Surnames/tags: Gray de Gray de Croy
This is a One Name Study to collect together in one place everything about the Gray surname and the variants of that name. The hope is that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. Please contact the project leader, Lee Carter (Carter-17158), add categories to your profiles, add your questions to the bulletin board, add details of your name research, etc.

Interesting note here: The Gray men (me, my uncle George, and my grandfather) all started graying in our late twenties and, by forty, both my grandfather and uncle had a full head of white-gray hair. Being almost forty myself, I'm not graying as quickly but still started graying much earlier than statistically normal.
