The actual records reports the marriage date as 10 January 1926. On the marriage license Clarice's name is written oddly, then a shoddy write-over attempts to correct the name to Clarice. It has been interpreted several ways. Note the great difference in George's age and birth year between 1900 and the group 1910-1940. In general I usually think the age given in earlier censuses (nearer the birth) are more accurate. But the birth dates and ages vary wildly with these Tennessee families in this era. Social Security records (see below) report George's birth date as 17 Oct 1892, which woudl accomodate all the censuses except 1900. But in 1900 he is 12 years old, with birth date Nov 1887. Did his parents mistake an 8-year-old for a 12-year-old? Or maybe the enumerator heard wrongly and did not look to see if the child looked 12? In the 1940 census, George's reported age of 46 would place his birth in about 1892. 1940 Federal Census, Jefferson County, Tennessee, 8 May, Civil District 4, Enumeration District 15-7, page 8B, Hse #125, Rents $6 Gregory, George Head M W 46 Grade H-3 b Tenn Rural Jefferson Co TN in 1935 School Bus Director [b abt 1893] Gregory, Clarice Wife F W 34 Grade H-4 b Tenn Rural Jefferson Co TN in 1935 [b abt 1905] Gregory, Trula Mae Dau F W 13 Grade 6 b Tenn Rural Jefferson Co TN in 1935 Gregory, George Jr Son M W 11 Grade 5 b Tenn Rural Jefferson Co TN in 1935 Social Security Death Index George Gregory Born 17 Oct 1892 Died Jun 1952 SSN 408-18-6169 issued Tennessee (Before 1951) Tennessee, Death Records, 1908-1958 George F Gregory Senior Birth 17 Oct 1892 Tennessee Residence Rural Cocke County, Tennessee Age 59, Occupation Farming Death 12 Jun 1952 Rural, Rt 1, Newport, Cocke County, Tennessee Cause of Death Bright's Disease, 2 yrs Father's name Andrew J Gregory Mother's name Lethia [Letha] Few Social Security #408-18-6169 Informant George F Gregory, Jr Burial 15 June 1952 Taft Cemetery, Dandridge (Jefferson Co), Tennessee Certificate #52-14841 Filed 10 July 1952, Registered State 6 Aug 1952 George was born in 1893, according to his death certificate.

Research by family researcher Loretta Gregory Gay indicates that the birth place was actually in nearby Newport, Cocke County, Tennessee. George Thomas Gregory went by Tom. He is listed variously in the censuses as George Thomas, Thomas G, and G T. In 1900 Tom (George) is 16 and at home with the family of Dock, reported in Township 4 of Chickasaw Nation. Doc and Julia and the children are listed in the 1900 Federal Census in Chickasaw Nation, Indian Territory, 4 July, Township 4 South Range 4E, District 145, page 27A, Hse/Fam #402 We have a marriage date for Tom and Fannie Belle Wilson on 6 November 1906. In 1910 census, he is married and living in Lincoln township, Comanche County, Oklahoma. Lawton is the County Seat of current Comanche County. This is west of Marlow, Stephens County, Oklahoma, where his father, Dock, was living in 1910. His brother Ed is living in his household. 1910 Federal Census, Comanche County, Oklahoma, 20 April, Lincoln Township, District 42, page 4A, Hse #50, Fam #51 Gregory, G T Head M W 26 married 3 years TN TN TN Farmer Rents Gregory, Fannie B Wife F W 27 married 3 yrs 2 children/2 living TN TN TN Gregory, Hoyt Son M W 2 OK TN TN Gregory, Otto Son M W 4mos OK TN TN Gregory, Ed Brother M W 24 Single TN TN TN Farmer In 1918, George registered for the WWI draft in Stephens County, Oklahoma.

I think I know why this occurred. Here is what I find in the census reports. We find Tom listed in the household of his father Dock, in Elmore Township of Garvin County. In this household listing, Dock and Julia have 5 sons living with them and all reported as single. The names of George Thomas (Tom) are turned around, and he is reported as Thomas G. This also happened to his brother William Henry Harrison Gregory, who is reported here as Harris W, and in 1930 he was Harrison W. 1920 Federal Census, Garvin County, Oklahoma, 25 January, Elmore Township, District 25, page 11B, Hse #188, Fam #200, in the household of his father, Gregory Dock G Head M W AL VA TN Farmer: Gregory Thomas G Son M W 36 Single TN AL TN Farmer, Working Out This report is confusing, though, because he is reported as single, as are all his brothers in the household. We know he was already married with two children in the 1910 census. Tom and Fannie's children were born in 1908, 1909 and 1911. I also find a 1920 listing for GT Gregory, in his own household, with all the right names and ages of wife Fannie, children Hoyt, Otto and Anna. They are reported as living in Lindsay Township in an unincorporated area. But G T is reported as a Farmer. I do not know how far outside the town of Lindsay the township of Lindsay would go. I know Elmore Township, where Tom's father was living, also as a farmer, is south and east of Lindsay. 1920 Federal Census, Garvin County, Oklahoma, 6 January, Lindsay Township, District 31, page 2B, Hse #36, Fam #39 Gregory, G T Head Rents M W 35 Married TN AL TN Farmer Gregory, Fannie Wife F W 37 Married TN TN TN Gregory, Hoyt Son M W 11 OK TN TN -- page 3A -- Gregory, Otto Son M W 10 OK TN TN Gregory, Anna Dau F W 8 OK TN TN Family members refer to Dock as living in Elmore City. Elmore City appears to have been incorporated or the name of the same township changed between 1920 and 1930. The location for Dock's family in 1930 is Elmore City, Garvin, Oklahoma. It is quite plausible that Tom (GT) was living in Lindsay town, or at the southern edge of Lindsay Township, towards Elmore Township, so was enumerated with his household there. A different enumerator was reporting Elmore Township. I would think that GT and his brothers were working one farm with Dock. Ed, who had been living with Tom in Lincoln in 1910, is now listed again in his father's household in Elmore. Tom did not live far from them, even though their houses are within two different township boundaries. It seems likely to me that Dock reported all his children who were farming with him as part of his household, while GT with his full household was separately reported in Lindsay. In Dock's family, no wife or children of Tom are reported. In fact Tom (Thomas G) is reported as single. This is understandable if the enumerator heard Dock say that he and his sons were farming together, and Thomas G was one of the sons. The enumerator could have understood that to mean that Thomas G was another son still living at home, and thus reported him as single. In Lindsay, earlier in the month, the other enumerator there had properly recorded Tom and Fannie's household in town. It is interesting that in this 1920 census G T's father's place of birth is correctly reported as Alabama, but in 1930 this changes to Tennessee. This could be an enumerator error, who also recorded Thomas' wife Fannie as born in Tennessee, as well as both her parents. In 1930, we find him as expected in his own household with Fannie, in Lindsay Township. But only two of the children are shown in this census report: Otto, age 20 and Anna age 19. Hoyt was out of the house on his own in 1930. 1930 Federal Census, Garvin County, Oklahoma, 7 May, Lindsay Township, District 11, page 26B, Hse #362, Fam #389 Gregory, George T Head M W 47 TN TN TN Farmer Gregory, Fannie Wife F W 47 TN TN TN Gregory, Otto Son M W 20 OK TN TN Laborer Gregory, Anna Dau F W 19 OK TN TN Servant/Household 1940 Federal Census, Garvin County, Oklahoma, 25 April, Lindsay, District 25-11, page 11A, Hse #199, Owns $200 Gregory, George T Head M W 51 Grade 6 b Tenn same house in 1935 Both parents b Tenn Farmer Gregory, Fannie B Wife F W 56 Grade 7 b Tenn same house in 1935 Riddle, Ed J Hired Man M W 23 Single Grade 3 b Texas Rural Grady County OK in 1935 Farm Laborer The Social Security Death Index reports that Tom was living in Lindsay, Oklahoma when he died.

Some seem questionable, but one she lists as George could match a George W Gregory reported in the 1840 census for Jefferson County, Tennessee. George is one of three Gregorys listed on the same page, along with other heads of families of names known to be related thorugh marriage to the family of James Henry Gregory. George was reported to be aged between 20 and 30 in 1840. We can estimate he was born in about 1815. Too few details are known to be sure. If George was a son of Richard Gregory, and born about 1815, he would have been a son of Richard's first wife, Lucretia Jones. Since his birth date in reported in the 1840 census only in a range of age 20-30, he could have been born closer to 1820. Richard Gregory married his second wife Dorcas Fishback in 1817.

With George there was Few H Gregory, who is also thought to be a son of Richard, Gregory, and another George, aged 60-70, or born about 1870-1880. The younger George W may be a brother of Few, but the identity of the older George is more difficult to determine.

The following genealogies have been used (September 2017) to provide clues and a general Gregory lineage structure for the early generations that can be explored and verified by documented research. Gregory researcher Nathan Gregory comments on the name George Gregory in early censuses. "1790 Census Appearance - We find several George Gregory's in the 1790 Census, mostly in Pennsylvania, with nothing to link any of them to our family." "1830 Census Appearance - We find about 16 George Gregory's in the 1830 Census, and nothing that links any of them to our family." -- Nathan Gregory, Gregory Family Genealogy, https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/person/tree/7554069/person/6025965670/story George Washington Gregory BIRTH 14 Dec 1790 England DEATH Unknown Spouse Mary Hawkins BIRTH England, DEATH Unknown Richard Gregory BIRTH 20 Aug 1795, DEATH Unknown Few Hall Gregory Susannah H Gregory George Gregory -- Carolyn Cooper, Ancestry, https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/person/tree/82712569/person/48465534249/facts Carolyn reports above that George Washington Gregory was born in England. Another genealogy gives the exact date and place. But note that in the following tree the son was born in England, while the father was born in Virginia. This was in the colonial era, so it is possible Benjamin's wife was sent back to England for give birth, but this is a factor that needs further support to be accepted as definite. It is also quite possible that several different Gregory lines have been mixed in some of these minimal reconstructions, with limited or no documentation. At any rate, I think we can discount the birth in England anyway. It clashes with the overall patterns in this family.

So far, no luck." -- Nathan Gregory, comment on the profile of George Gregory on the Gregory genealogy, Ancestry, accessed 10 December 2018 Though the above genealogy puts all the children under Mary Hawkins, the dates and Susannah Few's maiden name indicate she was the mother of the known children, and Mary Hawkins was the second wife, married after Susannah died in 1808. The location of marriage for Susannah Lucretia Gregory to Joseph McAndrew in Fauquier County, Virginia, matches other family information. No record has been found to document Susannah Few's life or marriage to George Washington Gregory. Various records for several individuals named George Washington Gregory, however, are found in various areas in later generations. One location is Berkeley County West Virgina, originally formed out of old Frederick County, Virginia. This is west of Culpeper County and Fauquier County, Virginia. A marriage record is found for George Washington Gregory in 1847 in Berkeley County, Virginia, reporting marriage to a Susan Carper. There is, however, a definite connection with George Washington. But it goes back to earlier generations. George Washington, later Colonel and then General in the Revolutionary American forces, was a surveyor as a young man, and was engaged by Lord Fairfax to survey the Northern Neck lands, where the Gregorys were prominent early pioneers. He was appointed by William and Mary University as the official surveyor for Culpeper County, neighboring both Frederick and Fauquier County. Likewise there was a Mildred Washington, reported to be George Washington's aunt, who married a Roger Gregory in King William County, in the northeast, neighboring Prince William County, known to be the home of Benjamin Gregory in this Pennsylvania-Virginia line. The Gregorys in the Northern Neck and derived counties may well have known George Washington personally. The newborn in 1760, then, may very well have been named George Washington Gregory, as proposed. It would be nice, however, to find some documentation of that. George W Gregory, on the positive side, is a recurring name in this Gregory line. In most cases, no indication has been found on what the W stood for. Two actual cases of later George Washington Gregorys have been documented. Another George Washington Gregory was born 1851, the documented son of Few Hall Gregory, in our primary ancestral line of Gregorys here, born in Culpeper County in 1781. Thus we have circumstantial evidence and historical context for the occurrence of Washington as a name among this Gregory lineage. There is, additionally, an even stronger tie, which also explains the connection to the home estate of George Washington, general and then President of the United States. The plantation of Mount Vernon was originally a Gregory property. An old publication on the old families and homes of King William County, Virginia, provides important perspective on the relationship between all the old colonial aristocratic famlies there. "Mr. Lawrence Washington [Mildred Washington's father] had a silver waiter with the Butler-Beckwith arms engraved thereon. Beckwith Butler was guardian of the children of Margaret, the widow of William Robinson. Lawrence Butler, William Aylett, and John Washington were witnesses to the deed from Roger Gregory conveying the Mount Vernon estate to Augustine Washington [Mildred's brother and Geroge Washington's father] in 1726. Lawrence Washington left his Godson, Lawrence Butler, a tract of land adjoining Meredith Edwards in 1697."

This is being explored further. Records for Gregory families found so far match generational patterns and common migration routes westward and southward. The connection to Connecticut is questionable here. ---------------------- Gregorys and Fews in Migration Patterns from the 1700s By Orville Boyd Jenkins Posted on Ancestry.com 16 October 2017 One factor in reconstructing a family lineage are patterns of movement and migration. These migration paths are helpful in finding and evaluating records in our Gregory and related Few line. We see Gregory records in a generational pattern along the migration streams along the tidewater area or valleys southwards and westward. Westward Records are being discovered in the westward line from Philadelphia through Frederick and Hagerstown, Maryland, through what is now West Virginia, still part of Virginia in the era we are looking at, and on to Ohio and Indiana. Brothers John, Richard and Benjamin Gregory, thought to be sons of Isaac Gregory of Pennsylvania, are mentioned several times in lists of residents of old Frederick County, Virginia, a large area at the northern end of the Shenandoah Valley, also on a common east-west migration route. Records for a younger Richard Gregory are found in Culpeper County and Fauquier County, Virginia, on this westward path south of the Pennsylvania border. These two counties were established in 1749, cut out of Orange County, the original huge area from which Frederick County was originally established in 1743. These counties bordered Frederick County on the east. Dates and locations of various records match a line of movement from the residence of Richard's likely grandfather Benjamin Gregory of Pennsylvania, into Frederick County, and later back to eastern Virginia in Prince William County, across the Potomac from Washington, DC. This westward line of migration connects with the great Shenandoah Valley running southwestward along the eastern edge of the Appalachian Mountains in what is now West Virginia. Records for a Lewis Gregory, who appears to be a son of Benjamin, son of Isaac, are found along this Shenadoah Valley route then across into the part of Virginia that later became Kentucky, one of the areas where Fews and Gregorys come into contact. This matches the pattern of residence and Gregory-Few marriages in some of these areas along this southward line of migration. Details are found in individual notes for the Fews and Gregorys. Gregorys from this lineage moved westward a bit to the part of Virginia that is now northern Kentucky. Southward Gregorys are found along the Shenandoah Valley which runs southwestward from Hagerstown to Bristol, Virginia/Tennessee, on the border, on through Jefferson and Cocke County, which were all one area of North Carolina, then East Tennessee (current I-81 to I-40 to Knoxville) in the 1700s and early 1800s and on toward Cherokee and contiguous counties in Alabama. We find Gregorys that appear to be from two different lineages who followed the Shenandoah or similar route from Philadelphia-Baltimore through Virginia into Tennessee, our line through the easterly route of the named east Tennessee counties, the other a bit more westerly, with members of both lines in Kentucky. These two lines seem to be connected to the same line from Pennsylvania and northern Virginia. But there are indication of one or two separate migration streams in the same areas. Early sources are not clear on these lines, and similar names in what may be different lineages seem to have been confused in some genealogies. I have been through all these areas and explored these lines of migration so have these in mind as I read through records and watch for connections and clues. Westward Ho Gregorys in the line of James Henry Gregory and Rachel Lewis are found in those counties of Tennessee from Jefferson-Cocke on to Knox, McMinn (where we find both these Gregorys, with apparently no crossover), Franklin, etc, in the westward migration route. Gregorys of our lineage also seem to have moved northwestward through the mountain passes toward Louisville. Fews and Gregorys are connected in the states of Virginia, Kentucky (which was originally part of Virginia colony), North Carolina and Tennessee (which was originally part of North Carolina Colony) in several generations. The Fews in North Carolina apparently followed the westerly route over the Smokies into Tennessee into Jefferson County, Tennessee, and surrounding counties where they connected again with the Gregory lineage. We find them in the family of Francis Marion Few from North Carolina Jefferson County, Tennessee, where his daughter Letha married Andrew Jackson Gregory, my great great grandfather's brother. Crossflow Traffic went both ways along those Midwestern routes over a period of two centuries. Fews moved into the Louisville, Kentucky, area from Indiana (across the Ohio River. Gregorys and Fews also moved from eastern Tennessee into Kentucky. Great migrations northward occurred in the 1920s and later because of extensive floods along the Mississippi, destroying much of the Delta South. The depression added to this exodus northward. Midwestern droughts accelerated movement to California. Further industrialization in the next two decades and after WWII accelerated this migration northward and westward. The geographical indicators are not only contiguous counties, but similarly in the counties along these common natural migration routes, which also reveal patterns of the same family decade to decade and generation to generation. These patterns match the same kinds of patterns we find in ethnic investigations all over the world. ----------------------
George married his first cousin Mary Gregory, daughter of his father's brother Gerard and his wife Freelove Curtis. Birth and death information is provided by William Mowbray, who has done extensive work and documentation on this Gregory lineage. He produced many burial memorials on Find a Grave and linked to memorials by others, as well as providing historical information and docuemntation. It is interesting that he has no record documentation for the death of George, although he reports the date and place and has provided family connections. I have some doubt related to the location in Indiana.
