Need more records for Thomas Grey of Angerton and family (son of Sir Edward Grey of Morpeth and Howick)

Question

Hello... I'm searching for more records about the Greys of Angerton. I have a couple, but not enough to satisfy family curiousity about his identity. Anything that can prove his birth, death, land deeds, will, etc... is most welcome.

If you can add directly to the profile, feel free. If not, please leave info in this thread!

Most grateful for any assistance!

Many people are making highly dubious links between him and "Ancient Planter" Thomas Graye who emigrated to Virginia with wife Margaret Annis Valentine. I think they're two different people. If he hsd emigrated to America I do not believe he would jave inherited the Tithe of Learmouth.

We need to find a grave, probably in the Morpeth area.. It would be useful also if we could find out what it was about his choice of wife that so displeased his father.
