If you are not confused, please read the following: The John Ray in bold above is probably not our John Ray who married Elizabeth Noble (because of the associated John Jr), but may be the ones found later in Monticello, MS. The Joseph Ray Sr. and son Robert Ray are probably our relatives as well as Joseph Ray Jr. (also son of Joseph Ray Sr.) shown on other ID postings, i.e. see ID 406 where Joseph Jr. sells the land where his father's plantation was (on Jack's Creek, Morgan County). ID 86 shows: 1808. John Ray owns land in Clarke (on Freeman Creek) and Baldwin Co (on Little River). The land location and acres match who we thought was our John Ray on Freeman Creek with 165 ac.. So this John Ray who owns land in Baldwin County (on Little River), is shown above. If I am reading this right he also has a son John Jr. and John Sr. is still paying taxes in 1820. ... So, how could this be our John W. Ray? Still not confused...keep this in mind: ID 18 shows that John W. Ray and Jonathan Ray were on muster rolls at Milledgeville, Baldwin Co, GA 1813-1814. Would they let 10 to 12 year olds be on muster rolls? From court and above tax records and land sells (noted on this site) it looks like Joseph Ray Sr. died between 1810 and 1812. If John Ray above wasn't his son what was he doing living next door to Joseph Ray Sr. (on Freeman Crk, Clarke Co.) and answering in court for him after Joseph's death? I think we could figure out this puzzle if the pieces would stop moving. |
