I'd be very grateful for information about REID related (particularly ancestors) to the following: Jesse Taylor Reid (white male b. Mar 6, 1830 Coweta Co, GA, d. 1925, Gonzales, TX; married Ellender Magdalene Hughes [b. 1831 Coweta GA] in Oct. 1851 in Tallapoosa Co, AL). He moved to AL with parents (mother at least) and siblings about 1840, I think. Fought with a TN regiment (Captain) in Civil War. Brought his own family to Gonzales Co, TX in 1867. Parents: John Reid (?) and a woman known as named Mary (who MAY be Polly/Polley Hutson/Hudson, who married a John Reid in Hancock Co., GA in 1808). Siblings (born abt 1813-1833 in GA): James G, John H, William H, Phillip P, Cornet G, Andrew B, Louisa, Mary Ann, Elizabeth, Abner L, George W. Jesse's children (born 1852-1875, in AL and TX): Charles Lafayette Reid, Frank Cheatham Reid, John Benjamin Lumpkin Reid, George W, Virginia A.I., Marietta Gertrude, Louisa Elizabeth, Alafair, Emaline, Ellender Magdalene, Albert Commodore, William H., Allice B. Grandchildren: A lot. I have many of them. Happy to supply names & trees to people who need them. Also interested in the South Carolina HUGHES family (Ellender Magdeline's ancestors), including Benajah/Benager (b. around 1800) and his father Benjamin (Revolutionary war veteran).
