Rachel Adeline Carey age 40 was the daughter of James William Howard Carey and Margaret Jane Burchfiel, the granddaughter of John Wesley Burchfiel and Maryann Minerva Ailey, and the great granddaughter of my fourth great grandparents Robert (Bobby) Burchfiel and Anna Evalista Malcolm. As such, John Wesley Burchfiel was the brother of my third great grandmother Leana (Senie) Burchfiel, Margaret Jane Birchfiel was the first cousin of my second great grandmother Martha P. Reneau, and Rachel Adeline Carey was the second cousin of my great grandmother Clarissa Loretta (Rett) Nichols. Rachel married James McCage (Cage) Fain age 41 on 24 Feb 1906 in Jefferson County, Tennessee. Cage was the son of James Marion Fain and Hester Ann Berry. The family moved from Jefferson County, Tennessee to Gaston County, North Carolina sometime between the 1920 census and the 1930 census. It would appear that they moved in order to obtain jobs at the local cotton mill. |
