Hi folks I am new to the list, My dilema is try to trace a John Gray and who he married a Catherine could be spelt with a K who came from Dolgellau Nth Wales according to 1851 census. Sons John Alak Gray 1831 give or take a couple of years according to census sons Robert William 1833 and Henry 1835 in the 1841 census the 3 boys are with a John and Catherine Woods ( 1809) Of St Marys Southampton Living with Charles Woods 1841 son aged 7 mths.I cannot find a marriage for her to John Woods. In 1851census she is a widow with John Alak stating born in Hamble .I would like to know his birth if possible? Robert and Henry born at St Marys in Southampton along with the other children,Southampton born Charles Woods 1841 Emily Woods 1844 Alfred Woods 1846 and Harriet Woods 1847 . On the IGI John Alak Gray married Ann Fairlie 02 06 1855 at All Saints Southampton stating father John Gray? This John Alak went on to be an Iron founder and manufacturer.
