Hi, David,

Sorry to report no progress on your Robert so far, however, I do have one thing to tell you. Going back over your information, I did recognize a name. Robert was married to Nancy Byars, daughter of M.C. Byars. My husband's grandmother on his mother's side was Mayrobie Byars, daughter of Mack Byars from Blacksburg, the same M.C. Byars- real name is Malcom Camp Byars, but was called Mack Byars. We have a copy of his death certificate. Mack Byars had a second wife, but I can't recall her name right off, but will as soon as I find my records on them. I think we have a picture with him in a group of relatives. He is buried in Mountain View Cem. in Blacksburg. Oh, by the way, Blacksburg is in Cherokee County, not York County. I am still working on your Robert and I still think your Robert and our Robert Eli are cousins. I hope to be able to get in touch with a couple of people over the weekend that may shed some light on this for us. Sorry I don't have more infromation, but I will be back in touch soon.

Linda

David,

I spoke with my Aunt Gayle Wray Orange last week. She confirmed that the picture was in mid fifties, probably after Luther's funeral. She confirmed the order was Clyde, Earl, Russell, Ralph, Howard and Victor. She said Uncle Luther had a stroke in the 40's and passed in 1955.
I am attaching a scanned copy of a enlarged photo that was hanging over my grandfathers (Ralph) mantle of his father, Robert Marion Monroe Wray, during the Spanish American War. My Aunt Gayle has a copy of his discharge papers. I think Myrtle had the original. I have the large version of the photo attached now hanging in my living room. I didn't see it on your page so I thought you might like to have it. I will also get with Gayle as soon as I can to get scanned copy of Victor in the military uniform photo. I'll send more photos as I can get them scanned. I'll keep in touch.

Asked Gayle about dates too. Russell was born in 1898, not 1899. I would use the bible for baby Robert birthday. ?

Wray, Clyde Mack(b. September 29, 1892, d. August 1974)
Wray, Earl Dean(b. November 27, 1895, d. February 1966)
Wray, Russell C.(b. July 10, 1899, d. May 5, 1978)
Wray, Luther L.(b. November 23, 1901, d. May 19, 1955)
Wray, Robert B.(b. May 30, 1903, d. October 17, 1904) ? Howard?s son and grandson were named Robert
Wray, Myrtle I.(b. August 18, 1905, d. ?) ? she was alive and the only survivor when my grandfather passed in 1993 and at the funeral
Wray, Hazel Aileen(b. March 21, 1908, d. November 29, 1986)
Wray, Ralph George(b. January 6, 1910, d. January 3, 1993)
Wray, Howard Monroe(b. December 2, 1913, d. August 12, 1979)
Wray, Victor Carlin(b. April 16, 1916, d. March 23, 1985)
The picture I have at the reunion was 1968, it has the five surviving brothers. Clyde (your grandfather), Russell, Ralph, Howard and Victor. Evidently your grandfather Clyde and Earl stayed when their parents went to Richmond around 1912 being they were grown. Russell, Luther and Ralph, being they were children, and the girls went to Richmond. As mentioned before, Howard and Victor were born in Richmond. I haven?t had a chance to scan reunion photo yet but will send when I get a chance.

To: DMarsh1041


David, I am the son of Ralph G. Wray whose father was Robert Marion Monroe Wray. I have been struggling with Dad's side of the family myself. I believe you sent my daughter, Karen (Wray) Grady a 3.5" floppy diskette several years ago with information on Robert including the text from some of Nancy's letters to his army superiors before he was sent to Cuba in the Spanish-American War. If you go to "Gene's Home Page" and my family tree maker homepage URL's below, you will find everything I have learned to date about the Wray side of my family. Also, there is a photo of Robert Marion Monroe Wray on a horse when he was in the service.

My Dad, Ralph George Wray, died on January 3, 1993, three days before his 83rd birthday. All of his siblings have passed away except Myrtle Wray Mckeithan his sister who is approximately 94 or 95 years old. Aunt Myrtle lives with her daughter Katherine Mckeithan Fenton in Alexandria, Virginia.

I visited your home page and I am very impressed.

David,
I spoke with my Aunt Gayle Wray Orange last week. She confirmed that the picture was in mid fifties, probably after Luther's funeral. She confirmed the order was Clyde, Earl, Russell, Ralph, Howard and Victor. She said Uncle Luther had a stroke in the 40's and passed in 1955.
I am attaching a scanned copy of a enlarged photo that was hanging over my grandfathers (Ralph) mantle of his father, Robert Marion Monroe Wray, during the Spanish American War. My Aunt Gayle has a copy of his discharge papers. I think Myrtle had the original. I have the large version of the photo attached now hanging in my living room. I didn?t see it on your page so I thought you might like to have it. I will also get with Gayle as soon as I can to get scanned copy of Victor in the military uniform photo. I'll send more photos as I can get them scanned. I'll keep in touch.

David,

I looked at some genealogy information my father was working on back in 2002 before he passed. Here is what he had:

Wray, Clyde Mack(b. September 29, 1892, d. August 1974)
Wray, Earl Dean(b. November 27, 1895, d. February 1966)
Wray, Russell C.(b. July 10, 1899, d. May 5, 1978)
Wray, Luther L.(b. November 23, 1901, d. May 19, 1955)
Wray, Robert B.(b. May 30, 1903, d. October 17, 1904) Howard's son and grandson were named Robert
Wray, Myrtle I.(b. August 18, 1905, d. ?) she was alive and the only survivor when my grandfather passed in 1993 and at the funeral
Wray, Hazel Aileen(b. March 21, 1908, d. November 29, 1986)
Wray, Ralph George(b. January 6, 1910, d. January 3, 1993)
Wray, Howard Monroe(b. December 2, 1913, d. August 12, 1979)
Wray, Victor Carlin(b. April 16, 1916, d. March 23, 1985)
The picture I have at the reunion was 1968, it has the five surviving brothers. Clyde (your grandfather), Russell, Ralph, Howard and Victor. Evidently your grandfather Clyde and Earl stayed when their parents went to Richmond around 1912 being they were grown. Russell, Luther and Ralph, being they were children, and the girls went to Richmond. As mentioned before, Howard and Victor were born in Richmond. I haven?t had a chance to scan reunion photo yet but will send when I get a chance.
Hope this helps,

Mike

A few minutes after 3:00 AM she called the nursing station and said "I think I'm dying." They called the doctor from the emergency room and by the time he reached her room she was slipping away. She did not suffer, she just went to sleep. She is buried with her husband, Sam, in the Quaker Cemetery, Camden, SC (David W. Marshall, Sr. May 15, 1997.)

Unnumbered Documents - Marshall, Evelyn - Reflections

The full text of her reflections is shown below. Her daughter, Deanna, worked with her to get this information while she was in the nursing home. She was completely lucid and her mind was clear, so the information below should be accurate.
__________________________________

Mother tired easily and grew weary of my questions at times. I had to wait until she was in the right frame of mind and felt well enough to deal with these questions that often brought back a flood of memories to her. Therefore, the interviews extended over a long period of time. I tried to use her words insofar as I could, so I put her responses in quotation marks. I was not able to cover all the questions, but covered most of them. In any event, there may be some surprises for all of you. I know there were for me. (Deanna Brewer)

1. Your Grandparents

a. Where are they from?

Maternal Grandparents: "I don't know. Mother's mother was an old Ironside
Baptist preacher."

Ireland. Dad's mother was Dutch and had the blackest
eyes you ever saw."

b. Did your grandparents ever tell you stories about when they were little?

"No."

c. Are you like any of your grandparents in any way?

"Don't know, except I like to have fun like Daddy's daddy. I would ride on his
shoulders through the park every day after work. We lived in front of the park in
Richmond, Virginia. I waited on the curb everyday for him and Uncle Russell. I
loved them. This was when I was between six and nine years old."

d. Do you have a favorite grandparent memory?

"I liked to get on the train and go to the beach (Buckroe Beach) twice a year.

Granddad was a good cook. He cooked in the army in the Spanish-American war.
He could cook anything. Grandmother was a good cook, too. She cooked on a gas
stove and sometimes sold what she cooked--meats, vegetables and bread--everything.
Just a sideline. Granddad worked in the paper mill. They had nine children. When
she had the last one she said, She took care of the rest and he could take care of that
one.' Every time he came home, she got pregnant."

2. Your Parents

a. Do you know any stories about when they were young?

"No."

was eighteen."

pair a black patent leather shoes. I thought they were the prettiest thing I had every
seen. I was four or five years old."

c. Did you have a favorite toy?

water and had the fire just about put out before the fire department got there."

d. Do you remember an outfit you really loved?

"After I went to work, all the girls had navy blue suits with red cherries and I just had
to have one, but somebody stole my money out of my locker and I never got it."

Materially, a gold locket and chain from Mother and Dad in my early teens."

f. What was the most memorable gift you ever gave?

"My children to Sam."

g. Do you remember when you got your first skates or bicycle? How did you learn to
get around on your new "wheels"?

"First skates--I remember them very well. I wanted them so bad. I skated all over
the place. I skated down a hill and one of the wheels came off and I fell in a
neighbor's yard and hurt my arm. But I never told my mother because I knew she
would not let me skate anymore. We had a lot of fun. There was a special street they
marked off where everyone skated. I lived in front of a big park that had a big
swimming pool. They drained it three times a day and filled it and we would all go
hop in.

I learned to skate by falling-and-getting-up-and-falling-again method."

h. Tell us about the other children in your family and how you got along with them.

"My younger brother, Graham, was born sick; he had bad kidney trouble but he got
along all right. We played together. He was always sick.

I had a younger sister, Vernell, who died when she was two years old. I cried my
heart out when she died. She had a bad cold that went into pneumonia.

My sister, Pauline, was always fine and healthy. I put her and Vernell in the carriage
at the same time and pushed them around. I married when she was still real young.
Graham was still a teenager.

My youngest brother, Clyde, Jr., was only two when I got married."

i. What did your family like to do together?

"Eat. Young ones liked to swim together. Dad took us to James River and we would
swim. Our neighbor had a boat and we would ride it in James River. We went to the
Baptist Church together. Not much to do, to tell you the truth."

down to the ground. I was six to twelve years old. I got spanked once a day,
everyday. It was so much fun...

always getting in trouble."

I went to the library and got books for him. He was good looking. I corresponded
with him when we moved to Mt. Airy, but my mother made me stop because she
thought I was getting serious--and she may have been right. He was an avid reader.
I have often wondered what happened to him."

p. Who were your best friends when you were growing up? What did you do together?

"Doris Sharpe and Ellen Nunnally. Played jack rocks, hide and seek, chased little
boys around, made fudge candy and sold it to men in Chevrolet place right down the
