To the best of my knowledge I am the last living grandson of Henry Grow. I was told by my father that Grandpa Grow had little choice in the design of the Tabernacle. Remember he was a bridge builder. He held the rights to build the a certain type of bridge. So that is what he did. He built a bridge or roof on the bulding. No one at that time knew how to build a roof that big with out supports or pillars. So he built what he knew how. My father was the last child born to Henry Grow and I was the last child born to my father Marco B. Grow. Their is also two living granddaughters. One in Nevada and one in Georgia. There were many children, I don;t remember how many but I think we are the only remaining ones alive.

My grandfather was Theadore Earl Grow. We grew up hearing the stories about our ancestor Henery Grow. I remember being a young girl when my mother took us to the Tabernacle and then to the visitors center to see the plaque with a picture of Henry Grow. I remember feeling a strong conection with the tabernacle. Afew years back by grandmother passed and I finally have decided to pick up the pace and do our geneology. If you have any more information concerning this line could you please contact me. Thank You Jeanne Anderson
