birthday, sometime between 1861 and 1863. She had one son, who went by the name Thomas Whitley. He was born on 5 August 1861.
Her husband Robert remarried in 1872, and moved to Texas. As we have nothing else on Melissa Catherine, the imagined image serves as the best guess we have for her likeness.
She is mentioned in a 1879 Warren County Court record, and I'll pick this up in the next post.
