Facts and Events
Mary Whitehead was born on 22nd January 1708 at Heckington in Lincolnshire, daughter of John Whitehead, a labourer, and his wife Mary. On 1st May 1733, when she was 25, she married a shoemaker named John Gray at Heckington in Lincolnshire. They had seven children baptised at Heckington over the next 20 years. The later baptisms describe John as a farmer. It seems likely that Mary's mother died in either 1740 or 1741. Mary's father died in 1747. Mary's first known grandchild was born in 1757, and she had at least eleven grandchildren born in her lifetime. Mary lived to be 80 years old. She was buried on 19th September 1788 at Heckington. John outlived her by about two years. References
