Hi Chris,
Well, the Homfray's that connect to my family are as follows:Rachel Homfray (1720-1750) was the daughter of Thomas Homfray of Wales (this is the name of a village in the West Riding of Yorkshire, England, not the country of Wales.Thomas died in 1733- I have a copy of the inventory of his goods- he was worth over £200 when he died. He was married to Anne Revel, who was the sister of Sir Henry Revel, knighted by Queen Anne.Thomas Homfray was the son of Francis Homfray of Wales, who in turn was the son of Colonel Francis Homfray, a royalist officer who was killed in the Seige of Clonmel, Ireland, in 1650/51.Will send more stuff later.
Michael.
