Notes for MALCOLM GRAGG: From Faubion and Allied Families Addenum Number One, page 24:Written by Marybeth Faubion Rule He was born in Tennessee, probably in Greene County, Cocke County, in 1788;died in Henry County, Missouri May 25, 1862, and probably buried in Stone Chapel Cemetery there. Malcom Gragg lived close to Meadow Creek in either Greene County or Cocke County, Tennessee. He is included on the Tax list for Greene County, 1809-1815, and his son John was born in Tennessee in January of 1812. Malcom served in the War of 1812. He applied for "Bounty Land" in 1850 and 1855 and received warrants for a total of 160 acres.

By June 1820, Malcom and his family were in Howard County, Missouri, where their son Henry H. was born. Malcom is shown as a combined land & property taxpayer in Howard County for 1822, 1823,and 1824. In Neighboring Saline County, Missouri, he is shown on the "Delinquent Tax List" of December 4, 1821, which means that he must have had some land in that county as well. Malcom is shown with his family on the U. S. Census in Howard County, Missouri, in 1830.

In 1836, Malcolm Gragg purchased 80 acres of land from U. S. Government. This land was part of Howard County, but became part of Pettis County when that county was created. On march 4, 1837 Malcom & Rebecca sold 40 acres of land to Thomas G. Smith,and then on January 5, 1838, they sold the other 40 acres to William B. Galegher.

Entries from United States Land Sales Indexes shows that Malcom Gragg bought 80 acres of land in Henry County in 1839 - in Section 25, Township 41, Range 28. then he bought an additional 40 acres in Henry County in 1839 also - the same section, township, and range. In 1840 he bought 80 more acres in Henry County, also from the U. S. Government - in Section 13, Township 41, Range 28.

When the act was passed in 1850 which made Veterans of the War of 1812 eligible for Bounty land, Malcom applied for some. He was living in Henry County, Misouri at that time. he received land warrant #16848, and used it to claim 40 acres of land in Henry County on July 18 1853. When the act of 1855 was passed, Malcom was still living in Henry County. He applied for the additional Bounty Land and received another 120 acres. He claimed land March 19, 1856 in Bates County, Missouri. Malcom, shown in the deed records as being of Henry County, Missouri, sold this land in Bates County, Missouri to his son William R. who is shown to be of Howard County, Missouri, on October 11, 1858.

Missouri Counties were created, then divided, and then changed again as the land became settled. Henry County, as well as Pettis County, were part of Howard County. When Henry was originally created it was called Rives County. The 16th District of Missouri as shown in the U. S. Census of 1850 supposedly included parts of Cass and Bates Counties. (The south half of what is now Bates County was then part of Vernon County and the north half of Bates was included in the 16th District.) It is not known why Malcom & Rebecca are shown in the 16th District in 1850 because they obviously were land owners in Henry County, and they continued to be. Perhaps they were staying with Willam B. and Mary Ann (Gragg) Pogue while Malcom & his brother, Thomas, were looking over the land for possible future claims. Stone Chapel Cemetery where Malcom and Rebecca are believed to have been buried is next to a church. Located in Henry County, the first log cabin church there was called Camp branch Church. Malcom and his son John helped to build the original structure. The Graggs were members of that church. It became a MethodistEpiscopal Church, South........... The name was changed to Stone Chapel, and two new buildings have been built since the original log structure.
