"The Greggs came from East Tennessee, and opened a store in Courtland (amongst the first) under the style of N. & W. Gregg. Their business was prosperous until the revulsion in 1836, when they became embarrassed. Nathan Gregg and his excellent wife, having sons old enough for collegiate instruction, moved to La Grange, Ala., where was then a flourishing institution. They wisely concluded that if they could not leave a fortune to their boys, they would give them an opportunity to get a good education. Here they kept the Steward's Hall for several years. Their son, of whom we shall speak, particularly, in this number was Gen. John Gregg."[8][9]
