We have been researching the Gray's of early Texas. Early ancestors arrived in Texas in the early 1830's to what is now the Bastrop county area. Our long ago ancestor, father to our Texas ancestors, Deliverance Gray lived in Tennessee in the mid 1700's. We have recently learned that Deliverance traveled from the Carolinas with Daniel Koen and family to Tennessee.Soon after arriving in Tennessee, he married Daniel Koen's daughter, Tamer, who had previously been married to a Halstad. His son, Daniel, and grandson, John Thomas came to Texas in the 1830's and served in the militia. In doing this research we have also came across a lot of information of other relative lines-Wardwells, Burnhams, and Popes to mention a few.Enjoy what info we have and feel free to contact us with any comments or additional info you may have.
