In Reply to: Lyman William Ray, St. Louis, Mo,, Physician by David Ray of 2034

I'm not related, but according to the 1920 US Federal census, enumerated 8 January 1920, St. Louis, living at 4540 Washington Avenue:

Ray, Lyman William, owner, age 53, b. NH, father b. NH, mother b. NH, physician, general practitioner
Ray, Beatrice, wife, age 44, b. Miss, father b. AL, mother b. AL
Harrington, Sarah, mother-in-law, age 68, widow, b. AL, father b. NC, mother b. VA

Apparently, he and Beatrice lived with her mother when they first married, then they bought a home down the street. In the 1910 census, St Louis, Ward 25, enumerated 27 April, living at 4922 Washington Avenue:

Harrington, Sarah E., head, age 58, widow, gave birth to 7 children, 3 survive, b. AL, father b. NC, mother b. VA, keeper of boarding house
Ray, Lyman W., son-in-law, age 41, married 1 year, b. VT, father b. Eng. (English), mother b. Eng. (English), physician
Ray, Amelia B., daughter, age 30, married twice, this marriage 1 year, gave birth to 0 children, b. TN, father b. AL, mother b. AL
10 boarders are living in the home.

Ancestry.com has a passport application for Lyman William Ray and Amelia Beatrice Ray, filed in St. Louis, Missouri, "to leave from port Key West, Florida, sailing on (unknown), on Dec 28, 1920." Apparently, he and Beatrice were taking a cruise? He stated in this application that he was born in Lancaster, county Coos (?), New Hampshire, on or about 13 Nov 1866, and that his father was Arnand (Arnaud?) Ray, born in Vermont, and his father was deceased. He stated that he resides at 4540 Washington Avenue, St. Louis.

It appears that there is a photograph of Beatrice on the passport page.

Hope this helps you.
