Who is this mysterious ex-Congressman who is asserted to have caned Robinson? I find 19th-century sources that question whether the incident happened at all, and I notice that there is nothing in the text of the article about it, even though the picture is used both here and in the article on Landmarkism. (I may fix that latter.) -- Orange Mike | Talk 18:31, 22 June 2020 (UTC)
James Robinson Yoel Vernon Graves -- I am curious about the source of/authority for the "Yoel Vernon" part of J. R. Graves given name? I have never seen that before. Thanks! Rlvaughn ( talk) 15:27, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
Explanation of edit, in Work. I have changed this sentence - After the 1864 Battle of Nashville resulted in a Union victory, Graves relocated to Memphis, as he felt vulnerable because of articles he had published against the North. To - After the 1862 fall of Fort Donelson resulted in a Union victory, Graves relocated to Panola County, Mississippi, as he felt vulnerable because of articles he had published against the North. J. R. Graves went first to Mississippi in 1862 before moving to Memphis in 1866. This is documented in his testimony about how he lost the will of his brother-in-law W. P. Marks (Davidson County, Tennessee, Will Book No. 24 (Wills & Inventories), 1875-1879, p. 560ff.). It is also seen in the fact that his children born in 1862 and 1865 were born in Mississippi.
