Thanks to all who caught my inquiry. Have been a little lazy with the Rebecca portion of my tree recently. Been digging at my wife's Scots roots, and only monitoring some other rootsweb sites. Thanks for stimulating a modest change in focus. Rebecca Reed b. 1811/13 in Vermont - parents b. in Vermont Russell Carpenter b. abt 1804 in NY - parents b. RI married in NY sometime before my ggrandfather was born in 1829, and were living at that time in Hermon, St. Lawrence County, NY That's where I am right now, and Janice - thanks - I'll have to see if there is a Monkton connection. Mac Carpenter Victoria, BC - and Joanne - thanks - we love Portland, but we haven't gotten to Salem! > Subject: > Re: [REED] Livcus Reed > From: > "Joanne Mack" <wrmjam@msn.com> > Date: > Tue, 28 Feb 2006 17:43:30 -0800 > To: > REED-L@rootsweb.com > > To: > REED-L@rootsweb.com > > >Hi Mac, >Thank you for the response. Afraid I haven't any information on Livcus ,other than what I listed. No idea who his parents or siblings were. As he married into the family the earlier Burroughs genealogist only listed his name as the spouse of Lodoiska. I did find from their marriage record that he was " from Monkton". >Where in Vermont was your GGGgrandmother born? Did she live in the area? Unfortunately we're working in a time fame where the census doesn't list anyone except the head of household so we can't see if Rebecca & Livcus connect. >I'll keep my open for Rebecca & if anything looks interesting I'll let you know. > Joanne, Salem, Oregon.....BTW.. .LOVE you city! > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Subject: > Re: Re: [REED] Livcus Reed > From: > <pete.lodge@xtra.co.nz> > Date: > Wed, 1 Mar 2006 15:37:42 +1300 > To: > REED-L@rootsweb.com > > To: > REED-L@rootsweb.com > > >Hi, > >I'm not connected to these lines but found the following which might be of interest to someone out there. > >All from US Census; > >1850 Bloomingdale Dupage Co., Illinois >Levens Reed 42 VT >Lodoisha 41 VT >Levens 16 VT >Milo 14 VT >Louisa 5 Ill > >1860 Bloomingdale Dupage Co Illinois >Lodoiska Reed 49 VT >Livius 26 VT >Louisa 15 Ill >(No Livcus snr in 1860 - died in Bloomingdale?) > >As far as possible parents for Livcus Reed born 1808 in Vermont - the 1810, 1820, 1830 and 1840 census for Monkton, Addison Co Vermont all have a Jedediah Reed living at Monkton VT. > >Something to followup with? >Janice > > > > Subject: > Rebecca Reed born VT 1811/13 > From: > <pete.lodge@xtra.co.nz> > Date: > Wed, 1 Mar 2006 15:45:03 +1300 > To: > REED-L@rootsweb.com > > To: > REED-L@rootsweb.com > > >Mac > >What else do you know about your Rebecca Reed - who did she marry? > >Janice > >
