Writer says Fred Rainwater No kind of Cherokee at all About: "Rainwater Staff flew LWC cycling banner at Purdue" To ColumbiaMagazine.com: Regarding a comment in your article that says: "Fred Rainwater, whom legend describes as a Cherokee Indian." Fred Rainwater (William Frederick Rainwater) was no such thing. He was of plain English-German-Dutch stock, the son of George Alfred Rainwater and Permelia Susan Garner, of the Pulaski County Rainwaters who originated in North Carolina and England before that. Best Regards Susan Chance-Rainwater Thanks. While we do not dispute the letter above, ColumbiaMagazine.com was accurate in saying that the plaque at Lindsey Wilson College says "Fred Rainwater, whom legend describes as a Cherokee Indian." That is what is inscribed on the plaque. We appreciate the the comments, but the issue would be with those responsible for the plaque's inscription, meant to honor Fred Rainwater, whatever his ancestry. We will make a link to Susan Chance-Rainwater's note in the story about the Lindsey Wilson Cycling Team's staff. This story was posted on 2009-04-10 01:11:41
