I made a typo today on an Ancestry.com search and spelled the name "Reanshaw". There was one entry for that spelling -- Sarah Reanshaw on the 1860 census for Cornwall, Orange Co.. NY. There were also some individuals indexed as Rainshaw: John Rainshaw was in Cooper Co., MO in 1840 Henry Rainshaw was in Kensington Ward 3, Philadelphia Co., PA in 1850 There is a book entitled "Ramshaw/Ransha/Rainshaw family of Warwick County, Virginia, with Hoggard & Thurmer connections / compiled by Alice Granbery Walter" Since I don't want to copy everything on the Ancestry site, I'll just note that there are some other misc. references to Rainshaws on Ancestry.com Eleanor
