Rainey Family North Carolina - Alabama - Mississippi
A goodly portion of the data used to compile the Rainey Family pages on this web site were obtained from the files and records of the late Josephine Rainey Kemp Carr. Some of the material is on pads and other scraps of paper in her own handwriting. A goodly amount is information and family trees sent to her by others. I am in possession of this material. Listed below are the names of some of the contributors of information from which some significant piece may have been extracted. I have been in direct contact with some of these researchers and have had no contact with others. Thus, some of the contributors may or may not be aware of their indiviual contribution. Some information now in my possession I have no idea who contributed it. I also obtained some assistance from several family web sites and/or GedCom files (family trees), on file at a number of different web sites. Among these, I would include the online files of John T. Palmer, Susan Johnson and Curtis Elliott.

The search goes on. Not all generations for which I have information has been posted. Additional information and additional generations of people will be added from time to time. If any of you out there have additional information, data, what ever, I am receptive to input of more data, correction of erroneous information or criticism. I prefer constructive criticism but will accept what ever anyone has to offer in what ever form. This is a family project and I appeal to the extended Rainey family to come forward and participate. My email address is on every page. Get in touch!
