BIOGRAPHY: An excerpt from the Bogalusa Daily News, Dec. 9, 1953, by Russ Williams, with comments by Judieth A. Magee, states: "Nathaniel Graves was born 31 March 1824 along the Amite River in Amite Co., MS. His father was one of 3 brothers who came from England shortly after 1800. One brother, Tom, settled at Jonesville in Simpson Co., MS, another (no name mentioned) near Pascagoula, MS, and Nathaniel's father (no name mentioned), who had married a Staines girl from near Hazelhurst, MS, settled in Amite Co. While the children were very young, Mrs. Graves died, leaving the 2 boys, Nathaniel and Tom, to be raised by their aunt Punice Smith. (To my knowledge, Pernissa was a first cousin; her mother, Clarissa Dillon Smith, was the aunt.) Tom became a physician and practiced in this vicinity. Nathaniel married Arcada Magee, daughter of Benjamin Magee, who lived on the present Donald Warren place."
