The Ray Family
Due to Tony being an extremely unreliable narrator with no known contact with his family, his family history and identity is almost entirely unknown.

Other relatives

Stan Palmer
Mentioned once in this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79jSuMnZw6M around the 15 min mark
Ronald Ray
Ronald Ray is presumably a sibling of Tony's. Tony and Ronald had an adversarial relationship. This may have been due to Ronald's alleged crack use, or perhaps because of Tony accusing him of crack use. Tony claims that Ronald even attended rehab on account of his addiction.[2] In any case, it is confirmed that Ronald struggled with drug addiction.[3]
Ronald Ray worked as an undercover cop and was tasked with sting operations involving drugs. Ronald Ray was murdered on April 17, 2009. Although the case remains unsolved, it is believed that the murderer was an enemy that Ronald had made through his work as a police officer.[4] [5]
Robert (Robbie) Ray
Robert Ray is a brother of Ronald Ray and is a brother to Tony. All that is known is that Tony and Robert share Frances Elkins as a grandmother. Tony has mentioned Robert a few times on his channel. In one video, Tony claims that Robert Ray may have been sleeping with Tony's ex-girlfriends.[6] In other videos, Tony warns people who have been referring to him as Robert Ray.[7][8]
In a Skype call between Tony and several others, Robert Ray became the center of discussion after Tony discovered that this wiki referred to him as Robert Ray. A meltdown ensued where Tony hurled insults and threats at Frank Sinatra, who Tony believed was responsible for spreading these lies. This meltdown has been uploaded to YouTube by the Tony Chase Archive Channel.[9] Tony uploaded his own video in response to discovering the wiki.[10] Here, he appears to confuse this wiki with Wikipedia.
Robert has tried to make contact with Tony in October 2024, ending up with tony ignoring him and doxxing him on his YouTube.
