More About JOHN PLOWDEN WESTON RAY,S R: Burial: 14 Mar 1927, Marsh (Old Field/Deep Creek) Cemetery, Hemingway, South Carolina Notes for Mary E Owens: Mary Owens Ray appears with her husband in the 1920 Georgetown County, SC census. Her husband Plowden W. Ray's death certificate states that he was married at the time of his death in March, 1927. Mary E. Owens Ray does not appear in her own home or the homes of her children in the 1930 census. It therefore seems probable that Mary died between 1927 and 1930
