Warwickshire Lookup Requests / Re: Grays department store - Gray family
« on: Thursday 02 April 15 14:21 BST (UK)  »
I am sorry that I cannot help you with any information about Charles but I do remember a Mr Greey coming to help me on the telephone switchboard during sale time in 1964/1965. I was on my own to operate 2 boards and it was frantic so he came to see why I hadn't got to him immediately. He understood when he saw how it was and joined in to take calls.

I worked in the 5th floor offices at the store in the 60s and was told that the name actually had 2 letters 'e' in it, thus Greey but it was decided to drop the one 'e'. I later read somewhere that  there was a nameplate above an office door on the first floor of one of the 2 men named Mr Grey/Greey with the spelling with 2 letter "e's."
