Details of birth and death and marriage are from the records of Patricia Friend Newman obtained by interviewing descendants, exploring records in libraries, recording family bible information. I anticipate finding the official records as I search.
Notes
FamilySearch has two Raymond James that could be this person, both incidents are in New Mexico. This need further research before those are certain.
