[118] The surname MAVITY has also been reported as 'MAVADA'. The latter spelling is believed to be in error, because of the presence of two 'MAVITY' sisters in Indiana. These sisters also married BRANSCUMS, and lived in Indiana during the same period Rebecca did. Also, there were no 'MAVADA' families in this area at this time.

George migrated to what soon became the 5th County (now Kingfisher County), Oklahoma in 1889. This trip from St. Joseph, Missouri to Orlando, Oklahoma was on a Sante Fe train so crowded, George found himself standing all the way. He filed a claim on 160 acres of land eight miles east of Hennessey, Kingfisher County.[1]

He taught school and was appointed the first county clerk of "C" county, now Blaine County, by Governor A.J. Saey of Oklahoma Territory when the Cheyenne-Arapahoe country was opened to settlement in 1892. George made the 1893 Land Run into the Cherokee Strip into Garfield County, Oklahoma, where he taught school and served as school superintendent of Garfield County 1904-1913. [2]
George was also a member of several organizations. His love for teaching prompted his first published book, "Oklahoma School History", as he saw the need for the schools to have a preserved form of Oklahoma History. (Officially, the book was co-authored by
Frank Wyatt, but Mr. Wyatt was actually in France at the time the text was prepared). The manuscript was soon adopted as the official text for public schools of Oklahoma. [1] This was only the beginning of a long string of educational books and maps about the history of Oklahoma George would author.
George was inducted into the Oklahoma Heritage Hall of Fame in 1938.
George authored several Oklahoma related history books. I have read "No Man's Land-the Story of a Landed Orphan",(Co-Operative Publishing Co., Guthrie, OK, 1937), an history of the
settlement of the OK Cherokee Outlet. From Indiana, I went to an Oklahoma
library, who eventually located a copy in the state of Tennessee.
George purchased land in Kingfisher County, Oklahoma, September 28, 1889

GEORGE RAINEY--Author of several of the textbooks which are on the approved
list of volumes authorized by the State Board of Education, George Rainey has a
record which comprises a number of other important, beneficial and advantageeous
deeds he has performed for the community in which he has made his home. Mr.
Rainey has the greatest collection of Indian pictures, not equaled anywhere
excepting in such institutions as the Smithsonian. He was the first and second
president of the "Oklahoma Free Home Association," 1892 and 1893. The purpose
of this organization was to relieve settlers of the purchase price placed upon their
land by Congress. He has been prominent as an educator and was Superintendent
of Schools in Garfield County. At this time Mr. RAiney is officiating as postmaster
at Enid, being first appointed by the late President Harding and receiving his
reappointment from President Coolidge.
Mr. Rainey was born in Gentry County, Missouri, January 2, 1866, the son of
Samuel S. and Frances (Mathis) Rainey, the former a native of Tennessee, and the
latter of Andrew County, Missouri. The great-grandfather of Mr. Rainey, Benjamin
Rainey, was Chaplain with the North Carolina troops during the Revolutionary War.
Mr. Rainey's mother was the daughter of Littleton Mathis, of Floyd, Virginia, whose
father fought in the War of 1812. Littleton Mathis himself had done much to make
Oklahoma history, for he was a member of the company of United States Dragoons
which made the memorable expedition with General Henry Leavenworth and
Colonel Henry M. Dodge in 1834 across what is now the State of Oklahoma.
Samuel Rainey was a soldier in the Civil War, a member of Company H, First
Missouri Cavalry.
The early education of Mr. Rainey was obtained in the public and high schools of
Albany and Stanberry, Missouri, following which he graduated from a business
school at the latter place, known as the Stanberry College. After leaving the
Stanberry College, Mr. Rainey taught for four years in the schools of Missouri, after
which he came to Oklahoma. This was in 1889 and he homesteaded in Kingfisher
County. He was appointed County Clerk in Blaine County then "C" County, in April,
1892. He served in this capacity for one appointive term and one elective term.
Returning to Missouri, he taught school in that State for another five years and then
came once more to Oklahoma. He settled this time in Garfield County, where, in
1904, he was appointed County Superintendent of Schools. He was elected to that
office in the fall of that year and was subsequently reelected, serving until July,
1913. Mr. Rainey holds a life certificate entitling him to teach in Oklahoma high
schools. He organized and was principal of Pawhuska Junior High School in the
late part of 1915. He was in this post until 1917, in which year he returned to Enid,
where he taught school until appointed acting postmaster in 1921. This
appointment was made regular in the spring of 1922 by the late President Harding
and, as stated, Mr. Rainey was re-appointed by President Coolidge in 1926.
Of the books which have been written by Mr. Rainey, some of the most
important are in the following list: "The Oklahoma Historical Charts," which have
been used as textbooks in the schools since 1917; "Civil Government, National and
State"; "History of the Cherokee Strip;" and "Indians of the United States." Mr.
Rainey was also joint author of a school textbook, "Oklahoma History," which was
used in all the schools from 1919 to 1924, inclusive.
In Masonry, Mr. Rainey has held and still holds some very high offices. He is an
active member of Enid Lodge, No. 80, Free and Accepted Masons; Enid Council,
No. 34, Royal and Select Masters; Enid Chapter, No. 27, Royal Arch Masons; Enid
Commandery, No. 13, Knights Templar; Guthrie Temple, Ancient Arabic Order
NObles of the Mystic Shrine; received the Order of the High Priesthood; served as
Worshipful Master of Washahsha Lodge, No. 110, and of Enid Lodge, No. 80; High
Priest of Pawhuska Chapter, and Generalissimo of the Commandery of that place.
He was appointed Grand Sentinel of Oklahoma Grand Jurisdiction of the Order of
the Eastern Star in 1927, and is now its Associate Grand Patron. For two years he
was chairman of the Advisory Council of DeMolay in Enid, and for one year
president of the High Twelve Club. He is an active member of the Enid Chamber of
Commerce and of the Lions Club, being district representative of that organization
for 1927. He is a member of the Enid Writers' Club; the Enid Camp of the Sons of
Veterans; president of the Oklahoma Association of Postmasters, 1923 to 1927;
regional vice-president of the National Association of Postmasters for the States of
Oklahoma, Kansas and Nebraska, 1925 to 1928, and was on the State Library
Board for 1906 to 1908. An active member of the Christian Church of Enid, Mr.
Rainey was for seven years chairman of the official board and has been for several
years past superintendent of the Junior Sunday school. He has also served for
three years as a member of the Enid Park Board.
On July 20, 1890, Mr. Rainey married, at Orchid, Missouri, Lulie Gilbert,
daughter of Thomas and Sarah (McGinnis) Gilbert, the former a veteran of the Civil
War who fought with the Sixth Missouri Cavalry. Mr and Mrs. Rainey are the
parents of a son, Thomas Gilbert Rainey, born April 2, 1907.
