"This book, in two volumes, is one of various books I have developed on descendants
of many family lines within my family. The book was a means to better orgainze the Bray
families living in the United States of America. It does not includes all families of the
USA or any one region, but of those available to me at this time (1991). The book is
organized using 1. (MRIN) Marriage record identification number and 2. (IRIN) Individual
record identification record. ... The book is primarily made up of family group sheets
which include information about births, marriages, death dates and location of events.
Some narrative is included ..."
