Jedediah Gray is in my direct line as well, through his daughter Anna (Gray) Fookes. I do not have parents for him but have one slim 'clue' that I haven't had a chance yet to pursue. On 17 June 1775, Jedediah was one of the beneficiaries from the will of a Joseph Gray, Jr. whom I haven't identified. There are a number of beneficiaries, among them Jedediah and Jesse Gray. The fact that they are among several men named in the probate documents suggests that these may be settlements of debt and not a certain indicator of kinship. However, this is early in Jedediah's life and might be helpful in tracking his origins through 'some" link to Joseph Jr. and/or the named Jesse. Reference for this probate is: V.L. Skinner, Jr., compiler, Abstracts of the Administration Accounts of the Prerogative Court of Maryland, Libers 67-74, 1771-1777 (Westminster, Md.: Willow Bend Books, 1999), 184. I do have some additional information re: his property and military service if you need it. I'd surely appreciate anything you might locate on this rather illusive ancestor of ours!
