PLEASE NOTE:  These pages were created many years ago with Netscape Composer. Over time, the formatting on this page has gotten out of whack.  I will work on tidying it up in the near future.

 
This this outline is based on the information provided by researchers of the Raysor, Stokes, Risher, Walker and related families, from census records, The Christian Advocate, published obituaries, death records, cemetery transcriptions, veteran records, newspaper articles,  Bible records, and family notes.  Recent research indicates that Michael Raysor, Sr. migrated to South Carolina with his son, Michael, and Hannah, who is believed to be his daughter.. Thanks to all for sharing!
