Rains 1911-1967 by: Charlotte Holloway September 12, 2000 The books of R.M. Rains were kept for his business. The people listed in the books either bought goods from him, did work for him or he purchased good from them. I know nothing about this business nor the people listed. I just hope it might give someone a lead on their family. One book says Brownsville and another says Ripley, so I'm listing this in both counties. Some of the writing was hard to read as these books have been in a shed for many years. Anderson, John Anderson, Mike Anthony, E.D.
