If you are related to the Bains

I have worked through some old photos and records this Thanksgiving week.

If you are related to me and the Bain family in some way -- here are a few snaps that I made back in 1984 while in the Memphis Public Library Archives. The 1880 National Census for the State of Tennessee, DeKalb County.

This is Archabald Bain - my Great GrandFather and Cornelius  (Neely) Bain my GrandFather.








Arch was 25 years older than his wife Rachel.

My GrandFather was 12.

Aunt Mary, Uncle Si, and Uncle George all eventually moved to Alabama and were known by my Dad, John Walton Bain, in Limestone County.


 These two entries beside Arch list states of origin and last residence as Virginia and North Carolina.
