FLEMING GRANTLAND

    Fleming Grantland was born in Westover, Virginia, in 1790, and died in
Milledgeville, Georgia, after a brilliant career, in his twenty-ninth year, with
his brother, Seaton Grantland, he established the "Georgia Journal," early in
the life of Milledgeville as the Capital. Old files of the paper, 1812, 1813,
1814, 1815, 1816, are in possession of his great-granddaughter, Mrs. David
Ferguson. Editor of a popular Journal, Senator, and financier, he served his
country and adopted State as Lieutenant in the war of 1812, in Florida, under
General Floyd.

    He married Agnes Eliza Jones, and one daughter survived—Eliza Grantland,
wife of Miller Grieve.
