In the 1870 US Census for Alabama Township, Genesee Co, NY there is a Sherman Reed age 40 with his family, Mary, Elmer and Boren?. They live on a farm and have listed with them a few farm hands and servants. One servant is Fred Lehman age 19 from Germany. I am trying to find out more about Fred and Sherman. My GGGrandfather is Fred Lehman (I am not certain if this is the correct one though). Oddly, when Fred married in 1880, his wife's name was Luretta Reed! However I have found her father's name as Bloomfied. Does anyone know if there may be a connection between Sherman and Bloomfield? Thanks
