Charles
Ray Anderson most likely went by his middle name Ray, was born 22 Dec 1905 in
Buffalo Springs, Clay, Texas to Washington Alonzo & Isabelle Vivian (Tyner)
Anderson. There is a possibility that his birth date is incorrect, but at this
time much of my research points to the above date. He had 15 siblings, born
between 1880 & 1909, one of which did not survive but I haven't been able
to locate any more information on that child at this time.
In the 1910
Census Ray was living in with his parents in
Justice Precinct #5, Clay County, Texas, where they give his name as Raymond
& he is 4 years old, there are many of his siblings still living at home
and one married brother & his wife. I can make out his father's name as
Washington A but much of his mother's name is unclear although I can definitely
see the middle initial is a V, and when I look at the image on ancestry I do
see that the index connected to this census page has her name as Isabelle V.
In the 1920
Census he is still living with his parents
but they are know in Earl Township, Jefferson County, Oklahoma and there are
less children in the household. He is 14 years old.
So sometime between 1910 & 1920 he, his parents and the remaining children in the home moved to Oklahoma, I haven't pinned the date or even year down on this yet...it is on my to do list.
If you have any questions or know any information regarding any of the ancestors I share about, please leave me a comment.
