This is a copy below of a Post I did a month ago on Charles Co MD genforum page...My gggGrandfather was Hendley Gray his mother was Margaret (possibly Gardner), he married a Margaret "Peggy" Keibeard (also spelled Keybeard, Kibeard, Kibard, etc. ) whose father was Thomas Keibeard (again with the multiple spellings, argh!) Thomas Keibeard had a brother John Keibeard, and they were in the American Revolution..
I would be THRILLED to find out more...Hendley and Margaret "Peggy" Gray had at least 2 children, a son, THOMAS K. GRAY (he is buried in Washington, D.C.) and a daughter (my line) Margaret E. Gray who married a James Spilman Petty in 1832 In Faquier Co., Virginia.
I am attempting to go back FURTHER ont he GRAY family tree, IF I can!!! OR any info on any of these other ancestors, or cousins!!! So please share! I will do the same... (email below)
Also, Has anyone come across any of these folks in their hunts thru Deed books, Wills, Voter lists, etc, or especially Cemeteries? I am looking for where the following folks may be buried, they are most likely somewheres in Charles County. All of these folks died between 1750-1850 at the latest:
Charles Gardner (died before 1810)
Thomas Keibeard Sr. (many variations on surname spelling)
Thomas Keibeard/Keybeard/Kibard/Kibeard (died abt 1811)
John Keibeard/ (died unknwn - various spellings surname also)
Margaret (Gardner?) Gray (died abt 1814) & her son->
Hendley Gray (died abt 1815) his wife ->
Margaret Keibeard Gray (died ???)
Mary Ann Keibeard (dau of Thomas K. Jr.)
Elizabeth Keibeard (dau of Thomas K. Jr)
Its probable John & Thomas Keibeard were brothers. They lived in Somerset Co in 1778 & both took the "Oath of Allegiance" there. By 1800 they had relocated to Charles Co.
Last spring I visited the historic "Christs Church" - Durham Parish, Episcopalian, in Nanjemoy at 8685 Ironsides Rd. Built in 1692 log structure, in 1732 brick structure building begun. (so it's been there a loooong time!) I didnt have any other names except "Hendley Gray" at the time (my grgrgrgrandfather) to look for, but there were a large number of GRAY family members buried there. I realize they may not be related to my GRAY family members, tho'. I need to go back ang look again. BUT incase anyone comes across one of these people, please post here or email me directly! I would so apprecialte it!
