Surnames: Bray Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/5gF.2ACIB/1237 Message Board Post: Trying to find any information on Joseph Bray who was born in Droylesdlos, Lancashire. The 1891 Census shows him living on Howe St., Barrow in Furness. His wife's name was Isabella (nee Hall?) They had a daughter Isabella, sons Henry, ?, and Joseph. Joseph, b. 1896 is my grandfather who emmigrated to the US after WWI. Henry remained in England, never married or had children. Isabella married and had a daughter who lived in Fort Erie, Ontario, Canada. It amazes me how many Bray's there are in the southern US as it is a rare surname here in western New York state! Any information anyone has on this particular Bray line would be greatly appreciated.
