Dear June, I followed with interest your exchanges with Gary. In my American family. My earliest known ancestor is a James Ray who is found living in N.Carolina. marrys and has two sons: Jesse in 1804 and Robert in 1805. Both sons name their first born son. William. My ancestor Jesse told the tale: that the ray-rea family had lived near the lake Rea for a thousand years. But eventually the Clan (name unknown) broke into thirds. And the 1/3 living nearest the lake...took the name of the lake. HAVE YOU HEARD THIS STORY BEFORE ? can it be verified? Since my unknown emigrant must have came to America in late 1600 to mid 1700's interested in what information I might expect to find in Ireland records. Many thanks in advance for your time and considerations. Bye. Notify Administrator about this message?
