Children — born in Sallisaw, Sequoyah Co., Cherokee Nation [now OK]:
1.  William Eugene RASEY, b. 1877/8
2.  Charles Norbird RASEY, b. 12 May 1879
3?  Edward RASEY

Sources (n.b., in 1819, Arkansas Territory was established; in 1828, the Cherokee Nation was established in Arkansas Territory; in 1839, the Cherokee Constitution established judicial districts, including Skin Bayou; in 1851, the name of Skin Bayou Dist. was changed to Sequoyah; in 1867, the Cherokee Nation was divided into counties (i.e., Sequoyah Dist. became Sequoyah Co.); in 1907, Oklahoma achieved statehood):

1.  Marriage Record:

2.  1860 Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com):  Adelbert RAZEY (æ 10, b. NY) is living in Mansfield, Cattaraugus Co., NY, with his parents (q.v.).

3.  1870 Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com):  A??? RASEY (æ 20, b. NY) is living in Marion Twp., Jasper Co., MO, with his parents (q.v.).

4.  1880 Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com):  can't find, which is consistent with them being in Cherokee Nation, where there was no 1880 census.

5.  1890 Census:  the 1890 Census Population Schedules were destroyed.

6a.  1900 Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com):  can't find Delbert or Dora.  Presumably, they are deceased, which is supported by the fact that three of their children are living with the HATFIELDs (see next source).  However, although we find May, Hattie, and Clyde, I cannot find the other children, and I really searched.

The RACEY children are apparently orphaned.  Charles HATFIELD would later marry May RASEY.
