My Dad's mother was Jennie Bray. She married Thomas Hambleton. Her father was Philip Bray and Jennie Menadui., My grandmother was born in Grass Valley. I would like to have in information that you have. I am also curious whether you are related to Russell Bray. I knew Sue Bray in school. Any connection there? The information that you supplied is much more than we previously had and I appreciate it and anything else that you can tell me. Thanks Phyllis
Hi Phyllis... I just found your email from last July...somehow it got lost in the numerous "junk" emails that come in daily. I am so glad it wasn't deleted!!! It sure sounds like we are cousins!!! Actually, you are my husband's cousin! But, we have been married 39 years and I feel as if I am a "real" Bray... Have any of the other Bray's connected with you, since our posts? I'm thinking that you have been in contact with Robert Worthington...as he sent me a photo of Jenny Bray, that I think you must have sent to him. Is that right? Jim and I would love to hear back from you! Where are you living? We are in the Grass Valley area, although Jim's grandfather George Bray - Jennie's brother- moved to the bay area as a young man, and many years later Jim and I moved back to the family territory. Hope to hear back from you....
