Married out of unity (Quaker) and was disowned. Married Susanna Morris.
From Friends' Intelligencer (Vol. 23 p.233) -
Died, from consumption, on the 12th of Fifth month, 1866, Thomas Griest, in the 80th year of his age. He was a kind and tender parent. He was formerly a member of the Society of Friends, and maintained their principles until his death. He bore his sickness with patience, resigned himself wholly to the will of the Almighty, and expressed himself by saying he was full and satisfied, and wanted nothing more of this world. He was much favored with clearness of mind during his sickness and peacefully and quietly expired. We can truly say, "Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord, for they shall rest from their labors, and their works do follow them."
