    1. Re: [REED] Jeremiah B. Reed,
    2. My Jeremiah Reed's wife or wives were Wade (1st wife) and what happened to them is a mystery, and his (2nd. wife was Frances (Fannie) Hafley. They are buried in the McMahon Cemetery in Athens Tn next to a church where they are still using. I believe our Jeremiah Reed's are not of the same line as my Jeremiah Reed's father was Cornelius Reed. erw

    1. Re: [REED] Jeremiah Reed/TN
    2. Anna, did you ever know what the "B" stood for in Jeremiah's Reed's name? On any of the records I found I never saw him use a "B" in his name. But most of us use only our first name, I got most of my information from someone that called himself Jim Holcomb and then before that I found them in Athens Court House records. We also went out to the cemetery and their plot was all grown up and some of the stones around Fannie's were broken and laying on the ground. Fannie's was also laying on the ground in the middle of all the bushes and hers was the only one I could raise. Aren't you the one I sent the pictures and copies of the will of Jeremiah's to? I have sent so many to so many different ones that I never heard back from that I am now wondering why they never tell me they received them. If you want me to send them back I will be happy to. we

    1. Henry Reed will/Agnes Bell 1789 Guilford Co, North Carolina (NC)
    2. Karl & Cecy Rice
    3. Henry Reed in the will of 1789 Guilford County, North Carolina: This is my research. I'd sure like to find someone descended from Henry & Agnes (Bell) Reed. Cecy Rice Henry Reed b. in Ireland (source: "U.S. Biographical Dictionary of Missouri, 1878"); d. about August 1789 in Guilford Co. NC [source:will]) married Agnes BELL 26 Dec 1766 Rowan Co, NC (this from a marriage record; Guilford was formed from Rowan in 1771) Henry Reed names his wife as Agnes,1789, in his will. When Agnes died about 1800, a guardian, William DENNY, is appointed for Henry's orphans and minor children who are named as: James, John, Elizabeth, and Henry. I believe that the John named is my great great grandfather John Denny Reed born 1784 in Guilford Co, NC. John D. Reed named his children Henry, Thomas, James, John, Elizabeth, Menerva, Nancy and Martha. (I think Thomas is Agnes Bell Reed's father's name). One problem for me is, why didn't John Denny Reed name a child after his mother Agnes(if this is his mother). From a biography written by and about my great grandfather Thomas Black Reed in "U.S. Biographical Dictionary of Missouri, 1878" (edited by me), he names his father as John Denny Reed born in Guilford County, North Carolina, who fought in the 1812 War, who married Elizabeth Jenkins in Guilford County in 1816, came to Missouri in about 1819 to claim a military land grant he received for fighting in the 1812 War; and his grandfather as Henry Reed, who fought in the Revolutionary War in Guilford County, according to Thomas B. Reed, his grandson. Henry's name may have been spelled Reid or Read(John Denny Reed spelled it REED). Henry was born in Ireland, came to South Carolina but moved to Guilford County, North Carolina before the Revolutionary War. (all this in the biography).

    2. Karl & Cecy Rice
    3. Betty and others, Henry Reed in the will of 1789 Guilford County, North Carolina: This is my research. I'd sure like to find someone descended from Henry & Agnes (Bell) Reed. Cecy Rice Henry Reed b. in Ireland (source: "U.S. Biographical Dictionary of Missouri, 1878"); d. about August 1789 in Guilford Co. NC [source:will]) married Agnes BELL 26 Dec 1766 Rowan Co, NC (this from a marriage record; Guilford was formed from Rowan in 1771) Henry Reed names his wife as Agnes,1789, in his will. When Agnes died about 1800, a guardian, William DENNY, is appointed for Henry's orphans and minor children who are named as: James, John, Elizabeth, and Henry. I believe that the John named is my great great grandfather John Denny Reed born 1784 in Guilford Co, NC. John D. Reed named his children Henry, Thomas, James, John, Elizabeth, Menerva, Nancy and Martha. (I think Thomas is Agnes Bell Reed's father's name). One problem for me is, why didn't John Denny Reed name a child after his mother Agnes(if this is his mother). From a biography written by and about my great grandfather Thomas Black Reed in "U.S. Biographical Dictionary of Missouri, 1878" (edited by me), he names his father as John Denny Reed born in Guilford County, North Carolina, who fought in the 1812 War, who married Elizabeth Jenkins in Guilford County in 1816, came to Missouri in about 1819 to claim a military land grant he received for fighting in the 1812 War; and his grandfather as Henry Reed, who fought in the Revolutionary War in Guilford County, according to Thomas B. Reed, his grandson. Henry's name may have been spelled Reid or Read(John Denny Reed spelled it REED). Henry was born in Ireland, came to South Carolina but moved to Guilford County, North Carolina before the Revolutionary War. (all this in the biography).

    3. Does anyone know anything about the young JOHN REED of the will of Henry REED? I have a John Clement Reid/Reed whose son JESSE REID was born in 1803 in Wake Co., NC (Bible entry).
