    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Bray Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/5gF.2ACIB/1230.1 Message Board Post: Hi Gail, I'm on the Bray list and so got your message routed to me. I've been going to Bray/Bigelow reunions in Whitewater, WI for years. I'm bad with names and faces--do you go to the reunions? My great-aunt Mary Bray has done quite a bit of research on the Bray side and I have some Bigelow information but I'm new at this genealogy stuff. I'm curious...what was the inquiry that you were replying to? I learned through Aunt Mary that Anna Belle went back to England for a visit with her parents in 1892 and returned in 1894 (I think, I don't have my papers in front of me) on the Teutonic--a White Star ship that preceded the Titanic. I found their names on the Ellis Island site and got a copy of the page with their names on it. Their names are on the first page of the list of names right at the bottom. Well, it was fun to see a Bray that I recognized out of all the ones being routed to me. Julie Bray (daughter of Merlin, Jr.; granddaughter of Merlin)
