I have no record of any siblings of James Thorpe bn c 1818, I do have James bn 1818 to John Thorpe and Silvester Gray.

Thank you Loubielou, 
I have joined the message board and I'll see what transpires once my acceptance comes through. (I will be posting about the sherratt side as this one is not getting anywhere at the moment)
Thanks again everyone. I've been overwhelmed with info from here and am just waiting for my birthday money so I can purchase some more certs and the Harris book. Plenty to be getting on with! Cindy x

I am a descendent (4 x Grt grandson) of Robert Gray & Mary Leighton who were married, 25 July 1797, Isleham, Cambridge, England. I have only just discovered this chat site & I am quite fascinated by the much of the chat exchanges involving many families I am researching & attempting to link together.
I too tend to believe that Foundness/Founous/Fowk Gray to be a possible brother of the above Robert Gray though I am at present unable to verify such but, he fits very nicely.
As well as the Gray family of Cambridge I am also keen to find further information on the Leighton/Layton/Laighton etc.. family. Mary Leightons parents were William Leighton & Mary Torrington.
I'm also interested in the king family. One of Roberts sons &, my ancestor, William Gray married Ann King (daughter of George King) on the 9 November 1833 in Mildenhall, Suffolk. There's strong evidence to also indicate that yet another possible/probable son named Henry married a Mary King who possibly may have been a sister of the above Ann King which sort of fits in with the Gypsy family traditon.
Robert & Mary Gray relocated to Mildenhall, Suffolk sometime after 1812 & before 1833. From there some of their children eventually emigrated to both Tasmania & mainland Australia where several other of the extended Gray family of Cambridge either emigrated or, were transported as convicts.
