Text	William M. Greaves or Graves (4) was born 23 Dec. 1800 in Ohio, the year his parents settled in Zanesville, Muskingum Co., OH, and died 23 Dec. 1875. His middle name may have been Mode. He was about 24 years old when he moved to Indiana with his parents, brothers and sisters. He was a carpenter, according to the census records. William helped to establish and train at least 2 of his sons-in-law in the carpenter trade, and it is said that he and his son-in-law, Edward Stewart, worked together as carpenters. … +34. Catherine Graves, b.c. 1843, m. Edward G. Stewart, 21 Aug. 1862, d. 20 Jan. 1894. … Catherine ("Kitty") Greaves (or Graves) (34) was born about 1843, probably in Columbus, Indiana. She married Edward G. Stewart on 21 Aug. 1862 in Bartholomew Co., IN. In 1870, Catherine and Edward lived in Columbus, IN, next door to Catherine's aunt Mary (Graves) McFall. They had 3 daughters then. In the 1880 census, Catherine was shown as divorced, head of household, with 3 of her 4 daughters and 2 sons with her. The oldest daughter Jennie or Janie was living with her grandmother Jane (McKibbon) Graves. Catherine seems to have lived all her life in Columbus. She died 20 Jan. 1894, and was buried in City Cem., Columbus, IN. Edward Stewart was born in 1842 in Pennsylvania. His name is also spelled Stewert and Steward, but Stewart seems to be the way the name was spelled on the gravestones of the family. Edward was a carpenter, and is said to have worked with his father-in-law William M. Graves. If so, he would also have worked with Mrs. Botkin's ancestor, George Walter Riddle, who married Catherine's niece. What searching has been done indicates that Edward probably moved to Indianapolis after the divorce. (R-4, R-200) Children - Stewart 129. John G. Stewart, b. 19 July 1863, d. 28 Jan. 1864. 130.
