Mike, Elizabeth's father was Abraham Guseman who was married 3 times. This first wife lived 9 days. His second wife was Mrs. Catherine Bernard. By his second wife he had the following children: Abraham, Joseph, Isaac, John and Sophia, Jacob. His third wife was Elizabeth Ralphsnyder and by his 3rd wife he had the following children: Mary, Catherine, Elizabeth who married James Reed, Sarah, Ann, Rebecca, William D., and Henry. I found this information in the book " A History of Preston County West Virginia" Volume 11 by J. R. Cole. I am looking for Elizabeth Guseman and James Reed's children. Also I am looking for John Harvey Reed's parents. If you or anyone has any knowledge about this family, please let me know. I will appreciate it.
