Sarah (Sally) Rainwater was my gg-grandmother. This is regarding the 1850 Census for Burrell Rainwater in Cobb Co. GA. I have examined that census page and there is a check mark beside every head of household name in the married within the year column. Burrell is family #1658 and the next family #1659 is Charles Fuller and wife Sally. There is a check, married within the year, by their name also. I have a copy of Charle's and Sally's marriage certificate and they were married 27 December 1840 in Benton Co. AL with Burrell's son, Allen Rainwater to Nancy Lambert. I suspect the enumerator was just checking off the names for the count. The following is a copy of the notes I have for Burrell Rainwater's family. There is still one son, and two daughters for Burrell that have not been identified. So far I have as Burrell's and Elizabeth's children: Jane b 1808; son abt 1810; daughter abt 1812; Allen Terry b abt 1814; Nancy Adeline Jan 1817; Sarah August 1919; daughter abt 1822; Elizabeth December 1825; and Louisa Elzora March 1828. >From Mrs. Mary Mills, Genealogist, P.O.

(Robert had been excommunicated from this church for being drunk and disorderly. He was restored to full fellowship July 21, 1810. This Robert may be Burrell's brother.)
