From Find A Grave contributor Sherman-Thomas: "listed in the records of familysearch.org by the LDS Church, there are two women mentioned as wives - Abigail Bacon and Sarah Thomas. At this point, I need to see more proof before adding them. We know there were at least two sons, Amos and Jeduthan, that came from Joseph. Also, daughters Sarah and Tamor. Joseph is listed on old tax records and land records showing him living in the Amenia Precinct from about 1762 until about 1779. In April 1762, the records show that "Joseph Gray, his ear mark is a swallow tail in each ear, slit the upper side left ear." This would be his brand on his animals. Joseph's name, along with that of his son Jeduthan, appeared in a list of those protesting against the aggressions of the British crown at Amenia Precinct in 1775. On December 17, 1788, in Millerton, New York, at the Baptist Church, Joseph was present from the Baptist Church in New Canaan, Columbia County, New York and was appointed to make the opening prayer at a service that his son Jeduthan was preaching at. According to the book "GRAY GENEALOGY", Joseph Gray removed to Greene, Chenango County, New York late in life and died there on March 29, 1796 - most likely being buried in that
area."
