Raney Doss - Appomattox County, Virginia

In researching my husband's line, I was stumped on Raine "Renny" Walker.I recently found info that suggest that his real name was Raine (Rane) Walker Doss b.1782 (Buckingham Co., VA) d.1857 (Appomattox, VA).His wife was Mary Thomas (1780-).My husband is related through their daughter Lucinda Walker (1800-18730 Buckingham, VA).Lucinda married Creed Pendleton.So, Amanda Pendleton in the census was most likely a granddaughter or niece of Raine. I can't find any info on why he changed the family name to Walker.That would be very interesting.
If you have any more info on this ancestor, I would love to know it.
