427[If you read this, it is non-sensical… a slave in Klamath Falls in the 1700s? We are re-assessing the Grubb thing altogether. It appears that the only place the name turns up is with EC Wyatt. This might be entirely true, but it isn’t substantiated. There are no records at all where even David is referred to as David Grubb White…it is always David White. I like to believe that it will eventually turn out to be right. But for now, there isn’t much to make it look that way.]
