GAINES, POINDEXTER posted by Donna on Saturday, January 9, 1999: My great grandmother, Mattie Belle GAINES, filled out a family tree in my baby book. In it she stated that she was the granddaughter of Bernard GAINES and Martha POINDEXTER. I was taken to the graves in Henry Co., KY, "to visit the ancestors", as a child. I have no doubts that this is my line. But, as Thomas F. GAINES was not mentioned in his father Bernard 's will, I need proof. "Barney gave him his settlement early, so that Tom & Martha could get married. " Now, I need more than this oral confirmation that Thomas was Bernard's son. Since Bernard was born in that portion of Fayette County that became Jessamine County two years after his birth, I hope to find some old family records of relatives in Fayette County.
