Rear hub bearings

I was overhauling my rear hub on a mt bike and couldn't get the freewheel off even though I have the correct tool. But here is the problem I cleaned it all out and regreased and installed bearings in the races. But on the drive side there are 2 races. I calipered it and felt pretty sure the inner race was the correct one for the bearings, based on where the hub should start. I couldn't check where they were originally because they fell out when I was working on removing the freewheel. So is this correct or should they be in the outermost race? I never saw one with 2 races before (that is 2 on the drive side) in addition to the nondrive side. This is probably a totally moronic question but I want to be sure I did it correctly. Here are pictures of the FW
