    1. my Quaker interests: GRAY, NEWMAN, RYLY
    2. Hi list, My Quaker family is as follows: GRAY, Berkshire and London from about 1681. John GRAY, s.o. John GRAY, salesman and Mary, was a distiller from Southwark who married Mary NEWMAN in 1727. Their numerous offspring included Newman GRAY, wine and brandy merchant, apprenticed to Jonathan STEELE, distiller and Quaker. John GRAY's brother Abraham born 1712 was a cooper and married Rebecca WALKER, born 1718 Cumberland d.o. John and Rebeccah WALKER. Newman GRAY married Jane WILKINSON d.o. Joseph WILKINSON and Jane STEEL of Cumberland in 1772. They had one surviving adult daughter Hannah GRAY born 1779 who married out. The NEWMAN family also come from London. Mary NEWMAN born 1710 Cripplegate was the daughter of Jonathan NEWMAN, born 1676, Houndsditch, a baker from Houndsditch and Katherine WRIGHT from Guildford who married in 1707. Jonathan, a draper, was born in 1676 to John NEWMAN, Baker, and Elizabeth RYLY who married in 1672. I have fairly detailed records of these people and some of their descendants until around the early 1800s. I have records for many of Hannah's descendants but not of any of the other GRAYs. Best wishes Eira
