Bill was born 1819, one census says Ga and the rest say Ala. He was raised in Walker Co Alabama, BUT he could have been born in Georgia as it appears that his parents James and Milla Barton Raines moved to Georgia for a short time after their marraige in Lawrence County, Alabama in 1818.

He Married Elizabeth K. Kennymore in 1841-42 in Walker County, Alabama. In 1850 they were living in Jefferson County but moved back to Walker County shortly after the census. Bill and Elizabeth's children were all born between 1843-1854 in Walker Co.:
