Note: In researching the Grant Family, I have come across several names for the wife of Perez Grant. I am not sure if some of these names are nick-names or if her full name was all of the names found. All in variations of spelling and in different orders, sometimes just the use of any one of these names. They are: Eleanor Clover Mary Jane (Drew) Grant. In the 1870 US Census, District # 7, Sequatchie, TN, lists her as Mary Grant, Widowed.
