Surnames: Reed Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/EhB.2ACE/1131 Message Board Post: In an earlier query I listed Thomas Reed as having been shot in Texas, as had been quoted to me. However, an article disclosing the information listed James H. Reed as having been shot in Texas, and on his death bed 06 Aug. 1874 admitted to having been the leader of the gang that robbed the Iron Mountian train at Gads Hill in Wayne Co., Missouri, thus absolving the Jesse James gang. Any information reguarding James H. Reed would be greatly appreciated, he was supposed to be in the Somerville area.
