Hello Patty, I'm trying to connect your REDDEN's to my Dickson/Gibson County REDDEN's. I believe a connection is there. Perhaps others on the list know something of this family as well. A possible connection is: Descendants of Isaac Reddin/Redden 1 Isaac Reddin Abt. 1792 - 1875 .. +Martha Jane McCrackin Abt. 1799 - ......... 2 George Calvin Reddin ......... 2 Hays Wesley Reddin ......... 2 James Reddin ......... 2 *John Wiley Reddin, b. Bef. 1850 (Here is the possible connection) ......... 2 Julia Reddin ......... 2 Reddick Reddin ......... 2 Rosie Reddin ......... 2 Sidney E. Reddin ......... 2 Mary J. Reddin 1833 - ......... 2 William E. Reddin 1834 - Abt. 1864 ............. +Haley 1836 - Abt. 1885 .................... 3 Alex Reddin 1852 - 1879 .................... 3 James Alfred Reddin 1854 - Bef. 1880 .................... 3 Nancy Adeline Reddin 1857 - 1918 .................... 3 Sarah Jane Reddin 1858 - 1884 .................... 3 John Wiley Reddin 1860 - 1901 .................... 3 Sabra Reddin Abt. 1862 ........................ +Unknown Akin ......... 2 Sabra 1836 - *2nd Wife of Isaac Reddin: .. +Sarah Parrott ......... 2 William Pierce Reddin ......... 2 Cynthia Reddin ......... 2 Pency Ann Reddin ......... 2 Sarah E. Reddin He fits your John Wiley REDDEN, and as you can see, we have several John Wiley REDDEN's in the family. Also lots of pairs of twins with rhyming names (Gina/Tina; Sherry/Terri) :) Shelley Patti Mendelson wrote: > > O'siyo, I just recently came into some info that may or may not ring > someone's bell.
