Biography

From Myrna Wade: I am descended from Ezekiel in two ways: 1) he never married my ggg grandmother, Nancy Cowan on my grandmother's side, but signed a letter of bastardy with the state of North Carolina and agreed to a lump sum payment for the child Jerry Burdette Cowan (1825-1903). I don't know if Nancy just didn't want to follow him to the wilds of Colorado and leave her family or what??? Ezekiel married subsequently, at different times, 3 Cherokee women and had many children. and 2) his sister Margaret Gribble married a Frizzell and had a child Margaret Evaline Frizzell who married Solomon Frady who is my gg grandfather on my grandfather's side. So I am related to him on both sides of my mother's family.

From Melinda McRae: He and his third wife Rebecca were living with his son John William Gribble in Huerfano, Colorado in 1880.^[1] He and his third wife Rebecca were living with his son John William Gribble in Huerfano, Colorado in 1880

He passed away 12 Jul 1889 and is buried La Veta Cemetery,^[2] in LaVeta, Huerfano County, Colorado.
