I got too caught up on the “cool” factor of trying to prove the family connection to Skibo that I lost track of the more important step of proving my husband’s direct line to “Auld” Thomas. I made myself go back to the starting point and have been working my way up the tree for longer than I care to admit. In this research, I came across the Will of Peterson Gray (1813-1869) and I always find these old wills to be interesting – like making sure your kids get to keep their cows.
I’ve transcribed it here for any others it may help or amuse and have done my best to interpret the handwriting correctly. I have added paragraph breaks to make it easier to read.
DISCLAIMER: My research is ongoing and this tree is a work in progress – not all facts have been proven according the BCG standards. I have decided to publish as I go to connect with other researchers and share my research with them. As is best practice, don’t just copy all of the info here! It’s meant to be used as a starting point. There may be errors in the tree and I encourage you to reach out if you see errors or have additional information!
