Are George Reaney (b 1868 to John Reaney and Isabella Matthews) and George A Rainey the same person? My DNA seems to fit this theory.
George Reaney disappears after the 1881 census. George A Rainey has no records that I can find before 1910. George A Rainey's info on records is confusing...born in Canada or NY, not sure of birth date, does have family names that are found in the John Reaney/Isabella Matthews line...George Albert and Milford.
Just a theory and I'm still looking for additional records for both Georges, so I won't add any additional ancestors to this line. I did find a copy of George A Rainey's death certificate which states his father was William Rainey and mother unknown. This info was provided by his son Roland Rainey, whose mother was Tabitha Carver. I haven't been able to find any records for a William Rainey that fits into this line.
