• Residence: From Frost Genealogy. Lydia, m. prior to 1638 Henry Gray, brother to John, and the Frost homestead became their property and was sold by their son Jacob to Rev. Samuel Wakeman

Lydia married Henry Gray Sr., son of William Gray and Unknown, before 1638. (Henry Gray Sr. was born in 1618 in London, England and died in 1658 in Fairfield, Connecticut.)

  Noted events in their marriage were:

• Marriage: From The Frost Genealogy, Josephine C. Frost, Page 391, Bef 1638. Lydia, m. prior to 1638 Henry Gray, brother to John, and the Frost homestead became their property and was sold by their son Jacob to Rev. Samuel Wakeman

Elizabeth, who m., 1st, John Watson of Boston and had Luke, Susan and Johanna. She m., 2nd, prior to 1638, John Grey, a tailor of Boston. They must have moved to Lynn, Mass., for Jan. 6, 1639, they sell to Valentine Hill their home, etc., in Lynn, and cither followed or accompanied William Frost to Fairfield.

Supporting information: Elizabeth Frost was married to John Watson before she married John Gray. Baptism records for her three children with John Watson were found in Nottingham, England, but no marriage record was found for her with either husband. There isn't a death record for her husband John Watson in England but there is one for William Frost's wife, Joyce Barker, who died in 1634 in Nottingham. Also no marriage record was found for Lydia Frost with Henry Gray. A marriage record for William Frost's daughter Mary exists. She was married in 1636 in Radford, Nottingham, England. There are baptism records in Nottingham for two of Mary's children. The presence of death and marriage records for other Frosts around the time John and Henry would have married the Frost daughters tends to support them being married in America. Also, it seems likely that John Watson died in America.
