Francine, My ancestor was John Austin born 1750-60 in England or Ireland. I believe Gracey was his sister. Gracy and Thomas moved near John in Adams and Brown Co. Ohio. He named a daughter Gracy, she named a son John. I feel there is a connection to the Prater/Prather family.I haven't been able to prove this cinnection.
