Hi
Isaac and Grace are my ancestors and I was wondering if you have been able to find any further info as to why they where in Granada? Just for interest I have visited Jun a small village near Granada where their deaths took place and contacted a very helpful guy in the Town Hall, he too me to the local cemetery and helped me to look for signs of their burial. Unfortunately in Spain burial plots are not for ever and can be removed after a period of time so nothing was found. He did offer a suggestion as to why the both died together in the same year. There was a major TB outbreak in the 1740's and hundreds died but without more research in Granada precise information is difficult to find.
