Jonathan Samuel GRINER

Notes:

Recalled by Kathleen Leitner Holden. "Jonathan Samuel and Ida (Foxworth) Griner lived on a farm near Melrose, Fla. where he grew strawberries and peaches among other things. He had an extremely 'intelligent horse' named 'Charlie'. Charlie would be hitched to a wagon filled with strawberries, turned in the right direction and with a 'slap on the back' would head for the little station called Brooklyn (now Keystone Heights) where the agent removed the strawberries to be shipped to N.Y., then turned Charlie homeward bound where he would be met and greeted with affection. (told by Mrs. W.J. Edwards)(Janie Smith ((dau. of Lee Griner Smith)))
