Looking for GRAY family in Jumbo, Oklahoma

Query by txbirdlady

My great great grandmother was Mary Leecie Gray (Guess)born in Llano County, Texas in 1883. She married James Amos Guess but I am unsure of the date or where they married. I do know they had their first child in 1898.
My grandmother said she was buried in Jumbo, Oklahoma some time between 1915 & 1929 by her parents. I do not know the names of her parents. I could not find her name listed in the Jumbo cemetery online archives but I am aware that there are many unmarked or lost graves there.
I would appreciate any information on the Gray family in this area of Oklahoma.

Thank you so much for this information!!! I am so grateful to you for this! My grandmother was confused about which hospital she was in and without a court order I was unable to get records of where she was. My grandmother is in poor health and I am hoping to find where she is buried so I can take my grandmother there before she passes away. I started searching Oklahoma cemeteries in the county she was supposed to have been buried in but no luck.....the search continues.....

I gave you the wrong link it should be:

There is a tree on ancestry that has Mary Leecie Gray's parents as:

John Davis Gray
Birth 10 April 1838 in Nashville, Tennessee, USA
Death 3 April, 1919 in Aspermont Texas

Mary Winefred Millsap
Birth Dec 1844 in Kansas City, Jackson, Missouri, USA
Death 15 FEB 1906 in stevens co texas

I do not know if this is correct or not because I cannot find a birth reg or baptism. Might be worth looking into.
