Family

Allen may have been married twice. According to a letter from Thomas Franklin Ray written in the 1930's, Robert Allen, Alex and John Wade were Lucinda's 1/2 brothers.

For some 25 + years, I have tried to find the ancestors of my great great grandmother Lucinda Wade Ray. Recently, a distant cousin, Sherrill Ray, found a letter written by her son, Thomas Franklin Ray, giving me the name of her father and 3 1/2 brothers. Lucinda's father, Allen Wade, can be verified via 1850 census records for Henry County, TN where an Allen Wade has several children.

Please note, I have not yet verified a large portion of this family tree.
