Hello,

I find this very confusing. All the records that I have on Elias and Pherby
shows that her name is Ray(Rhea). The application that ELias filled out for
a pension while he was in the War of 1812. It shows that he was married to
Pherby Ray, in Warren County, TN. Poss the years of 1810-1814.

I am planning to go to the library in Nashville to research the Brasseale
family. I live near Huntsville, Al and the library is ok to do research, but
I need more research materials.

I will go ovr my notebooks, and will get back to you..

Thanks,
Tony
