He was the husband of Emma Gray, of 2, Bell’s Place, Bedlington Colliery.
Morpeth Herald 17/11/1916 carries a brief obituary:
ROLL OF HONOUR
Private James Gray, died of wounds, July 2nd. (Ever remembered by his sister Maggie, and children).
Carole Fife has provided the following:
James's military record shows that he enlisted in Bedlington and died of wounds. James was born in Bedlington in 1884 and he became a miner. In 1909 he married Emma Stevens and they had two children, John in 1910 and Henry in 1912. In 1911 James and his family were living in Glebe Row, Bedlington, and the Enlistment Book shows them as later living at the Old Hall, so it would appear that Emma moved to Bell's Place after his death.
He is remembered in Bedlington on B15.02, B15.03, B15.06, B15.20 and B15.26 page 15
