note from [7] The property was earlier researched for a Historic Register application, which was awarded, and this was summarized in Pat Schooley’s book Architectural Treasures of Washington County. The deed chain goes back easily from the Ray’s current deed to 1839, but the preceding deeds back to 1765 are hard to find, causing the application researcher to report other irregularities which need to be verified. *The smaller house was used by the present owner (Ray) and her husband for a museum of Civil War artifacts, which they had collected from the old museum at 135 W. Main St.
