Notes for Rev. James Henry Gregory
His death certificate records James H. Gregory, age 75 years 0 months 18 days, born 29 Apr 1843 in Ky, died 17 May 1918 in Rowan Co., Ky, married, farmer, father Jimison Gregory, birthplace don’t know, mother’s maiden name Miss Jones & don’t know given name, born in Ky, cause of death senile gangrene, informant Jas M. Gregory, burial in Gregory Cemetery.
He was also sometimes called John Henry. The name is seen both ways, with James for earlier records and John for some later ones. For example, it is James in the 1850 census, James H. in the 1860 census, and James Henry Gregory on the marriage record of his daughter Lizzie to Harvey Alfrey, but John Henry Gregory on his gravestone. When he signed marriage registers as the officiating clergy, he signed as Rev. J. H. Gregory. Some other records, e.g., the marriage record of his son Matt, just say Henry. It appears that as an adult he went by either Henry or J. H., and by the time of his death, his surviving children were not in agreement on what the J stood for.
