Hi Gene, John S. Rainwater is John Sanford Rainwater with his first wife Lucinda Shehan. They were both born in Jefferson Co.,Tn. John Sanford R was the son of James and Catherine (McCall) Rainwater. James and 2 (or 3) of his sons moved to Crawford Co.,Ark;leaving Catherine, his wife, back in Jefferson Co.,Tn.That is the James who is age 60 in the household. John and Lucinda had 5 ch/ Lucinda died before 1857 (that's when he md his 2nd wife Isabell TYLER ALLEN. They had 8 ch. I believe the John and Elizabeth are John and Elizabeth (Morrison) Rainwater.The children would almost have to be their grand-children. I'm not sure yet without checking my files though. I just got in from Salt Lake and started reading my mail. Will get back to you after I've had a chance to check.
