He was a well read, literate man who attended medical school in Texas in the early 1900's. He practiced medicine for 60 years, living at Dillard, Cherryville, Berryman, Anthony's Mill, Sligo, Leadwood, Salem, Belgrade & Steelville, Missouri. When the new miracle drugs came on the market, he took a short course in their use to bring himself up to date. What our doctors now learn from books, he had learned from experience. Whether he went by buggy (in early days), or by car (later), he usually had a driver on call.
Rainey & Rachel had 11 children: Malcom, Oswald, Zoie, Frances, Glen, Alton, Landes & Rainey. George, Harvey & Paul all died as infants.
