Fred Rains Life in Rainham Kent

I currently researching the work of Fred Rains, an actor and film director of the 1920s. He is also the father of Claude Rains the Hollywood movie star. Someone has suggested to me that he was brought up in Rainham in the 1860's. Do you have any information relating to this
