"The Gray Family..." (referenced under his son, Joshua) begins with his information and a narrative of his life and times, and reprints his will dated 31 Narch 1692. He r. Berwick (formerly part of Kittery), ME, apparently one of the Scottish prisoners taken at the battle of Dunbar, 1650, who were sent to New England. The surname originated in a place name in Burgundy, France (Croy = DeCroy = DeGray = Gray) and ancestors of the Grays came with the Norman conquest to England. Here is the opening section of "The Gray Family of Hancock County, Maine," Almon A. Gray & Walter Snow [see http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~drowles/gray.htm]:
Descendants of George Gray - Generation One
1. George1 Gray; born circa 1630 at Scotland; married an unknown person Jul 1672 at Kittery, York, Maine; died circa 1693. In 1650 the town of Dunbar, located on the east coast of Scotland, was the scene of a bloody battle between forces of Cromwell, a pious Puritan leader, with his veterans from Ireland, and General David Leslie who was in command of the Covenanters in defense of the Catholics. Leslie's troops outnumbered Cromwell's army, but they were undisciplined clansmen of the Highland chieftains. Cromwell defeated Leslie's disorganized troops and three thousand Scots fell in this disaster, fighting hopelessly to the last. Ten thousand were taken prisoner, and about half were so exhausted by their fight, and disabled by wounds, that they were released. The able bodied prisoners, five thousand in number, were marched down to Durham and Newcastle-on-Tyne. The Cathedral at Durham was converted into a prison and the Highlanders were destined to spend an indefinite period as prisoners of war. Their food consisted of 'Pottage made with oatmeal, beef, and cabbage, a full quart at a meal for every prisoner. They had also Coals daily brought them, as many as made about 100 Fires both Night and Day, and straw to lie and aced rather like beasts then Men.....As to those that were sick,..... they had very good mutton broth, and sometimes veal broth, and beef and mutton boiled together.....There were also a physician to let them blood, and dress such as were wounded, and give the sick physic.' 'Notwithstanding all this many of them died and few of any other disease then the flux; some were kill'd by themselves, for they were exceedingly cruel one toward another.' 'Sixteen hundred men taken prisoners in a fanatical religious war, died within a period of fifty-eight days, nearly thirty a day. It is a revolting picture of savage cruelty, supplemented by ignorance of elementary hygiene.' Arrangements were soon made to transport Scottish prisoners to New England. In early November, 1650, one hundred and fifty Scottish prisoners were ordered to Augustine Walker, master of the ship 'Unity' to be transported to New England. It usually took six weeks to cross the Atlantic in favorable season and it was late December, 1650, before they arrived in Boston Harbor. They suffered from scurvy on the voyage, but how many died is not known. Some were sent to Lynn, Massachusetts to be employed in the iron works, and others were distributed to numerous towns in Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine. An interesting fact in connection with the deportation of these Scots is found in Berwick, formerly a part of Kittery, Maine, where a parish was called 'Unity Parish' doubtless from the prisoners who were sent there to work in the sawmills at that place, having come to New England in the ship of that name. In 1656 record was made of grants of land to some of these men, indicating they had been released from servitude. Among those believed to have been a part of the Dunbar prisoners settling in the Upper part of Kittery, now Berwick, Maine, was George Gray, the progenitor of the Gray Family of Hancock County, Maine.
Children of George1 Gray and an unknown spouse were as follows:
2. i. Robert2, born 1680 at probably, Berwick, York, Maine; married Elizabeth Goodwin; married Elizabeth Freethy.
ii. George; died 1723. He was in captivity in 1692 at Montreal, Canada. He chose to remain in Montreal 'for love of religion.'
He was deceased without heirs in 1723. Reference: 'Genealogical Dictionary of Maine and New Hampshire.'
iii. James; born circa 1686; married Martha Goodwin, daughter of Moses Goodwin and Abigail Taylor, 30 Aug 1711; died 1726.
iv. Sarah; married Joseph Jellinson; married Nicholas Cane. She was not in her father's will.
