DANIEL PATTEE RAY,

Deceased, was for many years a leading tanner in Blair County, and had been a prominent manufacturer in the city of Philadelphia prior to his location here.  He was energetic and enterprising, and possessed of fine business ability.  He was the youngest of eight children born to John and Elizabeth (Pattee) Watkins, and first saw the light on January 5, 1830, at Kearsage Gorge Mountains, near Warren, New Hampshire.  His mother dying when he was only two weeks old, he was regularly adopted by a Mr. Ray, whose name he assumed. 

His paternal grandfather was Capt. Jason Watkins, who was born near Warren, New Hampshire, September 26, 1765, where he died March 7, 1840.  He was a farmer by occupation, and served in the war of 1812, holding a captain's commission.  He married Sarah Waldin, [Waldron] June 19, 1788, and had a family of eleven children, all of whom were born at the old homestead, near Warren, New Hampshire.  They were:
1.   Mollie, born June 5, 1789, and died in 1824;

2.  Abner, born July 9, 1791, a lifelong resident of Warren, where he became prominent in political circles, and died April 21, 1843;

3.   Ruth, born December 13, 1795, and died April 18, 1837, having married a Mr. Moon, and
               had several sons, one of whom became consul to Algiers;

4.  Jacob W., born June 9, 1796, and deceased in September of that year;

5.  John W., father of the subject of this sketch;

6.  Abigail, born March 18, 1800, and died May 7, 1851;

7.  Jason, born May 24, 1802, and passed away the following year;

8.  Hannah, born November 15, 1804, and slept in death September 23, 1883, having married Col. William G.  Flanders (a son of Moses   Flanders, one of the early settlers of New Hampshire), who served as an officer in the militia of this State;
             
9.  Ebenezer, born July 13, 1806, and is now deceased;

10. Jason (2), born July 24, 1809, and died in Missouri;

11. Elizabeth, who was born December 30, 1811, and departed this life April 7, 1844, at the old homestead in New Hampshire.
 
 John Watkins (father) was born at the old homestead near Warren, New Hampshire, crossed the continent in 1856, and located in California, where he died July 1, 1867.  He was a farmer in New Hampshire, but devoted his attention to fruit growing in California. 

He was a whig in politics, and married Elizabeth Pattee, by whom he had a family of eight children:  Sarah, married Rev. Stillman Border, a Universalist minister and geologist, who died Rockford, Massachusetts; Aura, died at Manchester, new Hampshire; Charles, deceased;  John H., also dead; Malinda, married David Hall, of Manchester, New Hampshire, and is now dead; Keziah, married K. T. Emery, deceased, a merchant from Concord, New Hampshire; Mary, who became the wife of George W.
Clark, of Philadelphia; and Daniel Pattee, the subject of this sketch.

   Daniel Pattee Ray was reared principally in the State of New Hampshire, and received a good common school education in the New England public schools. In the spring of 1844 he removed to the city of Philadelphia, where he engaged I the manufacture of leather belting.  He conducted this business successfully until 1871, and during part of this time did an immense trade, operation a tannery at Altoona, this county, in connection with his belting business in Philadelphia.  In 1871 he disposed of his interests in the latter city and removed to Tyrone, this county, where he continued to reside until his death, in March, 1881.  After coming to Tyrone he erected a large plant, now known as the Bald Eagle tannery, and engaged in the tanning business exclusively.  In 1873 this plant was destroyed by fire, but subsequently rebuilt by Mr. Ray.  He continued to operate it until his death, when his two sons, John K. and Daniel P. Ray, assumed control of the business.  The Bald eagle tannery has a capacity of one hundred and seventy-five hides per day, and runs three hundred days a year, manufacturing the celebrated brand of "Union" sole leather, both oak and hemlock tanned.  It employs about forty men the year round, and turns out a superior article of leather, known in nearly every part of this country. 


   In politics Mr. Ray was a republican, as are his sons, and during his residence in Philadelphia served in the common council of that city, being appointed on a number of important committees.  He served as chairman of the committee appointed to receive General Sheridan on the occasion of his visit to Philadelphia.  After coming to Tyrone, he served that borough burgess and school director, and was a member of the Masonic order. 

   On August 1, 1852, Mr. Ray was united by marriage to Anna M. Keim, a daughter of John and Emily (Carr) Keim, of the city of Philadelphia, who still survives him and resides in a beautiful and comfortable home in Tyrone.  To Mr. And Mrs. Ray was born a family of four children, two sons and two daughters:  John K., born September 28, 1853, married Mariah M Cadwalader, and resides in Tyrone, where he is connected with the Bald Eagle tannery; Daniel P., born October 7, 1854, wedded first to Clara Cadwalader, who died July 4, 1886, after which he married Anna M. Piper, of Hollidaysburg, and in connection with his brother operates the tannery at Tyrone; Catherine E., now the wife of John W. Home, a book-keeper at Tyrone; and Emily, who married Charles N. Gray, a merchant of Tyrone.
