I too have a Benjamin Raney born 2 June 1807 married to Catherine Towell born 6 Feb 1807. They were married 30 October 1827 in Sumner County, Tennessee. I have their daughter Sarah C. Raney married to Jonas F. Johnson. I don't right now where I got that information, I thought for a census record. I also got some of my information from a lady that did genealogy all the time. I don't have Sarah and Jonas having a daughter Lura. I would like to exchange info with you. Do you need any thing on Benjamin and Catherine? I need correct info on the Johnson's. I have 5 children: William J; Louisa A; Osker; Robert A.; and Adella who is married to John W. Little. That is about all I have on them. I would be glad to hear from anyone on this family. Thanks! Ruth
