James Wray, son of William Wray and Ellen Boyd
Clarion County, Pennsylvania
James Wray, Vowinckle P.O., Farmington, was the seventh child born to
William and Ellen (Boyd) Wray, a pioneer family in the northeast part of the township.
James was born on October 13, 1847. His early life was spent on the farm, and in fact his whole life has been spent near the old Wray homestead. He was married in 1874 to Catherine P., a daughter of Michael Walters. They had one child, Eliza Jane.
James Wray was a lumberman, a business at which he has been very successful. Although still a young man he is strongly identified with the
growth and prosperity of his township. In its political affairs he takes no prominent part, other than for the general good. Mr. Wray is not connected with any church society, but the family attend the Presbyterian Church.
