My great-great aunt, Elizabeth McWilliams, married Stephen Reed. Elizabeth died in 1852, and Stephen may have married again, unsure at this time. We are guessing that Stephen and Elizabeth had 2 sons, Albert and Abner, possibly twins. We have found these twins living with John and Christina McWilliams, Elizabeth's sister and brother-in-law I believe in the 1860 census. Please if you find any mention of Stephen and Elizabeth, please let me know.
