Gray family
« on: Saturday 08 October 05 08:07 BST (UK) »
George William Gray and Norah Neilson were married in Falkirk in 1871.  Their daughter, Agnes Gertrude Gray, was born in Anderston in 1872 and their son, James Neilson Gray, was born in Row, Dunbartonshire in 1874.  I am not sure whether there were any other children.

I could not see them on the 1881 census for Falkirk and a posting on the Dunbartonshire board produced no results.  Where were they?
