I AM RELATED TO JOHN COLSON BAINS WHO WAS GEORGE BAINS BROTHER. WE HAVE FOUND THAT FOR SOME REASON GEORGE'S SON THOMAS BAINS 7-4-1787 WHO MARRIED MARY MCCOY, CHANGED THE LAST NAME TO BAINES. GEORGE WASHINGTON BAINES B-12-29-1809, CARRIED ON THE TRADITION. BUT THE ORIGINAL NAME WAS BAINS FROM CHOWAN CO NORTH CAROLINA.
