Seeking descendants of William Jasper Gray, born in Randolph Co, IL, and died in Madison
Co, AR between 1920-1930. His first wife was Mary Frances Wise, who was born 1837 (and
died 1865) in Randolph Co, IL. They had 2 daughters, Angeline and Frances Adelaide, both
born in IL.
I am descended from Frances Adelaide Gray (born 1860), who married (Senator) Nelson Joseph
Carlock in Madison County in 1875. Angeline Gray (born 1858) married Richard
"Dick" Morris in Madison Co, AR. Their children were John, Maude, Molly, Fred
and Richard.
William Jasper Gray remarried in 1866. His second wife was Susanna Elizabeth Henchcliff
Taylor. The following children were born in IL: William Russell; Thomas Lafayette; Kate
Isabell; and Anna Olive. They all moved to Madison Co, AR @1870 where Amelia Caroline
(1870) and Ada Elizabeth (1872) were born. (I know that Ada married Lon Garrett, who was a
lawyer in Huntsville in the early 1900's.
Please contact me if you are descended from any of these people.
Thanks!
