Posted on: Monterey County Queries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ca/Monterey?read=296 Surname: Ray ------------------------- Seeking information about my grandmother, Florence Ray who was born in Monterey in 1871. Her brother Frederick was also born in Monterey but in 1872. Her father was Frederick Ray born about 1829 in Nantucket Mass. Frederick Ray's ancestors were Nantucket whalers and the family had been on Nantucket Island since about 1697. Frederick died in Monterey in 1913 but is buried in the Mother Lode town of Jackson. My great grandmother's first name was possible Ewina or Euina or ?, but it did appear to start with an E according to the 1880 Monterey census. Also would greatly appreciate any information on my great grandmother.
