OBITUARY: Barry Adage Newspaper, Barry, Pike, IL, Thurs. Nov 7, 1901, Thomas Tracy Gray was born in Berlin, New York April 23, 1812, and died in Barry, Illinois Nov. 4, 1891(should be 1901). Had he lived until April 23, 1902, he would have reached the age of 90 years. Mr. Gray was reared on a farm, but on the death of his father, farm life was abandoned to accept a clerkship in his native village. Oct. 20, 1838, he was married to Frances Crandall and the following year removed to Illinois it requiring almost a month to make the trip by canal, lake, and river. He reached Barry, Ill., early in June 1839, since which time he has been an honored and respected resident of our town. He lived an active, useful life, generously contributing to the extent of his ability to the comfort and welfare of his family. He is survived by his wife and eight children. Uncle Tom, as he was familiarly called, saw the town of Barry develop into the present state from a vague, uncertain little settlement, always taking a heartfelt interest in its growth and prosperity. His familiar figure will be missed by many and a void made in his home now broken. In former years he was a member of the Baptist church, but for a number of years made no public profession of religion, but in his quiet home bowed to the infinity wisdom of God, diligently searching the Scriptures and endeavoring to guide his life from the sacred truth it contained. The last days of his sickness, he seemed to realize his end was near and wanted to die and go home to God. His peaceful death closed a long and useful career. His honesty, integrity, his excellent mental qualities, his kindness of heart and sympathetic nature will make his memory a sacred pleasure to his sorrowing family and many friends. Funeral services were conducted from his late home Wed., Nov. 6, 1901 at 11:00 o'clock by W.M. Hailey. A large number of his many and lifelong friends were present and followed his remains to Barry cemetery, where interment was made.
