Hello Heidi & John
I think but not to sure that george may be from Meppershall. born 1814
as in the IGI there is a george gray born 1814 to John Gray and Mary which would be Julia gray`s grandaughter.
the only differance is that she has changed colour from gray to white !?

Right that makes sense, so mary white must be eliza`s mother ! who is living at the alms house.
Well thank you, that has made a great start on tracing my Gt Gt Grandmothers side of the family.

Ian
I found this via 'google'
http://www.oldtowns.co.uk/Bedfordshire/bedford.htm
Towards the end of the text it contains a description of the hospital, being a Harpur charity establishment for poor children.
"Besides which, the girls in the hospital for poor children, another branch of the charity, are taught household duties, needle-work, reading and writing, by the mistress."
Regards John

Thank you for all of that info, i gather that the gray family were very poor.
John i noticed that in 1861 census i looked up for george and looking at the original census it says George and Louisa, yet when you look at the household it says George and Eliza If you look at RG9 997 pg 16 on the 1837 website and then look at household it gives you 2 differant names.
Ian

Census
1851 St Paul's Bedford
George Gray born Eaton Socon, Bushmead, Bedford 1812 - Draper
Eliza Gray Daughter born Bedford 1840
1861 St Paul's Bedford
George Gray born Eaton Socon, Bushmead, Bedford 1812 - Tailor & Clothier
1871 St Paul's Bedford
George Gray born Eaton Socon, Bushmead, Bedford 1812 - Tailor
1881 13 Green Hill St ST paul's Bedford
George Grey born (as above) 1812 - Tailor
1891 St Paul's Bedford
George (GRACE - incorrect transcription) Gray born as above - Tailor
Eliza Gray daughter unmarried born Bedford 1840
George Gray died 1892 March ¼ Bedford vol 3b p261
1901 Broomfield St Paul, Bedford
Eliza (GADY - incorrect transcription) Gray Head born 1840 Bedford unmarried living on own means
Julia (GADY - incorrect transcription) Gray sister born 1845 Bedford unmarried living on own means
Eliza Gray died 1906 March ¼ Bedford vol 3b p191
Looks like this could be your George Gray from Julia's return to the fold in 1901 census.
Couldn't locate Eliza in 1861, 1871, 1881 yet and Julia has only appeared in 1851, 1861 so far.
Good luck
Heidi
