No I'm afraid not Peter. I do have ancestors from the Manningtree area but they're not Grays! All the best Sara

Just ordered it Sara Thank you for taking the time to look for me. Peter P.S. I don't suppose you are related to any of the Gray's from Tendering, Lambeth or Fulham?

Wouldn't it be best to get the birth certificate for William Howe? Interestingly on the 1861 census, the family that I mentioned have two of their children reversed. William is now given as 13 born Colchester and their son Samuel who was 3 on the 1851(born Colchester) is now given as 16 born Mannigtree. Sara

There is a William Howe age 6 in St Peter Colchester with parents William and Sarah. He was born Manningtree which I think comes under Tendring. Sara

The Edward and Lucy I am looking for was married in the Tendering district in 1843. Lucy's maiden name was Howard. What I am actually trying to do is discover the parents of a William Howe born in Colchester in 1846. I think I have been putting two and two together and making 5!!!
