Notes for Mabel Violet GRAY
Family Remembrance:214 "Mabel Violet (18??-1960) was the seventh child of the Gray family. She was an aunt of whom I knew little. She married Harry Grist who remained aloof from the family. There were no children. While he lived, Mabel led a Spartan existence in the country and had little of the comforts of life." 1887 Possible Birth Registration: Mabel Violet Gray, birth, 1887 Q2 Apr-Jun, Wandsworth, London, Surrey, v. 1d, p. 701 (FreeBMD) 1891 British Census:216 London, England (Battersea; Clapham Parliamentary Borough; St. Marks Ecclesiastical Parish) Enumerated 5 April 1891 295 Lavender Hill John E.
