Many thanks to Gerry Hill who is also a Gray researcher.

One brick wall after another is the way to describe the Gray families in Georgia.  I will post what we find in hopes that someone will have the missing pieces to this puzzle.

 

What we have gathered so far.

*Margie's Gray Family

Nathan O' Neal Glover marries Miss Emma Jane Gray, Taylor County Ga., February 04, 1879,
Emma Jane Gray Glover is shown on the 1880 Taylor County Ga. Census report in the Pan Handle with son George.
Emma Jane and husband move back and forth between Barbour county and Georgia until they leave in 1891 by wagon train to Ft. Smith, Ar. He dies there January 15, 1896 and she dies there September 17, 1897. 
Their children: George Franklin Glover, Eli C. Glover, Laura, Susan, Ollie.  They also had 2 children that died one in Georgia and one in Alabama.  After the death of their parents the children were orphaned.  The boys left Ar. and went to a friends in Potts Camp Ms., both are shown on the 1900 census report.  The girls were placed in foster homes and it would be 43 years before they were reunited.

I am looking for any information for John William (b.9/5/1784,SC) married to Elizabeth James (b.10/3, 1788 SC). My lines run through his son Aaron, John Drew, Anthony W., Dale R. to me, Scotty. The information I have indicates that John William died in Crawford Co. GA. Aaron is also listed as serving with the 4th Alabama Res., during the War of Northern Aggression (aka-Civil War). Have more info, too much for here. Thanks in advance, Scotty

I'm searching for ancestors or descendants of Peter W. Gray of South Carolina where his
father settled when he came from Cork County,Ireland. Peter's daughter, Tabitha (Amy?)
born in SC, married Abel Windham in Crawford Co., GA, in 1828. If you've ever heard of these folks, I'd surely like to know. Will always pay reproduction and postage! Thanks!

Seabborn A. Gray said to have been in Crawford 1860-two children- baby girl 1 and dtr. 3. no other children. (Born 1826 Ga. wife Elizabeth born 1835 Ga and dtr. Eugenia 1857, Emma 1859.
Seaborn A. Gray- Crawford Co. Ga. 1860- Is he the Seabon Grey 24 in Talbot 1850? (Also in Talbot Hinton 50 born NC)

 Let me know if you can put any little thing together on the Gray's... Or correct anything anyone has given me-or I found.

Thomas-verified brother of James in Greene (To my beloved brother in law James & Thomas from Jacob Finley, one or two others)

Born to the best of my thinking-
a 1865 died bef 17 May 1826 Putnam Co Ga married Orange Co NC 1781 Ruth Elizabeth Paul.
I found HER Mother's will and got all excited.
Thought I had a Grandma-since she named grandson James & Thomas Gray-but it was an out law-
The only children I have been able to varify-are
Elizabeth married  1808 Wm. Williams-can't find them
John m 1817 Putham Lucy Wilkinson
Nancy m 1818 Putnam John Head-and I do find more on them, and a des. who has used my material
 to get in SAR (So with today's rules-that makes it pretty positive)
William  W m 1824 Nancy Peavy
Thomas J a 1800 Ga m Frances Elizabeth

I am thinking if Archibald left Greene and wound up in Crawford-that some of his 1st cousins definitely could have.

Archibald was in Greene as an adult 1809-
He next was proof positive 1826 in Upson Co Ga.
Then in 1829 he had a Ferry- and the Road was cut to Crawford Co Line.

He then is in Talbot, but back in Crawford-1836 he levied on the yoke of oxen of  Tamuel Tolton.
1836 lived Talbot but buying on estate in  his admin of Daniel Hicks estate- mentions Gracy & Jones Hicks.

I don't find his brother James Riley Gray ever in Crawford. nor his brother John Freeman-both were in the War of 1812.

Next is his brother Seaborn B-and the Seaborn's are very hard to keep apart-but he definately married 1823 Pike. and was in Dale Co Al by 1830- so is not this one, (He was a state senator in Chambers Co Al

1850- One Seaborn was in Dale and Coosa Co AL and another in Talbot Co GA
 (The one in Talbot was spelled Grey= and he was 24-alone and a laborer. Hinton Grey-
  of the same spelling born NC 50 w/family.

1860-one -Seborn A GRAY US census 1860 Crawford Co., GA

The only other son of James was Thomas- born 1801 and I really know  nothing about him-show him married to  Marys Massey
Not in his Father's will-= and this
A Thomas Gray in Crawford 1840
1840 Talbot a Thomas Gray 70/80 with female 40/50

 


Thanks I had this-but not my Seaborn-

page 258

Harrison Gray, a prominent Loyalist, wrote from London March, 1777.2 that he was sorry his brother's spirits were so low, but he was confident that the glorious period was hastening when "you will be emancipated from the tyrannical, arbitrary, congressional government under which you have for some time groaned.
