Alice Kirk Grierson (1828-1888).  The daughter of preacher.  Alice was well educated from Huron women's academy.  She taught school and believed in equal rights for women.  She married Benjamin Grierson in 1854.  General Grierson a Civil War commander took a post in the U.S. Cavalry.  She followed her husband into the frontier.  Grierson commanded  Fort Concho from 1875 to 1878.  Alice died August 16, 1888 in Illinois from bone cancer. Based on audio recordings, we suspect Alice is a spirit at Fort Concho. 
Edith (Edie) Grierson (1865-1878).  Daughter of Benjamin and Alice Grierson.  Edie was a free spirited young girl who loved to dance and sing.  Her mother made sure Edie was well educated.  Edith reportedly died  of typhoid fever shortly after her thirteenth birthday in September 1878.  Her favorite color is yellow.  When asked how she's doing she would reply "hunky-dory".  She loved her father and her mother.  She loves being with children, and is very protective.  Based on audio and video recordings we suspect Edie is an intelligent interactive spirit at Fort Concho.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unknown cavalry soldier.  Three times, our team encountered a male ghost we assume is a soldier.  He is kind but stern.  He seems very protective of Fort Concho.  He appears to be fluent in at least two native American Indian languages, Apache and Lakota.  His are the boot steps heard on board walks and stairs as he patrol Fort Concho.
