Thank you all for your help it is really appreciated.
I agree that it looks as if Emma was not a Gray or even an Arksey but had strong connection to Kilham and I can only find 2 Emma's and 1 married a Gray and the other a Broughton and had many children ?????

I just knew that all you good people on here would come up with some answers you are just wonderful.

Now just need to find out who Emma was ????

Thanks again

AustinQ Thank you so much my friend will be over the moon when I see her tomorrow

The info is great. Is it possible that Emma married Samuel in Canada and there is a marriage record which would prove she was either a Arksey or a Gray or some other name when she married Samuel.
Sorry to be a pain but I would love to give my friend some info to search further back.

Thank you so much it is really appreciated

Yes- marriage already posted (twice) above- It doesn't look like the Emma that married Ernest Gray is the same lady that had daughter Mary Iona Hunnyset

Yep- that 1939 fits the marriage and military record- so it seems that the Emma Arksey that married Ernest Gray is not the same Emma that was mother to Mary Iona

Are you sure that the Emma Arksey that married Ernest Gray is the same lady ?

Military record for Ernest (signed up 1913) gives next of kin as wife Emma (nee Arksey)- same details were given 1917.
