Nancy, On the John bn: about 1766 in NC, check out John Rainwater, 1790 census, Henderson Dist., Granville co., NC. and 1810 census, Richmond co., NC for possible match. I believe this John might be son of Moses Rainwater, Sr. I show two John Rainwaters in TN in 1830: 1. John H. Rainwater, Stewart co., TN pg 55 of 1830 census 2. John N. Rainwater, Sevier co., TN pg 01 of 1830 census I don't have clue on the John S. Rainwater bn: about 1820 in TN. Good luck.
