Gray, ----- 241 INTRODUCTION. It should be stated at the outset that this volume does not in- clude, and was not intended to include the complete record of a Family that has filled a prominent place in English history for so many centuries. Such a work would indeed be a herculean task, and it would be an ambitious historian who should essay it with the expectation of accomplishment during a lifetime. The compiling of a genealogy and history of the branch of the Gray family to which the writer is akin, was incidentally undertaken with the view of preserving some interesting personal statistics which had come into his possession, and which were thought worthy of preservation. They referred especially to his ancestors in that line, and at the first, a much less extended rec- ord was contemplated, but a continuance of investigation gave increased scope to the work adding new lines in various direc- tions, until it has embraced sketches of many of the early and most numerous Gray families in America, besides mention of some whose direct connection with the different branches does not appear. The difficulties in the way, and the limitations of time and expense, have hindered the full realization of his desires, but the writer has industriously gathered up interesting family facts from many sources, and while some have eluded the most earnest re- search, those which are garnered as the result of these labors, will at least furnish interesting data for the future historian, and may not be considered an unworthy contribution to that end. The v/riter has found the work of fascinating interest and only regrets that he could not have followed it to its fullest, most complete conclusions. The seeming long delay in the completion of this volume has doubtless been a disappointment to many, but other busy activ- ities and exacting duties have necessarily taken much of the time and attention of the writer while he has been engaged upon this work, and much more is included in it than was at first in- tended. The end, continually in sight, has continually evaded him, and the temptation to extend research to other and invit- ing fields, has not easily been put aside. With a kindly greeting to all of kith and kin, and all of the name of Gray, and especially to those who have cordially as- sisted in the work, this volume is issued, in the hope that it may be found worthy of preservation and be the means of increased interest in the history of an ancient and honorable family. Tarrytown-on-Hudson, N. Y., May, 1887. M. D. Raymond. GRAY GENEALOGY. The name Gray, is of local origin, that is, following the name of a place in Burgundy, France. In the Department of Haute- Saone, there is now a town called Gray. The name was origin- ally Croy. A Norman Chief named Rolf, or Rollo, or Raoul, invaded France with his Norwegian followers and established himself there in the 9th Century. A descendant, or at all events a member of the same family, became Chamberlain to Robert, Duke of Normandy, and received from him the Castle and hon- or of Croy, from which his family assumed the name of DeCroy, which was afterwards changed to DeGray, and at last to Gray without the prefix. Gray instead of Grey is adopted in this work, it being the or- thography in use in this branch of the family, as it is almost uni- versally in the different branches in this country. In England and Ireland, however, in the titled families. Grey still obtains, while in Scotland it is Gray. However, this slight difference makes but a narrow line of demarcation between different branch- es of a family all evidently descended from one parent stock and of one origin. The Grays unquestionably came over to England with William the Conqueror in 1066, for among the names of those inscribed at Battle Abbey, after the decisive battle of Hastings, as worthy to be remembered for valiant services there rendered, was J. de Gray. Nesbit's Heraldry says: "In an old manuscript of Arms in the reign of William the Conqueror, are the Armoreal bearings of Paganus de Gray, equitum signifer to King William." " Again we quote from the same high authority : Gray, Earl of Kent, Chief of the ancient and illustrious house of Gray, so dig- nified in the reign of Edward IV., from whom are descended and branched the Barons of Rotherfield, Codmore, Wilton, Ruthem, Groby, and Rugemont, the Viscount of Lisle, the Earl of Stam- ford, the Marquis of Dorset, and the Duke of Suffolk, —all of that surname derived from the honour and Castle of Gray, (or Croy as some write,) in Picardy, their patrimony before the Con- quest." In regard to the Grays of Scotland being of the same family " we have again the testimony of Nesbit's Heraldry : Gray Lord Gray in Scotland, same Arms as My Lord Gray of Wark and Chillingham, England. Motto, Anchor Fast Anchor. The first of this line was a son of Gray in Chillingham, Northumberland, England, who came to Scotland in the reign of Alexander II., (about 1230,) and gave his allegiance to that King, receivdng pos- sessions in Roufield shire of Roxburgh. His issue has continued still in Scotland." His son, Sir Andrew Gray, joined King Rob- ert Bruce when he ascended the throne. The Grays in Ireland, generally designated as Scotch-Irish, are doubtless the descend- ants of that branch of the family. The Grays were closely allied with the Royal house of Eng- land and were near the throne. Edward IV. married Elizabeth Gray the mdow of Sir John Gray who was slain at the second battle of St. Albans, 1461. On the death of King Edward, her son, the young Prince Consort, and her son Lord Gray, were both executed in 1483, by that bloody usurper, the notorious Richard HI. Burke's Peerage says : "The family of Gray is of great antiqui- ty in Northumberland. Henry de Gray obtained from King Richard I., (i 190) the manor of Turoc in Essex. Sir John Gray, Knight of Berwick, 1372, was father of Sir Thomas of Berwick and Chillingham. Sir Edward de Gray married dau. and heiress of Henry heir apparent of William." The union of the Grays with the royal line of Tudor was by the marriage of the Duke of Suffolk, with Mary, daughter of Hen- ry VII., sister of Henry VIII., and widow of King Louis XII., of France, who had died Jan.

  • Surv Surv Script
    Surviving Survival 9/2/09 p.1 SURVIVING SURVIVAL ** Bach Morimur I’ve been thinking about survivors: survivors of holocaust, of genocide, survivors of terrorist attacks. and survivors of illness, of epidemic . survivors of domestic violence, of poverty, of deprivation. My question is not – how do you survive? My question is – how do you survive your own survival? Because it’s a blessing to live through something, to escape the body’s or the spirit’s destruction. But what about those you left behind – the ones who didn’t make it? the other patient, the war buddy, the little sister; the fireman, the rescue worker… the ones who did not survive? You don’t forget them. You can’t. I’M EK. THIS TIME ON S&S – SURVIVING SURVIVAL. What is the way to healing? Some survivors say you must forget the past, bury the loss, put it behind you as quickly as possible. Others need to mourn, to memorialize; they tell their stories over and over to anyone who will listen. It is important to have a purpose, a goal, a reason that’s it’s all right for you to have been the one who was saved. You dedicate your life to something: to raising children, to bearing witness, to making music, to saving others. CAMBODIA Start with mood music – melancholy – for Cambodia: *** NEW INTERNATIONAL TRIO (something sad-sounding) OR *** Rak Smey Khemera: "Light From Heaven" TK. 5? 6? It’s almost impossible to comprehend what happened in Cambodia during Pol Pot’s regime, beginning in 1975: an entire population uprooted, deliberately murdered by the HUDNREDS of thousands in the killing fields .

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.
