Hello Mike,My name is Gilbert Ray of Cumberland/Hoke county NC.My family came from Scotland in the 1700's and most of the family history has been forgotten.I'm pretty sure that my Ray's came from Jura/Islay since most of my non Ray relatives, that we can trace, can be traced to those Islands.Anyway one of my great uncles did say that the name had been Darroch in Scotland.I'm presently doing the Y chromosome test right now and hope to connect to my direct male family in Scotland or here in the new world.I'd like to hear what info you have on your family.My e mail is attached please feel free to contact me.I go by Mac
