164S. He made his home in Southold,
Long Island, where he eventually be-
came major of militia He was given
two pieces of artillery of good size
for those days, and these he had
mounted on the bank near his house
for the protection OF himself and his
neighbors. Jasper had fourteen chill
dren. Among the descendants of this
family have been many clergymen,
editors and writer's
Another Griffin to come from
Wales to this country was Edward,

1870. He was an officer in the Eng
