Transcribers note: John Rayen could be John Raynes/Rains whom I believe to be 

a son-in-law of John Bottom. Thomas D. Bottoms according to my records is not 

listed in any other record anywhere. If someone knows who he is, I would 

appreciate it. In 1840, there was a Thomas Bottoms in Lincoln County, 

Tennessee that would be somewhere between 60-100 miles away.
