Can someone help this person? Thanks! -- Mary Kozy Contact him at: Gordon4617@aol.com: I have many ancestors from monroe county and i appreciate your website. the names i am extremely interested in, however, are either not represented or are outdated. those names: gray, dumas, harrison, simmons, middlebrooks, edwards, durham, taylor(which i know a great deal about) and thigpen. the most important link in my tree is following the grays. thomas jefferson gray ran a general store in bolingbroke. he came from a more northern state. he, at the time, could neither read or write, but learned quickly. from what i've been told his wife had to tally the receipts every day and keep a log. her name was lula eileen spicer. they were married on 12/24/1868. from census records, i have discovered that he was born in 1847 in alabama, but that could have been a mistake, since my great-grandmother told me he was from "up north." sorry to have gone on so long, but i want to find out about the grays. any info you might have would be helpful. as a matter of fact, i might have some you might want. taylor info available. thanks- -- Mary Kathryn Kozy mkozy@attglobal.net My Home Page: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~marykozy/ South King Co.
