    Sarah "Sallie" RAINER

    Female 1866 - 1951  (84 years)


    Personal Information    |    Sources    |    Event Map    |    All    |    PDF

    • Name Sarah "Sallie" RAINER  [1
      • Sarah's death record in 1951 states that her mother was Polly Beard and that her father was Joel Raynor [Rainer]. That may be the case, but in the 1880 census, Sarah was listed as his step-daughter.

        Sarah and her mother Polly (Mary) were actually living in Joel's home in the 1870 census, along with Mary's sister Julina and her son.

      • In this 1870 Census, Sarah is listed with the last name Boston [misspelled on the census], implying she's a daughter of Julina, but we learn that she is really the daughter of Mary "Polly" Beard.

      • In this census, Sarah is listed as a step-daughter to Joel, and she is listed with her mother's maiden name as her last name indicating that Polly gave birth to this child out-of-wedlock, prior to her marriage to Joel in 1876.

      • Sallie's death certificate states that her father was Joel Rainer, but I believe that to be incorrect. Per the 1880 census, I believe she was just the step-daughter to Joel.

        I believe Polly had this child out of wedlock, prior to her marriage to Joel.

      • It was actually hard for me to believe that at the age of about 78, Joel Rainer married again.

        However, after looking at the 1870 and 1880 census, it became clear that Mary "Polly" Beard was actually living with Joel and his wife before Mary "Polly" Wellins Rainer died.

        Joel went on to marry Polly Beard and they show up in the 1880 census, and Polly's daughter, Sarah claims Joel as her father in her death record.
