much of this information is based on the notes kept by my mother who along with Uncle Maurice tried to find out info on our family. According to their notes our Gray left home after his mother remarried follow the death of his father, who died shortly after the civil war due to wounds he had suffered in that war. (I have never found any info on our Gray in the Civil War.) It was told that Gray didn't get along with his step-father. Annie Luce married George W. Dean and they had three children being:
Horace Dean
George W. Dean Jr.
Lovery Dean m. Charles Rankin
Grandma Webb (Annie Murphy) lived in an apartment at your grandparents home so you might check with your mother for her family bible or papers for more information. I would appreciate you letting me know if you have more or correct information on our family.
Please keep in touch,
Brenda
