His mother died in 1909.

Wartime Service
No Service Record was found.
Additional Information
His brother Leonard served with 2nd Battalion Bedfordshire Regiment and was killed in action on 27 Jun 1916.
*1 There are two L Grays associated with Bishop’s Stortford Lawrence and Leonard (poss Lenard). Lawrence is named on the Holy Trinity Church Memorial, however the Town memorial only lists L Gray, so it could be either. Given that Lawrence is named on one memorial, it seems more likely that he too is the man named on the Town memorial, but we cannot be sure.
