Richard de GREY
[93123]
1148 - ____
Family 1
:
the viking signed a treaty in 911 giving norseman who held french land permanent rights to it. A descendant became chamberlain to Robert, Duke of Normandy and recieved the castle in Picardy and honor of Croy, changing to De Croy, then De Gray, to Gray.
There is a seaside town in Normandy named Graye. Inscribed on the battle scroll after Hastings, among the knights who fought and won with William the Conqueror, was J. de Gray. Also in the time of william was Paganus de Gray, whose armorial bearings
are listed in a manuscript of arms. A gray was made the Earl of Kent very early. they went on to have many aristocratic titles in the family (including lord of kinfauns near perth), and many royal ties, most notably Sir Edward Grey married the
daughter of Henry and heir apparent of William, and Edward IV married a widow of Sir John Gray, Elizabeth. They allied with the Royal house of Tudor. At least 20 different families of Grays emigrated from England to America between 1620-1720. The
arms:Gules, a lion rampant within a bordure engrailed argent. Crest: An anchor sans cable in pale or. supporters: two lions guardant gules. motto: Anchor, fast anchor.
Thurrock is situated in the south-west of Essex and borders the north bank of the Thames. Thurrock is the gateway to London with easy access to both Kent and Essex via the M25 motorway and Queen Elizabeth II Bridge, the longest cable-stayed bridge in
Europe.
This thriving borough encompasses huge swathes of green belt country and along its 18 miles (29km) of Thames frontage are many important marshland wildlife habitats.
Prehistoric tribes settled here and worked the land. In classical times the area was settled and farmed by Romans, followed by Anglo-Saxons, whose settlement was unearthed by archaeologists at Mucking. The importance of agriculture in the area
continued into the mediaeval period, reflected by the magnificent Woolmarket at Horndon-on-the-Hill.
The defence of the capital was closely linked with Thurrock. Henry VIII built riverside Block Houses at East and West Tilbury, which later became Coalhouse Fort and Tilbury Fort. It was at West Tilbury that Queen Elizabeth I gave her famous speech to
her troops, gathered to meet the Spanish Armada threat. Both forts played an important defence role during the two world wars and visitors can see military hardware from the world wars period at the forts as well as enjoying the tremendous river views.
Now immortalised by the film Four Weddings and A Funeral, little St Clement's Church (12th century) is in a striking location and is one of a number of picturesque ancient churches in the borough.
The area has many bridleways, footpaths and country parks, including Davy Down within the Mardyke valley. The river's floodplain is a broad tract of grassland which is an important feature of the landscape of the area.
