Jacob Gray was an early settler in Pulaski County, Arkansas. With his brother Shared Gray, Shared floated a raft or canoe up the Bayou Meto from its mouth on the Arkansas River to a site twelve miles to the northeast of downtown Little Rock. Shared and Jacob were Revolutionary War veterans and original residents of the state of Tennessee.

The Grays settled on land that became the Reed's Bridge Battlefield in the Civil War.
