Subject: Phebe Millien Ray - Van Buren Co, TN

It is fairly well accepted among DRAKE researchers that the youngest son of
Benjamin Drake / Sarah Buchannan was Elijah Drake (1781- 1856 Van BurenCo,
TN) and that this Elijah married Phebe Ray (1790 - 1857 ).

How much information is available on this RAY line? I have received a
gedcom files stating the following:

Moses Ray (c. 1688 - c. 1742) m. ?; > John Ray (1739 - 1813) m. Mary ?;
Phebe Millien (Million??) Ray (1790 - 1857) m. Elijah Drake.

Can this Ray information be confirmed. How far back can this RAY line be
documented? Will appreciate any help you have?
