If anybody has information concerning these 2 families I would be very grateful. The Raines and Hart's are on my paternal side and I have hit a brick wall.

names, date and places would help please

Oops! Elizabeth Raines (Nee Hart), Married to William Raines around 1859. I believe Elizabeths father, Richard Hart , was born on Tythe Farm, Bedfordshire. The bit I'm stuck on is Williams parents. He was born at 12 Dunstable Road, Luton, Beds in 1838. The Raines family owned a Straw Hat Making factory in Luton in the mid to late 1800's.

Would you happen to have any information of William D Raines, (b. 1838) His mother was possibly Mary Raines (b. 1776) but I have no info on his father.
