Obray, Samuel William - Biography

Thomas's father, Samuel Obray, took him when he emigrated to the U.S. without the mother's knowledge because she (Margaret Harris Obray) refused to emigrate. Samuel left his other son, John, with Margaret, as he was just a baby. John may have ended up living with Margaret's parents.
