“Stephen le Bray” likely stands for several same-named individuals (a father and son, or namesakes). The printed indexes drive the separation; until then all 14 entries stay pooled here.

?Two people often share a name across generations. Narrow to a date window to isolate one of them, counts, map and charts all follow the window.

Similarly-spelled families (suggestions, not merged)

These surnames sound close to Bray (e.g. Warenna/Warenne, Conestable/Constable). They are kept separate on purpose, some look-alikes are genuinely different families (Clare vs Claver). If you are sure two are one family, tell us to merge them.
