Census: 1880 Milton, Rock Co., Wisconsin: age 20

"The Journal-Telephone", Milton Junction, Wisconsin, Thursday, Nov. 15, 1923, p 1.
Frank B. Gray was born in the town of Milton, Rock county, Wisconsin, Jan. 24, 1860, on the farm now owned by Kristian Lima. He spent the years of his boyhood and young manhood in the vicinity of Rock river. He was the youngest of a family of four sons born to Henry and Sarah Gray and was the sole survivor of that family.
On July 3, 1886, he was married to Miss Ruth Leona Lackner of the town of Fulton and to this union was born one child, Mrs. Ernest Buchanan of Janesville, who was left motherless at two years of age. On Feb. 21st, 1900, he was united in marriage with Miss Mary Emogene Miner of Milton Junction, and to them were born seven children, Mrs. Archie Sanford of Janesville, Howard, Francis, Ruth, Harry, Laurence and Josephine. There is one grandchild, Naomi Ruth Buchanan.
For several years Frank Gray held one of the rural mail routes out of Milton Junction, and his genial, kindly nature won for him an ever widening circle of friends and acquaintances throughout the surrounding rural districts. Although having heavy home responsibilities he always had a helping hand and ready sympathy to extend to a friend or neighbor in times of sickness or trouble.
In the spring of 1910 he moved with his family from Milton Junction to the farm near Koshkonong, which is their present home. Although for some time he had not been in perfect health he had been able to pursue his occupation of farming with the assistance of his family. He was stricken suddenly about midnight last Wednesday and passed rapidly from delirium into a deep coma from which he never rallied and the end came peacefully about 5 p. m. on Saturday, Nov. 10. The children were all at home during the brief period of their father's illness and in the care of his devoted wife, assisted by Miss Ruth Guernsey, a trained nurse of Janesville, he was given every possible chance for recovery. As it was in the home circle where his deepest interest lay, so it is here that his loss is inexpressive.
Farewell services were held at the home on Tuesday at 1:30 p. m. conducted by Rev. Henry N. Jordan, assisted by a male quartet from Milton College. Interment was in Milton Junction cemetery.
