    1. [SHERWOOD] Re: Gray/Sherwood
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/JFHBAEB/950.1 Message Board Post: Hi Stan, Daniel F. Johnson's "The Sherwood Family of New Brunswick," p. 139, shows Julia Etta Gray as "Henrietta (Etta) Gray." So, probably her full name was Julia Henrietta Gray, and she was commonly called "Etta." Johnson gives two birthdates: 1868 (based on the 1871 Census), and 11 APR 1871 (based on the 1901 Census). Maybe these are the birthdates of two different children, and the former died as a very young child, and the latter was given a similar or identical name. Just conjecture. Johnson lists Etta's father as George Hiram Gray, a Baptist, from Millman, Hammond, NB. He shows the children of Charles and Etta as: Mary, Wilford and Walter. If they did have children Herbert and Eldon, perhaps they are not mentioned in the book because they were born in the U.S. and Johnson did not have access to the US birth records. Quite a few others in the GRAY family appear in Johnson's book: Beverly Ann, Christopher Matthew, Dale, David Carl, Dawn Ellen, Donald Murray, Elizabeth Mabel, Emma Morgan, Gary Glendon, Glendon Gary, Jamie Blair, Jeffrey, Karen Beth, Kevin David, Murray, Norman Paul, Patrick Andrew, Riley, Sarah, Sophia, Taylor Louise, Tony, Travis Connor, Troy and William N. If you want to know how any of them are related to the SHERWOOD family, just drop me a line. Kind Regards, Geoff
