Notable members of the Graves and Greaves Family
Much research and work has been carried out by the Graves Family Association including DNA testing and proving of family lines. This project is not aiming to copy that work and sites references, but, to be a "bookmark" project to those persons of notoriety in the family on Geni.Com, and assist to complete the tree on Geni.Com. Graves Family Association on Geni.Com
NB. Collaborators who work on US tree are required, as I do not work in that area
