Carol: about the 3 other Gray brother possibilitys that John mentioned in his email (sons of Archibald Gray): Hiram married Nancy French. They had a son Wilson Thompson Gray who married Malinda Beckelheymer. James H. Gray married a Lucy and they had a son Eldridge Gray. Aaron Gray I have no information about. Also, in my files, I'm watching and wondering if this Peter Gray from Clermont Co isn't also a son of Archibald. I have no information on him accept that he died in Batavia, Clermont Co in 1812.

Archibald had 11 children by my count, 7 sons (John, Hiram, Henry, Vincent, James H, Aaron and Andrew) and 4 daughters (Mary, Elizabeth, Rachel and ?). I am no expert on the Gray genealogy, but am interested in this family because of their close association with the Beckelhymer (aka Behymer) family that I have been researching for several years (see my web page at: http://members.home.net/johntippet/). Archibald was born circa 1757 in PA. He had a daughter named Elizabeth, but she married Aaron Parker in 1819, so she would have been likely one generation earlier than your Elizabeth who married in 1831. You need to determine which of the seven sons of Archibald may have been Elizabeth's father. Andrew had a daughter, Elizabeth, but she was born in 1824. John, Henry and Vincent moved west early on per Everts 1880 history of Clermont County, OH, so I don't think they would have been your Elizabeth's father (BTW: John Gray moved to Fulton County, IL in the 1830s - I suspose Henry and/or Vincent may have joined him). That leaves Hiram, James H and Aaron as possibilities. I have done no research on them so can offer no assistance there. Hope this helps...
