My research is involved with the Rains family. I have found Richard Rains
(born in Arkansas about 1831) and Sally A. Rains (born about 1828) living
with the David Foran family in Arkansas. I also found info showing that
David Foran was sheriff and born in Ireland. I had thought perhaps the
sheriff had adopted orphans. But---I made a few assumptions since I received
the info that David Foran's wife was Elizabeth Rains. Elizabeth could have
possibly been Richard's Aunt. This might indicate that Richard's parents
were dead and Richard and Sally had gone to live with their Aunt.
I have been very busy and I work on my genealogy in spurts. I have be
rearranging things at my house and don't know where my census info is. If
you want to check out this info, David Foran and family show up on the 1850
Sevier County, Arkansas Census and the 1860 Scott County, Arkansas Census. I
would be interested in exchanging info with you. If you find anything about
Elizabeth Rains please let me know and I will do the same.
