Many thanks Merry. It's midnight here so I will digest what you found properly tomorrow. Co-incidentally I've just been typing an article for our FHG newsletter and the father was William Holley born 1812 Manchester and his father was James, an engineer by trade? (I don't think engineer's then would have to be qualified like they do now?) The other co-incidence is that he says "Mr. Reid was a carpenter and joiner. He made half a dozen cedar chairs for the Holleys." So in this case a joiner could be a cabinet/furniture maker? Of course here you had to make do or do without lol

Julie: I have always thought of the Grays as a cantankerous lot. I should know being one of them.
Just look back as see how far you, and I, have come in the last few months. It is an amazing amount of new information, so it is, and the McCrohons too. Joy!

Oh! I meant to add that I have been searching through all the census and have come up with little or nothing to put forward at this time.

btw, the Thomas Gray from Manchester has the wrong wife, Ann. Should be Mary. I think that census record is not our Thomas.
