Hi

I am also descended from Robert Gregory and Mary Bray via Robert Gregory (b 1787); Robert Gregory (b 1815); Robert Henry Gregory (b 1838) and my great grandfather was Ernest Atherton Gregory (b 1873) - he moved to Tenby in Pembrokshire. Although I can trace the Brays back a few generations the origins of Robert remain a mystery to me and everyone else I know who is researching this family. There were Gregorys along the coast who were fishermen/mariners about a century before Robert was born, but there seems to be no clear line of descent. I can find an Emmanuel Gregory son of Richard born abt. 1756 in Highweek who was a mariner and he is of an age that he could be a brother of Robert, but no trace of Robert's birth. I feel it unlikely that Robert's origins lie in North Devon, although this would be nice for me as that is where I was born, but cannot find him in South Devon.

Have you made any more progress at all?
Gregory, Elliott, Bray, Widdicombe, Warren, Honeywell, Haddy: Brixham/South Devon
Jones: Llangeler
Edmonds, Fort(t), Epton, Taylor: South Petherton/Martock Somerset
Valentine, Edwards, Jones: Cardiganshire (Ysbty Ystwyth, Llanbadarn Fawr), Llanidloes, Penrhiwceiber
Richards, Griffiths, Arthur: Tenby/Pembrokeshire
