Bray, on page 3 there is written "Thomas Bray (1604-1691) was married May 3, 1746 to Mary Wilson Very likely she was born in England. He died in Gloucester November 3, 1691; she died in Gloucester March 27, 1707. They had five sons and four daughters Thomas Bray made his will November 20, 1672, nineteen years before his death, and it was proved March 29, 1692. Therein he made his wife, Mary Bray, sole executrix. After providing for her to receive personal property and the use of his home and other land during her lifetime, he provided for his eldest son John to have his dwelling house and to pay his two sisters, Mary and Sarah, each ten British pounds, etc."
