Ezekiel RAZEY
Julia Ann JAQUES
Husband:  Ezekiel RAZEY
Birth:  1815/6, NY
Occupation:  carpenter
Marriage:  9 Jan 1842, Pike Co., IL
Wife:  Julia Ann JAQUES 
Birth:  Nov 1823, NY or OH
Occupation:  homemaker
Father:  Samuel JAQUES
Mother:  Eve VOGEL
 
There is a secondary source (see below) that gives Julia maiden name JAYNES and these parents.

Father [not]:  Zophar JAYNE (1802-1859) of VA and TN
Mother [not]:  Keturah McFARLAND (1808-c1841)

I don't see anything to connect her to them, and the geography, alone, would have cast doubt on it (their daughter, Julia, was born in Virginia).  The evidence below supports that her maiden name was JAQUES and that her parents were Samuel & Eve (VOGEL) JAQUES, but see especially her 1900 Census record below, for  proof that Julia (JAQUES) RAZEY was the sister of Phoebe (JAQUES) LIZENBEE, daughter of Samuel & Eve (VOGEL) JAQUES.

Please also see the census records of Brown Co., IL, for 1850, 1860, 1870, and 1880 for the presence of this JAQUES family there.  There are no JAYNE/JAYNES, at all, in Brown or Pike Cos., IL, from the 1820 census through at least the 1880 census.

Children — born in Elkhorn Twp., Brown Co., IL:
1.  William RAZEY, b. 1847/8
2.  Tilford / Tildon / Tilden RAZEY, b. Apr 1850
3.  Sarah J. RAZEY, b. 1853/4
4.  Ellen RAZEY, b. 1855/6
Grandchild — born in IL:

"Jaynes" is easily a mis-reading of "Jaques," and all other evidence points to the IGI reading, above, as correct and this one erroneous.

Italy?  Who was the informant, Mary?  Ezekiel was born in NY, not NH, and his parents were almost certainly born in NY, too.  Julia's parents were born in NY, not NJ.  If Mary is the daughter of one of their sons, which her surname implies, then her father had to have been born in IL, not NY.  On the other hand, if Mary is the illegitimate child of one of their daugthers, then at least the birthplace of her mother is correct.  Listed next to married son, Tilden RAZY.

While up to this point, there is a great deal of consistent circumstantial evidence to indicate Julia's maiden name was JAQUES, not JAYES, and that she was the daughter of Samuel & Eve (VOGEL) JAQUES, not Zophar & Keturah (McFARLAND) JAYNE — see alleged connection in next Source — this record is the clincher as to who she really is.  Phoebe Jane (JAQUES) LISENBEE is the daughter of Samuel & Eve and, as this record shows, Julia is Winfield's aunt making her sister of his mother.  While Julia was married by the 1850 census, Phoebe was not, and we find Phoebe with Samuel & Eve in 1850, so there's no doubt who Phoebe's parents are.  There was never any reason to suspect Julia was the dauther of Zophar & Keturah, in the first place, and this record, alone, proves she is not.

Unfortunately, there's no contact address, so I cannot alert the publisher of this page to the fact that she's made a significant error attaching Julia to the wrong parents.  If she is no longer an active researcher (writing here as of 7 Feb 2012), we may never be rid of this error.
