The information that I have however is this: John Reid married Lucinda Cave(s)- they had the following children who were listed with Lucinda in the 1850 Clarke Co Census: George Washington Elizabeth (Betty) Carolina Jane Through other sources that I cannot prove: the names James and Nancy have come up as children of John and Lucinda- and now you mention a Margaret.. It seems that we are talking about the same family- any information that you have would be helpful- and I would be glad to help you in any way that I can.. I am a descendent through George Washington Reid- whos son John William Reid was my gggrandfather... Thank you, Laura Whittington
