Hi, I'm Robert Raines and I connect to this family also. These people left Randolph Co., N.C. and came to what they called the Caney Branch, which is a fork into a larger river. The major town they lived in was McMinnville. Mostly when they first settled it was just Warren Co., but like all other areas it grew. You will find this town about half way between Nashville and Chattanooga. ----- Original Message ----- From: bellsouth <jagg@bellsouth.net> To: <RAINS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, April 10, 2001 6:11 PM Subject: Re: [RAINS] another Robert Rains in Warren Co TN > dear cousin, > james and elizabeth jackson rains are my grandparents also, i cant locate > info from warren co cant even find out what town that was dont lose my name > we need to talk i think you have some very very important info for me good > to hear from a direct line > cousin > suzanne rains kelly > savannah,georgia > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Jan Holloway <janmmh@sirius.com> > To: <RAINS-L@rootsweb.com> > Sent: Thursday, March 22, 2001 1:31 PM > Subject: [RAINS] another Robert Rains in Warren Co TN > > > > I'm especially interested in another Robert Rains from Warren CoTN.
