Hi Ron, The Abraham that married Harriet W. Goddard was the son of Matthew and Mahala (Snapp) Rainwater. I just got in from Salt Lake and I need to do a few things then I'll get back to both of you with what I have on him. He died in Tex. Abraham Butler R. son of Gideon was in Indiana and some of his desc went into Okla. I have some of that also if you want it.
