Would like to learn more about the small community known as Rainersville which had its own post office designation from 1855 to 1867 off and on, in Butler County, AL. Understand that it would have been in South Butler in the area probably now part of Crenshaw County. Can find no information on it other than a small mention in Marilyn Hahn Davis book Butler County in the 19th Century; also a contact's info she came up on its brief history and its two postmasters before it was discontinued as a post office stop.
Especially interested in any cemeteries that would have been around Rainersville. Have a Confederate military record for a young soldier whose information states he was living at Ranersville (spelling on the card) in 1862 at the time of his induction. Am thinking that his father might be buried there (died 1866) as well as one of his sisters (died 1863).
Appreciate any comments.
