Biography
From this reference, John Gracey (O'Gracey) was born about 1680 and died before 1750.[1]
No other primary sources have been found to support the first name, or dates associated with the husband of Jean Sinclair and the father of Jean Gracy.[2][3][4]
Research Notes
Many unfounded claims are made that his name is John, and his original last name may have been O'Gracey. But no records have been found to prove any of these theories.
