    • Alexander W. Wray is listed as being 56 years old in the 1860 census. His wife is listed as being 60 years old. In the same household are Milly 30, Andrew W. 25, Mary A, 20 and Robert 19. Daughter Martha is already married by this time. Based on the marriage certificate, I presume that his middle name must have been William.
