Surname GRAY in Rode, Frome, Somerset
« on: Tuesday 28 August 07 17:12 BST (UK) »
Hello,

 I am trying to find a Baptism date for my ancestor Hannah/Anna Gray,  but unfortunately I haven't been able to find her,  I've looked at the Freereg site  and I've found her father's Baptism date of 1 June 1791 St Lawrence in Rode.

I have a rough date for Hannah birth and its 1821/1826 Rode, Somerset, her parents names were Edward & Mary.    Hannah had 4 brothers and one sister and I have been unable to find them as well.

Edward's parents names were Edward and Elizabeth ( nee ) Leigh I found their marriage which was on the 4 Sept 1790 St Lawrence, Rode.

If anyone can help me I will be so grateful.  Thank you very much.

Hello Andy,

Thank you so much for looking,  I believe you may have found Hannah's siblings as the names you mentioned are the names that I have with the dates being one year out,  so I think I can saftley say that these are mine,    the only two names that you haven't mentioned are Hannah's and her younger other brother Edward,  I have Edward's rough birth date as  1834 Rode.  I wonder where they could have been Ch. at  ?

Andy thank you so much,  I am really grateful for you taking the time and looking for me.

All the best.
