Greetings Ms. Williams . . . From the post I can see that you have been very busy with record look-ups. I really appreciate your volunteerism and dedication in this. I am looking for documentation of my Great Grandfather William Gray. I believe that he may be my family's first emancipated slave. It is possible that he may be listed in either Polk and/or Rutherford County as the area in which he may have been enslaved in is on the county line. Also, possible slave owners would be Samuel Gray or his son David Gray, Sr. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Blessings,
