Encyclopedia of Virginia Biography, Volume II, I--Fathers of the
Revolution:
William Grayson was born in Prince William county, Virginia, in
1736, son of Benjamin and Susannah (Monroe) Grayson. His father
emigrated from Scotland to Dumfries, Prince William county,
Virginia, and his mother was an aunt of President James Monroe.
He was graduated from the College of Philadelphia, and studied
law at the Temple, London; and began practice in Virginia. On
November 11, 1774, a company formed in Prince William county,
called the Independent Company of Cadets chose William Grayson
for captain, and adopted as their motto Aut liber aut nullus. On
August 24, 1776, he was appointed aide-de-camp to General
Washington; and January 1. 1777, became colonel of Grayson's
Additional Continental Regiment, organized by him. His brother,
Rev. Spence Grayson, was chaplain. Colonel Grayson distinguished
himself at the battle of Monmouth, when he commanded his
regiment in the advanced corps, displaying great valor. During
1780-81 he was commissioner on the board of war; and at Valley
Forge he was appointed a commissioner to treat with Sir William
Howe respecting prisoners. At the close of the war he was
elected a member of the Continental Congress in 1784, serving
three years with distinguished ability. In 1788 he was sent to
the Virginia convention called to consider the constitution of
the United States; and with Patrick Henry powerfully opposed the
instrument, and in a letter shortly after declared that the
South was destined to become the "milch cow of the Union." He
was chosen a senator to the first Congress, which met March 4,
1789, took his seat May 21st, and August 7th was granted leave
of absence in order to recuperate his health, but died at
Dumfries, Virginia, March 12, 1790. He was regarded as a man of
the first order of talent, and was one of the leaders of
Congress.

"She m. place and date unknown Francis WAST/WEST and resided
with him in that
part of Kings Towne RI which became North Kingstown in 1722/3.
No birth or
death date listed for Francis. When Gov. Andros took over the
King's Province in 1687, he levied taxes on the inhabitants of
Kingstown RI - renamed Rochester. Included in the list were
Francis Wast Sr., Francis Wast Jr., and Richard Wast. Only
Francis Sr., had a rate, that of 2 shilling 1 pence. The
children of this family have been difficult to trace. Francis,
Susannah, and Martha remained in the Kingstown RI area. William
removed to Newport, RI, prob. aft. the death of his first wife;
Clement moved to Charlestown RI, and then disappears from RI
records, perhaps moving to Dutchess County, NY; Richard returned
to Plymouth and Bristol County, living in Middleboro and
Taunton. We have not found Peter, John nor Thomas.

"Susanna SOULE, Daughter, F. Born on 25 Jun 1642 in Kingston,
Plymouth Co MA, Plymouth Co MA, Washington, RI. Susanna died in
North Kingston, Plymouth Co MA, Plymouth Co MA, Washington, RI
on 14 Nov 1707, she was 65.
Her name disappeared from the records of Duxbury and nothing was
known of her fate for many years. Some who were interested in
the history of the Soule and who had searched for some recorded
item that would prove a clue to her after-life and failed to
find such reference, came to believe there was no such daughter
and discontinued their inquiries; but at last, some time during
the year 1924, a Diary, or Memorandum, was found in an ancient
house not distant from Boston that contained her name and proved
that she was married to one FRANCIS WEST, who had come from
England soon after the first settlement, by whom she had seven
sons and two daughters whose names were written down under her
own. This discovery caused considerable excitement among
genealogists throughout New England at the time it became known,
and a full account of the finding with a fac-simile of the page
of the Diary on which the family record was written, clearly
legible, was published in the Boston Evening Transcript.
Continued research may reveal much more concerning her children
and descendants. In his will her father had given her "twelve
pence," a meagre legacy that was a hint of some disaffection.
Her children were named as follows:
I. FRANCIS WEST.
II. THOMAS WEST.
III. PETER WEST.
IV. WILLIAM WEST was married to JANE TANNER, daughter of Francis
and his wife (???) Babcock, and had issue--John, Joseph,
Benjamin, Thomas, Francis, Hezekiah, Ebenezer, Deborah, Abagail,
Jane and Susanna.
(1) RICHARD WEST.
(2) CLEMENT WEST.
(3) JOHN WEST.
(4) SUSANNA WEST was the wife of (???) BARBER and had issue.
(5) MARTHA WEST was married to THOMAS CARD, by whom issue.
Susanna married Francis John WEST, M, in Massachusetts.1 Born in
1645 in Aylesbury, , Buckingham, , England.1 Francis John died
in North Kingston, Plymouth Co MA, Plymouth Co MA, Washington,
RI in 1692, he was 47."
