You're a star thankyou so much Rosie.

I think I've also just found Tamar at 30y/o living with her grandmother in 1881 too :)

Wiltshire Lookup Requests / Wiltshire census, parish records - GREGORY
« on: Thursday 30 May 13 08:34 BST (UK)  »
Hi all.

I'm looking for the parents of George Gregory and was wondering if you could help me.

George was born in Melksham, Wiltshire in 1822. In 1847 he married Jane Webb (b.1827, Melksham) They went on to have numerous children:

Joanna b.1845 Melks
Gad b.1849 Melks
Tamar (female. no year of birth on 1951 census, doesn't appear on 1961 census)
Frances b.1851 Melks
George b.1853 Melks
Jethro b.1856 Melks (my great great grandad)
Noah b.1859 Melks
Israel b.1861 Melks
Asenath b.1863 Melks
Albert b.1868 Melks

George died in 1898 at 76 years old.

Has anyone got any information on this family please?

Thanks.

I've found a Martha Ford marrying a William Bray in Alderbury in 1885 but that can't be the right ones surely?

That is confirmation that William is his father.

There is a public tree on ancestry that has William Rowland Bray marrying a Louisa Mason so another reason to rule him out as your Frederick. :)

Thankyou. I thought it seemed the most logical but I'm new to this so I was just looking for a little help and confirmation :)

Thank you. I don't think he has a middle name.

I think maybe his father is William as I found this on family search.

Wiltshire / Bray family - Trowbridge
« on: Sunday 12 May 13 10:03 BST (UK)  »
Is anyone looking for/ have any information on the Bray family that live in Trowbridge?
It would be nice to come across someone that is looking at/for the same family.

I'll go from my grandad.
Kenneth Alfred Bray b. Oct 1928 - brother Frederick Ernest Bray b.1926 d.2002 Gloucestershire and Herbert Ernest Bray also born 1926.

Their father is Frederick Ernest Bray b. 1895 (d.1961 semington) who married Beatrice Ethel Swaine (also known as Ethel Beatrice b.1898 d.16/6/1971 semington) in Melksham in 1926.

Fredericks father was also called Frederick b.1868 Hilpertons Marsh who married Annie Elizabeth Holloway (b. Steeple Ashton 1873) in Melksham in 1894.
They had William Clements b.1901, Stanley Nelson b.1904 d.1925 Bristol, Florence Lily b.1897, Dorothy Gladys b. 1907 and Ernest Victor George b.12/5/1910 and of course Frederick Ernest.

From there in all honesty I get a little bit lost. Can anyone help me with Fredericks father? I'm not sure if its a William or a Fredrick and when I asked my grandad he came up with and I quote "It was a bloke from Trowbridge" o_O
