Henry Grider died in Bowling Green, Ky in 1843. Was he the father of John Thomas Grider who enlisted in the Union Army 1863? Was he the stepfather of Henry C. Bryant who also enlisted in the Union Army at the same time.
John Thomas is my ggggf and I am trying to find a connection.

from a book about the historic houses of Bowling Green KY
Garnett Bryant House ("Glen Place")
31-W - Sunnyside Road, Oakland vicinity. Built from the 1840's for Garnett Bryant by the local builder Suvetus "Veet" Patillo, Glen Place illustrates the I-house format and architectural details that typically constitute Greek Revival styling in Warren County. The stone blocks at the ends of the cornices seem to link the house with the nearby Moses Shobe House and with the Clark House in Bowling Green. The second husband of Bryant's widow was U.S. Congressman Colonel Henry Grider. (National Register)
