I found this article in the October 15, 2012 issue of the tabloid "Examiner" (page 7). I cannot help but wonder if this is tied into Abby Borden.
According to Abby's Certificate of Death from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts archives, her maiden name was spelled "Gray". Her mother, Sarah S. Sawyer, was born in Little Compton, RI. Sarah's first husband, and Abby's father, was Oliver Gray who was born in Tiverton, RI.
Any feedback or musings would be great.
