Jerry - do you happen to have the names of the three children mentioned in John Gay's 1780 will?I have a note from another board that states Bethany Gay, daughter of John and Martha, was born in 1760 and married in 1790. This seems early although the marriage date is given in full, i.e. 11 May 1790 which usually means primary records or at least good secondary.
I'm descended from Mourning Gay who, if the census is correct, was born in 1796.She married William Henry Clay.
