While checking some online Gray info, I found this gamily record of Francis Gray whom I believe is the son of George Gray and Mary Strother.
Francis was born 22 Oct. 1759 and died 27 April 1827.
He married Eleanor Henning [Hening] 23 June 1785.
Children:
Maria S. 1786
William W. 1788
French S. 1790
Robert H. 1792
Eleanor F. 1795
Lucy S. 179- d. 19 July 1807
Albert 1802
French d. 1820
William d. 1831

Eleanor's parents David Henning and Mary?
Family lived in Shanandoah City, Va.
Eleanor filed for widows pension on 15 August 1838 while in Lynchburg Va.She died 31 Aug. 1839
Brother to Francis, Daniel, gave info for Francis on pension application. Daniel born 9 Dec.1761
Pension Application # W7575
Francis stated in app. he was in much need. Wife and two daughters have milliner business which is not reliable and he has no income.
He had suffered a gunshot wound to the ear which left him deaf in that ear.
Hope this helps someone on this family line.
