He was the youngest child, and was born in Monroe county, Mo., August 28, 1842. He grew up in Shelby county, his early training preparing him for the occupation of a farmer, which he embraced upon coming of age. He has 102 acres of land nicely improved and making a comfortable and attractive home. He is energetic and industrious, and, in consequence, prosperous. Mr. Gaines married, January 5, 1881, Miss Mary R. Stuart, born March 4, 1854, in Shelby county, Mo. Heaven has blessed them with six children, four of whom are now living: Clara B., Bertie, Thomas A. and Laura E. Though quite a young man, Mr. Gaines was elected in 1882 to the dignified office of justice of the peace, the duties of which he discharges with much credit to himself and satisfaction to the public.
