    Notes:

    Name:
    Captain Grinnell came to New Bedford in boyhood and served an apprenticeship at the hatter's trade with his brother-in-law, Joseph Austin, but he eventually decided to go to sea. Entering the whaling service he speedily won promotion. In 1791 he made a voyage as first mate in the Rebecca, a famous ship. The captain was taken will, and mate Grinnell was placed in charge, and continued as captain on subsequent voyages. He also sailed in the merchant service, and prospered greatly. His voyages were generally to the north of Europe. Subsequently he was in partnership with his brother-in-law, Captain William Howland, in the shipping and general merchandising business.

    His prudence and sagacity were held in the highest respect, and his counsel was much sought for in financial affairs. When the Bedford Bank was incorporated in 1803, he became a director, and after its charter had expired, he was also a director in its successor, the Bedford Commercial Bank. Captain Grinnell was also one of the incorporators and a trustee of the New Bedford Institution for Savings.

    During the Revolutionary War Captain Grinnell served his country on land and sea. He was with his brother-in-law, Cornelius Howland, in the Bermuda adventure and the plot to capture the British captain. In 1780 he bore arms in Captain George Claghorn's company of Colonel Abiel Mitchell's Bristol County Regiment. During the latter part of his life, by invitation of the elders, he sat upon the "rising seat" at Friends meeting, but never joined the meeting in full fellowship. He was hospitable, urbane, a man of sound judgement, and unswerving integrity.

    Cornelius married Sylvia HOWLAND in May 1785. Sylvia (daughter of Gideon HOWLAND and Sarah HICKS) was born on 4 Aug 1765 in Dartmouth, Bristol County, Massachusetts; died on 1 Aug 1837 in New Bedford, Bristol Co., Massachusetts. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
