Oooh, on FMP there's an administration of the estate of (yet another!) Jonathan Bray, who died in (or the admin was dated) in 1813. The person dealing with the estate was another Johnathan Bray (yours??) ribbon manufacturer of Cov and his signature matches one I saw somewhere else a little earlier today!! I think it was a witness to the marriage of James Bray to Sarah someone, but I don't have time to look again now.

The dec'd man's widow was called Ann (noted on the administration)

So, if this is your Jonathan, his sig is not particularly like the sig on the 1815 marriage. I guess he doesn't have to be administering the estate of his father - it could be brother, uncle etc. Need to see the age of the dec'd to get a handle on that.

I can't find a burial at the moment.
