KY. They had a connection to the Coles (Hezikiah and Nancy Cole) Cole-Evans feud. A Cy Boldry gave a statement for a CW pension, so I think they must have been close to him. They encountered John Hunt Morgan and his men on the ride through. There is a family story about that encounter. When they show up again in Boone Co. Ky, Barnet goes by the name of David Manuel Reed.

One place you might start is the Niedersachsen (aka Lower Saxony in English) state archives. Niedersachsen covers much of what used to be the Kingdom of Hanover in the 19th century. Their emigration records are online (in German so use the Google web page translator) at http://www.aidaonline.niedersachsen.de/default.htm The search engine located there will search eight of the regional archives. I used it quite successfully to find my HILLE family's emigration record a couple years ago. Partial names are allowed; it just brings back many more possibilities. I use the partial name feature at times to find which spellings of a surname are more frequent. Typically only the senior person of the family-group is listed in the archives, so if your Reeka was a child or wife when she emigrated, her name would not be listed, only that of her father or husband. If your family was from the Osnabruck region, as mine was, there is also a book available on the mass emigration of landless peasant farmers from this region to the central USA in the 1830-1900 timeframe. See http://www.venne-families.de/ for more information. Good Hunting! Contact me directly if you have questions.

Family history says that she is the daughter of David Gray of Ireland who is buried in Franklin Co., In. I have no proof. Also said is that she married John Dickerson. Her daughter is Samantha Gray Dickerson (married to John Palmer.) Elizabeth appears in the 1850 census in Ripley County as Elizabeth Gray with Samantha, Juliane and David Gray. She is also in the 1860 and 1870 census as Elizabeth Gray. Julie Ann appears in both with younger children. It is unknown if they are hers or her mothers. In none of the census does an older man appear who would be in a husband or father's position. I have seen the name Roland Gray associated with Julie Ann, but no proof. Andrew and Irville Gray appear in the 1870 census as teens and pre teens. I have found them in subsequent Ripley census. If anyone in Ripley County has knowledge of any of these people I sure hope you can help me. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

M.D., J.H. Colton, New York, 1852 http://www.historic-atlas-series.com/1852_IN_index.html This is a digitally reproduced version of Indiana: in Relation to its Geography, Statistics, Institutions, County Topography Etc.; with a Reference Index to Colton's Maps of Indiana, 1852. Historians, genealogists and researchers of mid 19th century Indiana will find the vast amount of research material in this book and its accompanying maps invaluable. The 144 page book is a companion to the 6 segment series of Colton's Maps of Indiana included on this CD. The book contains topographical and historical profiles of the cities, towns and villages of Indiana in 1852. Indiana places and place names, many of which no longer exist in contemporary literature or on current maps, are identified and discussed in this early Indiana resource. Excerpts from the book advertisement: This little book has been prepared to accompany COLTON'S MAPS OF THE STATE OF INDIANA, and to illustrate the geography, statistics, and institutions of that important portion of the American Union. The descriptions, though brief and concise, embrace nevertheless a great mass of information useful not only to the immigrant settler, but also to those who, from long residence in the state, may be entitled to the distinguished title of "citizen." The descriptive portions of the work have been chiefly compiled from the publications of the most recent writers; but a large mass of information has also been derived from the labors and inquiries of the publisher's agents, and from numerous private sources, all of which has been incorporated. The statistical matter is chiefly based on the census of 1850, the official returns of the several departments of the federal and state governments, and from the reports of companies incorporated within the state. Every available source of accurate information, indeed, has been consulted, and the publisher has no hesitation in saying that there is no other work on the same subject, and within the same compass, that furnishes so much valuable information as is contained herein... ...maps are engraved in the best style of art, and are colored in a handsome manner. A REFERENCE INDEX, by the aid of which any place on the maps may be readily found, is appended to this work. New York, April 15, 1852 Table of Contents (40K PDF) pages are available for download: http://www.historic-atlas-series.com/1852_IN_TOC.pdf Colton's Maps of Indiana: The original full size map was engraved on six plates, and when assembled was 66 x 48-inches in size. It contains the full surveys in sections, the general topography of the state, the internal improvements, and all the information usually found on the most elaborate maps. Insets: Michigan City * LaFayette * Logansport & West Logan * Terre Haute * Indianapolis * Madison* Fort Wayne * New Albany * Jeffersonville, Louisville and the Falls of the Ohio * Evansville and Lamasco City * Lawrenceburgh * Vincennes * Richmond * South Bend. To facilitate viewing and printing, this series of maps have been digitized in a single image and reduced in size to approximately 33 x 24-inches at 300 dpi. The high resolution image has been converted to Adobe PDF and included on this CD. The REFERENCE INDEX pages (105-123) may be utilized to locate Indiana places and place names found on Colton's Maps of Indiana.

Each Zone consists of a series of 8 or more bordering county maps making up all 92 Indiana counties. Each Zone Atlas contains high resolution scanned images of vintage 19th century county maps that are presented in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF). All (11) individual Indiana Zones are available separately. Each county map includes the following 19th century features: * roads, railroads and canals * cities, towns and villages * post offices and government sites * one-room schoolhouses, churches and cemeteries * rivers, streams and ferries * racetracks, fairgrounds and picnic groves * industrial sites, furnaces and mills * early homesteads and farms -and much more The Historic Atlas of Indiana series may be an invaluable aid to Genealogists, Historians and researchers in search of 19th century Indiana places and place names. Many 19th century sites no longer appear on contemporary maps and or have been obscured with time. The Historic Atlas Series CD's provide researchers with the means to quickly search 19th century maps when searching for extinct Indiana places. Details on early maps are often difficult to read and these are no exception; however, by virtue of the Adobe PDF formatting, these documents may be inspected at high levels of magnification without additional digital distortion; something that simply cannot be accomplished with paper reproductions and photocopies. ------------------------------------------------------------------ The Adobe Acrobat Reader is needed to view, zoom, pan and print from the PDF images contained in this book; and is included free on each CD. No other software is necessary. The data has been created and configured using Adobe Acrobat for MS Windows (98, 98SE, XP, NT and 2000). The pages may be viewed in earlier versions of the software as well; and with current versions of the Adobe Reader on recent model Mac systems. Good luck with your research!
