    Thank you so much for your interest and the useful information. I too had looked at the marriage to Ann Gray and also decided that there were a number of Johns that could fit.

    I think all that I need is Joseph's Mothers name but I am not sure how to proceed.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction to try to find this.
