Dr. James Allen Ray, at the age of 13, carried food to the
Union Soldiers. The Rebels learned of it and gave chase. He
and another lad, carrying guns escaped at night, hiding in the
wood by day, and traveling at night. When the Rebels had
trailed and almost caught them, the boy's had to drop their
guns in order to slip quietly through the weeds and brush. The
boy's did reach the Union lines safely, and enlisted, in Co.
A, N.C. Infantry under Gen. Burnside.
By Carl Martin 'Ozzie' Ray.
The Migration to Oregon of Dr. James A. Ray As Told By Luella
Ray Mills.
In May 1866, Dr. James A. Ray with wife and six children
left North Carolina for Oregon. There were four families in
the migration. My father furnished and equipped a covered
wagon for a cousin, David McMahan, his wife and six children,
namely; Perry, Cambell, Sissy, Brandon, Willy, and Tommy. Also
another cousin Ervin Ray was furnished with a team of mules and
a covered wagon. Both of these families drove on to Knoxville,
Tenn. ahead of us, and were camped near the city limits when we
arrived. The other family, Jim McKinney, wife, and several
children, planned to go all the way to Portland, Oregon by
train. Papa was to confer with them all, so that is why we met
in the depot at Knoxville. Then came the tragedy. Little
Bobby was on the bench near a roll of bedding. Mr. McZKinney
moved his gun back and forth in a roll of bedding and it fired,
hitting Bobbie through the hips. I was close by and saw him
throw up his hands and jump from the seat. The room was soon
covered with his blood. I can see it all as if it happened
yesterday. The police came but papa explained it was an
accident. Bobbie was taken to the hospital and was under the
care of a doctor, seeming to be doing well. Papa stayed in
Knoxville with him, but to save expense we went west. Ervin
Ray decided not to go further west, and so it was arranged for
mama and us to travel with the McMahan's, so we did as far as
Kansas City. Little Bobbie did of blood-poisoning. Papa
buried him, then came on to us near the crossing of the Ohio
River. We were in Kansas City July 4, 1886, we left the wagons
there and came on to Portland on the Union Pacific Train. We
stayed a few days in Portlnd with our cousins the Coats Family.
Then rented a small house, in walking distance of the school,
for one month while Papa looked for a homestead. On October
12, he filed on Oak Ranch Homestead. Then we boarded a boat
for St. Helens. The boat had only one Stateroom for all of us.
We were on the floor and on hooks, I think. We left St.
Helens with one horse and a cart. We spent one night four
miles out with 20 miles yet to go, with mama driving we took
turns riding. When we reached the Hazlet place I was too tired
to eat. But the next day on to Oak Ranch, our future home. It
was October, 1886. from: 'The Migration to Oregon of Dr. James
