Anthony Grey, 9. Earl of Kent

Anthony Gray, 9th Earl of Kent (* 1557; † 9th November 1643) was an English nobleman.

He was a son of George Gray and Margery Salvaine. He was a direct descendant of George Gray, 2nd Earl of Kent and his second wife, Catherine Herbert, from his father.

Gray married Magdalena Purefoy, a daughter of William Purefoy and Katherine Wigston. They had several children, including the son Henry, to whom, after the death of Anthony Gray, the nobility of an Earl of Kent passed. He inherited this title in 1639 at the death of his childless, second-cousin, Henry Gray, 8th Earl of Kent. Single-level Edit source text Weblinks Edit sourcetext
