I represent Anne Raincock. I was a resident of Pensacola during the British period. I was the wife of George Raincock, merchant, justice of the peace, and member of provincial council. George and I had two children, one of whom was Dorothy. She was baptized in Pensacola on April 26, 1771, but died at the age of ten weeks on June 4, 1771 of fever and flux (severe dysentery). In 1772, I petitioned for and was granted 1,000 acres of land in the western part of the province in my own name. We had a plantation on George’s grant, but when the American Revolution broke out in 1776, we headed back to England.
