HENRY CLAY RANEY - bio extract relevant to William and Hannah Raney: ".... his parents being William and Hannah (Loomis) Raney. The father, born in Berkeley county, West Virginia, on the 10th of August, 1821, was a gentleman of Scotch-Irish descent; and an agriculturist by occupation. Removing with his parents to Greene county, Ohio, he there remained until 1844, when he came to Iowa territory by horseback on a prospecting tour. Two years later, he returned to the new state of Iowa, locating on a farm on Lick Creek, Van Buren county. On the 13th of August, 1846, he wedded Miss Emily Alexander, of Greene county, Ohio, whom he brought to this state, and who passed away on the 19th of August, 1847 (sic. her burial location is undisclosed in this account). In 1851, William Raney married Miss Hannah Loomis, and, the following year, took up his abode on a farm in Cedar township, Jefferson county. Hannah Loomis, a native of Ohio, came to this county with her parents in 1839. Her father, Nathaniel Loomis, was a gentleman of Scotch-Irish descent, and a farmer of Holmes county, Ohio. In 1891, William Raney left the farm in Cedar township, and took up his abode in Fairfield, where he spent the remainder of his life in honorable retirement. He passed away on the 17th of October, 1892. He had been a resident of this county for four decades, and had gained an enviable reputation as a substantial agriculturist and representative citizen. His wife, surviving him for ten years, was called to her final rest on the 14th of November, 1902...."
