I am trying to find more information about my G-grandmother:

Eudorea Gray – b. 17 Apr 1864 or 1871; married Joseph Cephas French bef. 10 August 1893; died February 1929 Union City, TN; buried City Cemetery, Erin, TN.

She had a twin sister named Victoria who never married but was very wealthy through buying real estate while working for a tobacco company – American Snuff Company (later known as the Condon Corp.). The 7th Street Babtist Church on Chelsea street (and 7th street) in Memphis to whom Victoria gave her inheritance (5 houses and a car) has a stained glass window dedicated to her memory

Their father was a traveling preacher with a wagon with a tent and chairs. Victoria and Eudorea (“Vicky and Dody”) sang for him.

They also had an uncle named Dossie Gray from Waverly, TN.

Any information about any of these ancestors would be greatly appreciated!
