Hello, I believe I found your Stella May(Sutherland) RAINS.... I think she is listed as Estella, which may have been her given name? I could not find a Stella b. ca 1871 or 1872 that fit the info you gave so I tried Estella. 1880 pg. 20/ Shoal twp. Clinton ,Mo. Marion 36, b. IA., Francis 35, wife, b. Mo.,Anna M. 11 b.Mo., Estella 8, b.Mo.,Minnie 3, b.Mo., Edgar 1, b. Mo. No 1890 census for Missouri, maybe there would be a state census available? Hope this is of some help... Tina 1. Re: Can anyone pls. help find Stella May [SUTHERLAND] RAINS, b.1872 - aft 1891 Jackson Co, MO? Thank You!
