That home was destroyed by fire on Sunday night at approximately 9:30 p.m. According to State Bomb and Arson investigators, the children were not victims of the fire and their whereabouts are unknown at this time.

Two children initially believed to have perished in a Tennessee farmhouse fire along with their step-grandparents are now considered missing and perhaps in danger, investigators said on Wednesday.
TBI spokeswoman Kristin Helm said the district attorney asked the agency to investigate the fatal fire and the whereabouts of the children. She said there is no evidence yet that the children were not in the house, but investigators are speaking with family members, friends and people at the children’s school.
‘‘Under an abundance of caution we decided to issue an endangered child alert for the two children if they are not in fact found in the fire,’’ Helm said.
The State Fire Marshal’s Office said in a statement that it has concluded ‘‘that there are no remains of the two children in the structure. The children’s location at this time is unknown.’’
Helm said the TBI issued the endangered alert because, ‘‘as time moves on, we don’t want to miss our opportunity to locate them if they were not in the house.’’
The Bedford County sheriff said investigators did find the remains of 72-year-old Leon ‘‘Bubba’’ McClaran and his 70-year-old wife, Molli McClaran.
Helm confirmed that the remains of two people and an animal were recovered in the house, but she said the medical examiner would have to positively identify those remains.
Sheriff Randall Boyce originally said Monday that investigators thought they found three bodies in the home, but one of the remains turned out to be those of a dog.
Family members told The Associated Press that the McClarans were raising their step-grandchildren because they needed a home and described them as generous people who loved their family. Relatives of the McClarans said the girl also used the last name Pope.
Someone passing by the farm saw the home enveloped in flames and called for help.
Law enforcement agents used cadaver dogs to search through the rubble for the remaining bodies. Family members drew a layout of the home for authorities to show the bedrooms.
The fire was very intense and quickly collapsed the walls of the house. Firefighters spent hours battling the blaze and it was still smoldering Monday morning as they searched for the bodies.
Helm said TBI is not investigating the cause of the fire because that is the responsibility of the state fire marshal’s office.

Missing From Picuayne, Mississippi Since September 17, 2012 Please Help Find Brailynne Corr
Brailynne Corr graduated from Ridgeview High in 2008, recently graduated from UCF and is now missing from Mississippi.
She went to live with her parents in Mississippi and started a job a month ago at a hospital in Jackson. She's been missing now for 10 days.
One Jacksonville family who has known her since childhood is trying to help find her from their home here on the First Coast.
Lou Anne McCormick has spent hours on Facebook of late, trying to spread the word about Corr.
Brailynne and her daughter Mallory were friends throughout elementary and junior high in Orange Park. They continued to keep in touch.
"I can't imagine what she is going through right now, my daughter's friend, I just want to help the family," said McCormick.
McCormick has been in touch with Corr's father in Mississippi, Dave Corr.
"He is just distraught, driving on the roads of Mississippi looking for her."
Corr told First Coast news that he has gone to several places in Mississippi where his daughter was known to be, but he has had no luck finding her.
McCormick convinced him to open an account at Regions Bank in Brandon, Mississippi. She wants to raise money through Facebook to help the family hire a private investigator.
"I thought what would I do, I would hire someone besides local police to help me find my daughter, that's how I'd go about it."
Corr told her parents she was going to Hattiesburg, Mississippi on September 15th to visit friends. While she did go to Hattiesburg, she did not visit anyone.
She was last seen two days later on the 17th at a Walmart in Picuayne, Miss., 3 hours away.
"She'd gone to Walmart, gone in bought gum, then bought gas and went inside again to get bottled water," said McCormick.
That was 10 days ago.
No signs of her since, no evidence of using her credit card.
"A really good girl about checking in with Mom and Dad constantly, totally out of character for her," McCormick remarked.
She and her daughter, Mallory Williams, plan to pass out posters in the Orange Park area in hopes of getting some clues to Corr's whereabouts.
"If we put out the posters and she did communicate with someone in the Orange Park area, anyone prior to going missing, they may have some idea where she might be."
Her father asks that if anyone happens to see her in the area, to stop her and call authorities, likewise if they happen to hear from Corr.
Brandon Rogers is a UNF student who dated Corr for several years. He has started the Facebook page "Find Brailynne"
He's concerned also, saying this is not like her, describing her as a very smart girl, graduating with a degree in molecular science and microbiology.
Detective Chris Ainsworth in Mississippi said she is on the National Missing Persons List, but at this point he has no solid reason to suspect foul play.
Please share her flyer with your friends. A online flyer is a excellent way to get the word out about a Missing Person.
