Biography
William Gray was born in Surrey, England.
William was born in 1866. His parents were Arthur Gray and Guliclma West.[1]
In 1871 William lived with his parents and brother Frederick at 75a Tilbert, Bradford, Yorkshire. His father was a carter.[2]
On 9 March 1879 William and his brother Frederick were christened at St Peter (Bradford Cathedral), Bradford, Yorkshire [3]
In 1881 William and his brothers, Frederick, Richard and Edward were living at 4, Jermyn St Place, Bradford, Yorkshire with their mother. His father was not at home when the census was taken and although the census shows that William's mother was married, she was probably a widow by this time. [4]
William's father probably died sometime between 1879 and 1881 although a record of his death has not been found. In 1881 his mother married Arthur Whitaker.[5]
William married Annie Thompson on 13 November 1883 at St Peter (Bradford Cathedral), Bradford, Yorkshire.[6]
In 1891 they lived with Annie's parents at 42 Bondgate, Otley, Yorkshire. They had a 5 year old daughter, Edith Gray. [7]
William passed away in 1892, age 26.[8]
