This profile of Mary Ann Morgan has her married to a Frederick Rainey, Sr. and Jesse Adkins along with having 23 children for the both of them at about the same time.

DAR records have Mary Ann Morgan married to Frederick Rainey - Patriot supporter. They note she died in VA, not in Kentucky.

From reading the info in a Wikitree, Jesse had a first wife named Mary, but only a vague Find a Grave note mentions she may have been a Morgan. His second wife was according to Wikitree Anna Poteet Morgan Adkins. Perhaps this is where the confusion comes. She was supposedly married to David Morgan.

The Frederick Rainey married to Mary Ann Morgan according to the DAR Frederick Rainey, Sr.

We need to fix. Frederick's parents need sorting also. I think that he is the son of Francis Rainey and Mary Ann Rainey , but more research is needed. the other Frederick Rainey has a different mother and it doesn't make sense somehow.
