  Major Record Problem!
This family has been erroneous represented by Mrs. Glenda (Surrett) Kennedy!
It was first brought to my attention on June 19, 1998, on the "Surratt Family Genealogy Forum"
"My Great-Grandfather was Grandville Surrett/Surratt, b. abt 1833 in France.
He and a brother came to the US by way of Canada.
He settled in Rockwood, Tn.
He had the following Children:
John, Martha and Mary.
His spouce's name is unknown. His second marriage was to Lucinda Scott. Children by this marriage are:
Frances (Frankie) Alpha,
George, and
Willy.
Any information on first wife or his brother would be greatly appreciated."
[REF:#003.1]
  Possible Record Problem #1
In [REF:#003] list 1881, Rockwood, Roane Co., TN. Granville H. SURRETT, was said to have owned & operated a ferry on the Tennessee River, and to have owned land on Look-Out Mountain, but sold it. The soil was too rocky to till.
Source: Jessie Surrett [REF:#0333.003] (my Grandmother) and (my Grandfather) George W. Surrett
[In the 1870 Census he list Occupation: "Fisherman"]
[In the 1880 Census he list Occupation: "Ferryman"]
  Possible Record Problem #2

"My great-grandfather was Grandville Surrett/Surratt b. abt. 1833 in France. He and a brother came to the US by way of Canada. He settled in Rockwood, [Roane Co.] Tn.
[I don't think Granvile was born in France, in the 1850 1860, 1870 and 1880 Census he indicated he was born in Tennessee.
I do believe his GGrandfather was born in France!
I think he had 4 Brothers, 3 born in TN. 1 born in Virginia ..prs
  Possible Record Problem #3
In [REF:#0333.003] States: "Granville had the following 3 children:
John, Martha and Mary."

Great Aunt Alpha and Frankie came to visit us often in Ky while my Grandpa was alive. They were great fun! Frankie was outgoing where as Alpha was more reserved. They both had a good sense of humor. They would always send a big box of goodies at Christmas time, filled with candy and fruit and presents for everyone.
