Looking to find a connection between my ggrandfather William Riley Reed b. Dec. 17, 1856 in Randolph Co. In. His middle name I am hoping is a family name from his mother so I am hoping to find out if his parents were William Reed who married Minerva Riley, Jan. 19 1849 in Orange County, In. I have William Reed and Minerva living in Orange County in 1850. Would like to know if anyone can help me check 1860 Orange or Randolph Counties to see if they are there with William Riley. Also it is a possiability they were in Kansas or Missouri at some point. My William Riley Reed I think married at the age of 21 to unknown, and they had a daughter Gineva D. who was born in Missouri in 1883. But then William Riley married Mary Ellen Hayward in Bates County, Butler Mo. in 1886 and they had eight children all born between Mo. and Kansas, from 1887 till 1908. In Orange county In. in the year 1839 there was also a Rebbeca Reed who married Alonzo F. Riley. Could they be related? Could someone check 1830 census for a brother and sister, william and Rebecca? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Barbara __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free, easy-to-use web site design software http://sitebuilder.yahoo.com
