Marriage | aft 1787 | John Gray, Sr, and Rebecca Bishop were married aft 1787. (According to Emmie Marguerite Tolbert, Family Journal of the Gray Reunions for 1937 & 1938 & Scrapbook: Laurens County ("John Gray, Gentleman"by Wil Lou Gray), John Gray married a woman named Elizabeth after Ailsie's death. No surname given. Did John have two wives after Ailsie died? Probate papers mention a surviving widow & 3 minor children. No names given.)1,2 |
Death | aft 1820 | She died aft 1820.3 |
Note | | Some sources say Rebecca Bishop may have been sister of the Martha Bishop who married Jesse Gray. If birthdate (1790) of the Rebecca Bishop who was sister of Martha is correct, it would have been impossible for her to have married John Gray and had three children before he died in 1806. |
