"WHAT I KNOW ABOUT" Bentley A. Griggs
by Martin Baldwin (great nephew)
July 1987

Bentley A. Griggs I think I saw a few times when I was small boy. I know what he looks like but I don't know if it was from a picture or just from remembering. He was born Sept. 22, 1897. He met a gal named Margaret Halkeham. He married her. She was born Feb. 13, ? . He was a school teacher. She taught school also. I was told a story about Bentley by my Uncle Ceil. He said that Bentley was on the school board when he was a young man. One day he went to see a man named Butch Starks. He was also on the board. Butch lived on highway 66 north of Sheridan. There was a small creek between the highway and Butch's house. Bentley had just put on a new suit and was all cleaned up so he Could make his visit to see Butch. As he was coming up to the creek he met Butch's step daughter Beatrice. I don't know how old Beatrice was at the time but some how she pushed Bentley in to the creek and got him completely wet, new suit and all. Needless to say Butch and his wife Nellie were not at all pleased. She got a good spanking for that. Also Uncle Ceil said that Nellie always wanted Beatrice to marry Bentley. I guess that Bentley and Margaret were always involved with schools. Bentley died Jan. 11, 1979.
