He was born as Moses Graham to parents James & Millie Dennis Graham. He married Fannie Cheatham, the daughter of Joseph & Elizabeth Jane Jenkins Cheatham, on November 8, 1860. Around 1880, Moses, and his brother, Pleasant, moved their families to Jessamine County. It was about the time of this move that they, and their descendants, began to, exclusively, use the Grimes surname.

Fannie and Moses were the parents Joanne, Martha, James, Robert, Timothy, John, Elizabeth, Pauline, Sibbie, Samuel, William, Nannie, and Pleas D. Grimes. Moses earned his living by farming his own land.

When his wife moved to Norwood, Ohio, Mr. Grimes elected to remain in Jessamine County. He passed away from the effects of apoplexy, with a duration of six months.
