I am new to the RHEA list and this is my first posting. There may have
been previous traffic on this name so please bear with me. I am
searching for the ancestry of William Ray/Rea who was born in Ireland
and came to America sometime before 1750, first settling in Derry Twp.,
Lancaster Co., PA before moving to St. Matthew's Par., Orange Co., NC.
His wife's name was Catherine (-------) and they had the following
children:

(1) Mary - b: 1734, Ireland; d bef 1807, Orange Co., NC; m: Michael
Robinson, ca 1753, (PA).

(2) (William) - b: 1730, Ireland; aft 11 Mar. 1794, Orange Co., NC;
m: Martha (-------).

(3) ( Dau ) - b: (Ireland); m: John Mordah, (NC).

(4) ( Dau ) - b: (Ireland); m: James Mordah, (NC)

(5) (Robert) - b: Ireland/NC; m:(1) (---------); m:(2) Hannah (------).

(6) ( Dau ) - b: Ireland/NC; m: Patrick Rutherford.

(7) (David) - b: Ireland/NC; d: bef May 1808, Orange Co., NC.

(8) (John) - b: Ireland/NC; d: bef Feb. 1829, Orange Co., NC; m:(1)
(----------); m:(2) Sarah (Sallie)Miller, bef Feb. 1795.

(9) (Joseph) - b: Ireland/NC; m: Lydia Miller

Obviously, this group sheet is a bit sketchy. If anyone out there can
help provide details on this line, I would appreciate it very much.
