ARTHUR LYTTON GRAY 27.04.1878 to 29.12.1939 was the 11th and last child born to William John Best Gray and Mary Ann Gray (nee Clay).
Arthur Lytton Gray married 1902 Maria Jemima Seymour born 1849 (Mother Maria Ward and Father Samuel Francis Seymour). She passed away 26.04.1907 and is buried in the private Cemetery Arlington situated on the property of Graysholm. We are not sure if there has been a mix up here and perhaps this Maria and her Mother have been mixed up with dates, as looking at the dates that have been recorded would make Maria 29 years Arthur's senior. Being only 24 years of age when he married and Maria 53 years of age does seem a bit out of whack. After doing some extensive research the ages seem to be correct. 29/11/1921 Eric Gordon Gray. Died 19/04/2005. Eric married 1. Rita Mattingly. 2. Judy Sackson. 25/03/1923 Francis Gordon Gray. Died 13/01/2011 Frank married Alma May Bentley 26/05/1926 Athol Conrad Gray. Died 10/02/1981. Athol married Pearl G. Standen. Arthur ran the abattoir in Oman Ama Qld. which is situated South West of Graysholme toward Inglewood. He later had a butcher shop in Toowoomba and Eric and Frank (two of Arthur's sons) use to deliver the meat on horseback. Frank can recall getting a big black mare from Graysholm (the Grays property between Gore and Inglewood, where the bullock trains would stop for water.) He named the horse Black Bess.
