I'd like to exchange information with anyone interested in the OWENS
and HOPPER families who were in Pulaski County during the years
1844-1865. MATHEW OWENS (b:1790, m:1813), his wife KATHARINE SOWDER
(b:1791), and their son DANIEL OWENS moved from Claiborne County, TN
about 1844. Daniel married MARTHA HOPPER in 1849 in Pulaski County. I
suspect that Martha and her parents are also from Claiborne County but
can't confirm this. Daniel and Martha Owens moved to Pike County, IN
about 1864 and later to Warrick County, IN.

I am attempting to find the parents of Greenup "Green" RAINEY b. 1848
in KY. The 1860 Pulaski County census lists him as living in the
household of Celia RAINEY (b. abt 1821 KY) and as having a brother
James (b. abt 1851). None of these people were listed in any earlier
Pulaski County records, and Celia and James were not in Pulaski County
in 1870. I would like to know Celia's maiden name, Mr. RAINEY's given
name, and where these people came from and went to. They are
apparently NOT related to the other RAINEYs in Pulaski County at the
