Hi! I found this at the JSTOR demonstration search. Seems that William Rust married into the Francis Gray family. Hope this helps. WMQ, Vol. 12, No. 4, P. 268 Owing to the disturbances in Maryland occasioned by William Clayborne and the differences between Catholics and Protestants, several settlements were formed about 1638 on the south bank of the Potomac, at Machodoc and Chicacoan, under the government of Virginia. Francis Gray took an active part in these troubles against Lord Baltimore, and finally found it more agreeabel to settle in Virginia. He sold his cattle in Maryland in 1647, and removing to Machodoc, Westmoreland County, Va., died there in 1667. His will is on record in Westmoreland County, and was dated 7 June 1667, and proved July 31, 1667. It names wife Alice, son Francis, daugher Rust, wife of William Rust; and mentions Ann Launcelot, daughter of John Launcelot. Witnesses John Ashton, Mary Garner. Take care!
