Ella Graves
April 5, 1859 - March 8, 1934
Ella (nee Schell) Graves was the wife of Hubert
Graves.
The Hubert Graves family came to York Township from Calumet County in
1901. She was a sister to Lillie
Lavey’s mother and therefore was Lillie Lavey’s aunt and likewise, Glenn
Lavey’s grand aunt. She was also
a sister to Emma Bolton, who with her husband Sam
Bolton, were early settlers of
York Township. Per a 1906 plat map,
the Graves originally owned a farm in Section 15 that was later owned by the
Hubings. Afterwards, the Hubert
Graves lived for many years in Section 21 in the brick house located on the east
side of County Highway K about a mile north of County Highway C, the same house
where her grand-nephew, Glenn Lavey and his wife, Elizabeth, also lived for many
years. Ethel and
Dwight Graves were
Ella’s daughter and son.
