Posted on: Edgar Co., IL Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Il/Edgar/531 Surname: REEDS, BOLES, JUSTIS, SHEPHERD, ROSS, RYMER, FARLEY ------------------------- My Thomas Jefferson Reed was married to Matilda (Mattie) Boles from KY or IN. Will keep my eyes peeled for a connection. So far I have only the one spelling of surname REED used by the family in IL.
