Someone had said her parents were William Henry Grissel-7 and Mary Isabel Massey-1808 -- that seems impossible because a daughter married to a Swearingen is not mentioned in William Grissell's 1806 will or probate case. And Mary Ann Grizzle-255 -- who we had thought was her -- was married to Silas O'Neal and having children with him right when Samuel Swearingen named his wife Massa in his will. And yet, I have a DNA match to William Henry Grissel-7 and Mary Isabel Massey-1808 that cannot be explained any other way!

Samuel's will names his wife, "Massa." Where do we get that her maiden name was Grizzell?
