According to FamilySearch.org his name was John Ray. It might have been John Ashford Ray but FS only gave the name as John Ray. The information was typewritten so it was presumably transcribed.
You might want to check out the jordantree.tripod.com/ray.htm website. It has some information about your John Ray there as well as the names of 5 children.
Findagrave.com has a whole virtual cemetery dedicated solely to the descendants of this couple. This should keep you busy and help you build you tree. I can never make a good link on G2G I found it when I typed "sarah autry john ray cumberland nc" in the search engine.
Did you ever contact the historian Myrtle Bridges?
