Mary Gray was born to John Gray and Martha Critshaw Gray in 1814. John and Martha Gray were both born in Scotland and came to the United State shortly after 1800 from Scotland. Mary Gray was born in Beaver County, PA.
She died in Butler County, Connoquenessing Township, Pennsylvania. The township was named for a beautiful Creek which flows through northeastern Beaver County and enters the Beaver River just at the Beaver-Lawrence County line. Its name, Connoquenessing may have been derived from the Indian word "Gunachquenessink" which means "for a long way straight". Another source suggests that it may have been named for an Indian chief named Conoquieson. George Washington recorded crossing the Connoquenessing Creek in 1753, at a place called "Murdering Town". In 1947, the Reader's Digest listed Connoquenessing as one of the ten most beautiful place names in America.
