I (Marty Grant) am a 4th Great Grandnephew of Charles B. Grant.
Charles B. Grant was born ca 1790-1795. I can't narrow down Charles' birth date any better than ca 1790-1795 due to his inconsistent ages in the various census records. The 1850 census gives him as age 60 (born ca 1789/90), but the 1860 gives him age 65 (ca 1794/95). Backing up to 1840 he was age 50-59 (ca 1780/90) and in 1830 he was age 30-39 (ca 1790/1800). If we say he was born ca 1790 that fits 1830, 1840 and 1850, but not 1860. So to be safe, I'm listing ca 1790/1795 as the range.
Charles was born in Rutherford County, North Carolina, as proven by the 1850 and 1860 census which gave his county of birth.
I don't know what the "B" stands for in Charles name. The death certificate of one of Charles' sons (George Carson Grant) states that his father was named "Charles F. Grant" (thanks to Marian Fox for that info). Marian Fox also stated that family tradition among George C. Grant's descendants said that Charles' middle name was "Francis", which would fit with an "F" middle initial. The "B" initial comes from the 1860 census (Macon Co, NC), and that is the first (and only) record I ever found showing Charles with any middle initial at all (during his lifetime, anyway). Since George C. Grant's death certificate was dated 1927, this was so long after the fact, it can't be considered primary evidence in regards to Charles' middle name, however it could be correct. Death Certificates are notoriously inaccurate, especially in regards to the names of the parents of the deceased. I'll leave it up to the reader to decide which initial to use. Charles' brother Thomas also had a "B" middle initial, so it seems to be a trend.
I'm reasonably sure that Charles is a child of Andrew Grant and Martha Mackey, though I don't have absolute proof. Andrew Grant was the bondsman for Charles' marriage to Mary Morris, so that is my primary connection between them. There are lots of other bits of circumstantial evidence connecting them as well. (These are summarized on Andrew Grant's page).
Charles was presumably named for his Uncle Charles Grant.
Charles would have been 5 to 10 years old by the time of the 1800 census. Andrew Grant did have several sons aged "Under 10", or born ca 1790/1800. One of them was very likely Charles B. Grant.
Charles would have been 15 to 20 years old by the time of the 1810 census. Andrew Grant had no apparent sons that age with him in 1810, but he did have 3 sons in the age 10-15 category (born ca 1794/1800) which is close enough to probably include Charles.
Charles Grant enlisted as a Private in Captain John Moore's Company in Rutherford Co, NC on 20 Feb 1815 and served until 6 Mar 1815. This was just after the end of the War of 1812. Years later, his widow Mary applied for a pension based on this service (see below) but was rejected due to the War being over when he served.
Charles would have been 25 to 30 years old by the time of the 1820 census. Andrew Grant had an apparent son aged 26-44 (born 1775/94) with him in 1820, and this is very likely Charles.
On 8 Feb 1821 Charles Grant obtained a marriage bond in Rutherford County to marry Polly Morris (Mary "Polly" Morris). His father Andrew Grant was the bondsman. In Mary's Widow's Pension Application (1879) she claimed to have married Charles in February 1819, and that Thomas Edwards, Justice of the Peace performed the marriage. She also claimed that her name at marriage was "Mary Morris" and that neither she nor Charles had been married before, and that she hadn't remarried since his death. Obviously she remembered the year of their marriage wrong. Mary Morris was born ca 1799/1803 (based on several conflicting census records) in Rutherford County. I believe that she is a daughter of Micajah Morris and Sarah Moore.
That they were married by Thomas Edwards would seem to prove that Charles and Mary lived in the area now known as Green Hill Township in Rutherford Co, NC, as that is where Thomas Edwards lived, and he was a neighbor of several of the Grants there.
Charles Grant was listed on the 1830 census in Rutherford Co, NC. Unfortunately, this census was alphabetical, so I can't tell who his neighbors were.

Charles Grant and family moved west to Macon County, North Carolina ca 1833 and settled somewhere on or near Mill Creek, which if it is the same Mill Creek found today, it is just west of Franklin on the North side of Cartoogechaye Creek.
Charles Grant was listed on the Voter list for the 1835 12th District Congressional election. He was listed as a voter in Franklin Precinct in Macon Co, NC.
On 28 Oct 1836 Charles Grant entered 81 1/2 acres in "District 9, Tract 9" in Macon Co, NC. I didn't find any record of this land actually being granted to him, but apparently it was for he later sold this land (in 1840).
On 7 Apr 1838 Charles Grant enlisted in Captain Isaac Truitt's Company of Macon Co, NC Militia for the Indian Removal.
On 22 May 1840 Charles Grant sold 81 1/2 acres of land in "Section 9, District 9" to his brother-in-law Henry Burnette (Henry was married to Rachel Morris, sister of Charles' wife Mary Morris). This deed was witnessed by Charles' brother Thomas B. Grant. (Macon Co, NC Deed Book C page 1167).
Charles Grant was listed on the 1840 census in Macon Co, NC. His mother Martha Grant and his brother Thomas B. Grant were also listed, but not on the same page, nor particularly close by. However his mother Martha was listed near Henry Burnett who was living on the land Charles had just sold him, and one of Martha's other neighbors was Lenoir McGaughy who was also Charles' neighbor in 1850, indicating they were all in the same area in 1840 even though not listed together. (A typical census anomaly). Charles' neighbors in 1840 included (on either side of him): Hillory Scott and Daniel Jarrott. Also nearby were David Elder, Nathan Tabor, Jackson Welch, William Cabe, John Cabe and Barbara Hefley. Of these, several owned land on Mill Creek, and other land not near there. So I can't be totally sure where Charles was at this time, but I suspect he was still on or near Mill Creek.

On 21 Jan 1841, Charles Grant made a deed of gift to his son James Grant for a variety of livestock. (Macon Co, NC Deed Book C page 1246)
Charles Grant was listed on the 1850 census in Macon Co, NC, in Tennessee Valley District (which included most of the county at the time, and also included part of Swain County). His real estate value was listed as "0" which is consistent with the lack of deeds. So he owned no land (though the 1860 census showed him with land).
Fortunately for us, the Macon County census enumerator took the extra time to find out the County of birth for everyone, and not just the State like so many others did. This clearly shows Charles and his wife Mary and their oldest child still at home (Sarah) were all born in Rutherford Co, NC.
Based on his neighbors in 1850, it looks like Charles Grant might have moved between 1840 and 1850. Since he didn't own any property, it is hard to say exactly where he lived, but based on his neighbors, we can pin it down somewhat. In 1850 his neighbor on one side was Josiah B. Lackey and on the other side was John Shope Sr. Henry Burnett was just two houses away, as was Moses Mayfield. All of these were land owners. We already know that Henry Burnette owned the 81 1/2 acres that Charles Grant formerly owned, probably on Mill Creek. Josiah B. Lackey also was on Mill Creek. I think even though Thomas B. Grant and Martha Grant were not listed close to Charles in 1840, they were all in the same area then, and that the meanderings of the census taker took him to the same "hollers" in different orders in 1840 than in 1850. My reason for believing this is that of Charles' neighbors in 1850, several of them were neighbors of Thomas B. Grant in 1840, and several of Martha Grant in 1840. In other words, he probably didn't move at all, but was always in the Mill Creek area.

The 1850 Agricultural Census shows Charles Grant with 25 acres "improved" land (meaning something was being done with it) and 200 acres of "unimproved" land (meaning it was woods, or just being left alone). That is 225 acres total, but this doesn't mean he owned it, he was probably renting it from someone.
Charles was listed on the 1860 census in Macon Co, NC, this time in Cowee District. (Mill Creek was only 5 miles from Cowee Creek). This census lists his name as "Charles B. Grant" and this is the only record found (within his lifetime) showing a middle initial of any kind. His neighbors in 1860 were roughly the same ones as in 1850, so he apparently didn't move (or didn't move far) between 1850 and 1860. Interestingly, this census shows Charles with $1000 worth of Real property. I found no deeds showing him obtaining any land, so I don't know where it came from. Like the 1850 census, the 1860 census taker gave the actual county of birth instead of just the state.

Charles Grant died on 31 Dec 1867 in Macon Co, NC according to his wife Mary in her Pension papers (1879). I don't know where he was buried, but it was probably somewhere in the Mill Creek area.
After Charles' death, Mary lived with various children until her death. In 1870 she was with her son William Grant in Monroe Co, TN. Thanks to Gene Brakebill for pointing out to me where they were that year.

By 1879 Mary Morris Grant was back in NC, living in Swain County with her daughter Sarah Grant Lackey and her husband Hiram Lackey.
Mary Morris Grant applied for a Widows Pension based on Charles' War of 1812 service. Her Pension application was WO # 37870. The papers are on file at the National Archives.
In the Pension papers, she stated Charles Grant was a Private in John Moore's Militia from Rutherford Co, NC from 20 Feb 1815 to 6 Mar 1815. Her pension was rejected due to the Peace Treaty already having been signed by his enlistment date.
As part of the Pension application, she gave several bits of useful information. On her claim dated 9 Sep 1879 in Swain Co, NC, she claimed she was 79 years old (born ca 1799/1800) and that she was the widow of Charles Grant. And that she and he were married Feb 1819 in Rutherford Co, NC by Thomas Edwards, JP. That her maiden name was Mary Morris, and that neither she nor Charles had been married previous to their marriage, and that she had not married since his death on 31 Dec 1867 in Macon County. As character witnesses, John Dehart, age 74, and J. P. Grant age 34 signed for her. John Dehart claimed to have known Mary for 40 years, and J.P. Grant claimed to have known her for 25 years. John Dehart was her neighbor at some point, and J. P. Grant (John Patton Grant) was her nephew, a son of Thomas B. Grant (both John P. Grant and Thomas B. Grant are my ancestors).
Mary was listed on the 1880 census in Swain Co, NC living with her daughter Sarah Grant Lackey in Charleston Township. This is the area including Bryson City and east of there up to the former Ocunalufty Township.

Mary died sometime between 1880 and 1900, presumably in Swain County, NC. I don't know where she might have been buried, though probably somewhere in Swain County.
Charles and Mary's children are mostly all proven by the 1850 and 1860 census as well as by deed and one by circumstantial evidence. I'm sure this is a complete listing, excluding any that might have died young.
James Morris Grant (c1825-1904)
Nancy B. Grant (c1828-after 1900)
Sarah A. Grant (c1831-after 1910)
Henry Burnett Grant (1836-1882)
George Carson Grant (1838-1927)
James Morris Grant was born ca 1824/25 in Rutherford Co, NC. He is a proven child of Charles and Mary as he was deeded property in a deed from Charles Grant in 1841 which named him as his son.
He married Nancy B. Mayfield 1845 in Macon Co, NC. They moved to Cherokee Co, NC for a few years, then to Monroe Co, TN for a few years, and finally to McMinn Co, TN. See his own page for additional information.
Nancy B. Grant was born ca 1827/28 (per 1850 census), and possibly in the month of April (per 1900 census, which gave her birth as "Apr 1844"). She was most likely born in Rutherford Co, NC.
Nancy is not a proven child of Charles and Mary, but it seems highly likely that she is their daughter. The main evidence is that James M. Grant (a proven child of Charles) was the bondsman for her marriage. Secondary evidence is that Charles did have a daughter that age per the early census records.
Nancy would have been about 2 years old by the 1830 census, and Charles B. Grant did have an apparent daughter age "under 5" (born ca 1825/30) in 1830.
She would have been about 12 years old for the 1840 census, and Charles did have an apparent daughter aged 10-14 that year (born ca 1825/30).
On 12 Nov 1844 Thomas Davis obtained a marriage bond in Macon Co, NC to marry Nancy Grant. James M. Grant (her brother) was the bondsman. Thomas W. Davis was born ca 1823/24, presumably in Haywood Co, NC and that is where they lived after marriage, in Waynesville. The Thomas Davis family was written up in the book The Annals of Haywood County, North Carolina, by W. C. Allen (1935) on pages 496 to 500. This article included data on many of the children of Thomas and Nancy, and much of the initial data that I have in my files was due to this article.
The above mentioned article gives Thomas W. Davis' parents as David Davis and Sarah ---. I have not seen any direct evidence of that connection, but it could be right. Thomas Davis' brother-in-law was Peter Davis (married to Sarah Davis) who was a neighbor of the Grants in Macon Co, NC and was associated with them, so that is presumably how Thomas and Nancy met.
Thomas and Nancy were listed on the 1850 census in Haywood Co, NC.

They were still in Haywood for the 1860 census, listed with post office of Ivy Hill. Most of the older children's ages were all wrong, though the younger ones were correct (or close).

They were in Fines Creek Township for the 1880 census, or at least I think it is them. Thomas was listed as "Thomas W. Davis" age 57, which works, but his wife was listed as "Martha" age 48. None of the children were at home, but were scattered among various older siblings. I'm fairly sure this is the right Thomas, though I can't explain why Nancy's name was given wrong. ** I don't have this entry typed up yet.
Thomas W. Davis died between 1880 and 1900 in Waynesville, Haywood County, North Carolina. I don't know where he is buried.
Nancy was still living in 1900 in Haywood Co, NC, or so I'm told. ** I haven't seen the listing yet.
Nancy died sometime after 1900, presumably in Haywood County.
Thomas and Nancy had 12 children, as proven by the 1850 through 1870 census records. Their spouses were identified in the book I mentioned above, and I've been able to confirm some of that via census and marriage records. The children of the children I have gathered from census records.
Sarah A. Grant was born ca 1830/31 (per 1850 census) in Rutherford Co, NC (per 1850 and 1860 census). She is a proven child of Charles and Mary as she was living with them in 1850, and her mother Mary was with her in 1880.
Sarah was apparently home with her parents in 1840 (age 10-14, born ca 1825/30), and still home in 1850 ("Sarah" age 19, born Rutherford).
On 5 Nov 1859 Hiram Lackey obtained a marriage bond in Macon Co, NC to marry Sarah Grant. G. C. Grant (her brother George C. Grant) was the bondsman. They were married on 6 Nov 1859 by Samuel Gibson, Minister. Hiram W. Lackey was born January 1833. His 1900 census entry gives his birth as "Jan 1837", but the 1837 does not work with most of his early census entries, so the 1860 and 1870 census records for him agree with a birth of ca 1832/33, so I'm assuming January 1833 is a likely birth date for him. He was born in Buncombe County (per the 1860 census). I don't know who his father is, but I believe his mother was Nancy (---) Lackey who was widowed before 1850, and had lived in McDowell, Burke and Buncombe Counties before coming to Macon.
Hiram and Sarah were listed on the 1860 census in Macon Co, NC in Tennessee Valley District. They were next door to Josiah B. Lackey, probably a close relative of Hiram's, and also just two houses from Sarah's brother Henry B. Grant. An apparent brother, William J. Lackey was living with them.

By 1880 they were in Swain Co, NC in Charleston Township. I don't know if the section of Macon they lived in became Swain (in 1871) or if they actually moved to Swain County. Sarah's widowed mother Mary Morris Grant was living with them.

Hiram and Sarah had 6 children together, all proven by the various census records.
William H. Grant was born ca 1832/33 in Macon Co, NC. He is a proven child of Charles and Mary as he was living with them in 1850, and his mother Mary was living with him in 1870.
He married Elizabeth Jane Gibson 1858 in Macon Co, NC.
See his own page for additional information.
