I'm forwarding this from a contact. Can anyone out there help Carol? I did
find Isaac ARAY in Vol. 1 Index to Mortgages by P. D'Autrechy, believe he may be
father of Jacob. Got no where on the Militia ( only copied "pertinent to
family" pages). Any ideas? Wendy

and Isaac Aray in >Hunterdon Co in 1778-1780 census and no Jacob.

resources, primarily.

confusion a listing of the >Reformed Dutch Church at Smithfield, PA lists
Adam Aray as a black man (1790s).
