[family members have Mr. Reddin listed as Addison Bailey, but I thought I'd send as found in a newspaper article. Would the son, Burrell C. Reddin happen to be Merle, the steele guitar player?]] Rev. A. D. Reddin of Banks, one of Bradley County's best-known men, died in a hospital at Jackson, Miss., early Tuesday as a result of injuries he suffered Monday night in an automobile wreck at Jackson. He had been a minister for about 40 years. Survivors include his wife, Mrs. Bessie Lorene Briley Reddin; 10 sons, Burrell C. Reddin of Banks, Harold Reddin of Franklin, La., Harvey Reddin of Fordyce, Randolph Reddin of Danville, Rev. T. W. Reddin of Little Rock, Douglas Reddin of Barksdale Air Force Base at Shreveport, La., Lyrod Reddin of San Diego, Cal., Martin Reddin of Jackson and Briley Reddin and James B. Reddin, both of Cullendale (Ouachita County); four daughters, Mrs. M. C. Weeks of El Dorado, Mrs. V. M. Pritchard of Shreveport, La, Mrs. H. Johns of Banks, and Mrs. Charles F. Douglas of Jackson; two brothers, T. A. Reddin of Pine Bluff and L. D. Reddin Sr. of North Little Rock; two sisters, Mrs. Joe Fowler of Banks and Mrs. E. C.
