Durham Lookup Requests / Re: Henry Gray Baptist Minister in Hartlepool
« on: Saturday 30 April 11 12:11 BST (UK) »
Hi. Henry Grey (Gray?), married to Hannah, and born in Hampshire in 1828 and died in 1916, is my also great X3 grandfather. His grandson, Henry Grey Granger (1884-1976), emigrated to South Africa at the age of 19. I am this Henry's great-granddaughter. I'm very interested in finding out more about Henry Grey, and who his parents were. An obituary (Northern Daily Mail, 2 Nov 1916) says he "had served in the ministry of the Baptist denomination at Barwick-on-Tweed, Bishop Auckland, West Hartlepool and Galashmels. He was a faithful minister, a Godly, man, through wide reading had a well-informed mind, and because of this memories of the men and things of the past, was an eager and interesting conversationalist."
