    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/GNE.2ACEB/26 Message Board Post: Time to take another shot at my Blakslee connection. I'm looking for information about the family of Sarah Chapman Blakslee, b. Sept. 27, 1828 in New Lisbon, NY, m. Egbert Garfield Reed, August 18, 1857, d. Jan 24, 1918 in Binghamton, NY. I have viewed her grave in Glen Dyberry Cemetery, Honesdale, PA. Honesdale, Wayne County, PA. is where she and her husband lived prior to moving to NY to live with their daughter because of advanced age. Also found in the Reed family plot at Glen Dyberry is Elizabeth L. Blakslee, b. Nov. 21, 1825, d. May 2, 1887. There are many versions of the Blakslee name. I try to view all, but concentrate on Blakslee, Blakeslee, and Blakesley. Others may apply and I would be gratified to learn more of Sarah's family. Since my Reed's came from Fairfield/Litchfield Counties in CT (Egbert was born in Salisbury) around this time, it's very possible, and likely, that Sarah's family was also from there. Thank you Ed Reed
