Surnames: Gray, Bays Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/3h.2ADE/1537 Message Board Post: Looking for information on Mary Ann Gray b. 1833 Indiana. Was probably a Dance Hall Girl in Louisville when young. She married Charles W. Bays and lived in Newport, KY in the 1850's and early 1860's. Charles raised racehorses and had a racetrack in Indiana (location unknown to me). In 1865 he was kicked in the head by a horse so Mary and the children took Charles to Carter County, KY (where his sisters and brothers lived) by wagon where he died upon arrival. Mary died in 1882 when struck by a train at Grahn, KY, while trying to save a child stuck on the RR track. Would like to know who the parents of Mary where.
