Speculation is that John W. Raney/Rainey of Bedford Co., Tennessee is descended thru my Raney/Rainey line.
A Raney/Rainey DNA Project is now in progress, using the male Y Chromosome matches to prove relationship.
It is a very simple & easy test, using a swab sample of the inside of both cheeks.
This is probably the greatest thing that ever happened to Genealogy.f
Our DNA Group now has 6 matches, proving relationship that was only an assumption before.(Descending from Benjamin Johnson Raney/Rainey of Bedford County, Tennessee).
We are expecting to have more matches, to take our line back in time.
The Administrator of the Project is as follows:
