Hello, Have been told the name of RAINE and RAINEY were from the same family as RENNIE, RENNEY and RENNY, many years ago, and were copied down incorrectly, have you heard that ? RENNIE is originally from Scotland, and have heard it was from the Norman names of RENAUD and RENAUX after 1066. Cheers, Pam [ RENNEY ] McKinley in Arizona.

No, Pam, I havn't heard that, but it's quite logical. The RAINE family I have is a collteral line, with information beginning in1927, when James Raine married Doris COWLING from West Cornforth. All the children were b. in Cornforth. Thanks for your posting. Ruth
