After his death the family moved to Flat Creek, Marshall Co., TN. We are looking for the ancestors of JOHN and LAVINIA as well as CALEB. We also need information on a LEANDER REED (1740-50 d. after 1830) who lived in Muary Co.,TN. > > I believe we are a part of the greater REED/REID exodus from York and Lancaster Counties, PA about 1752-1755. I further believe we are linked to the widely travelled HUGH REED of Rowan Co., NC, Ogelthorpe Co., GA, and Logan Co., KY. Any help is greatly appreciated. We are trying to sort this out for a "gathering" in the year 2000. Please circulate widely. Thank you. > > Brian C.
