Searching for Parents of Cynthia Reed
Tony -- I have that book by Forest F. Reed.
Do you have access to the 1840 Itawamba County, Miss census? (I'm an invalid and cannot get to the library to look myself). I'd like to know how many females were in the John Reed and Jincy Coffee household in 1840. There is a large gap between George and Martin where Cynthia might be placed. After Eli Works passed away, my ggg-grandfather, James Franklin (Frank) Works sued his elder brother John for control of the Eli Works estate. The lawsuit just rambles on and on and at one point, it seems James Franklin testified that John had died. I know Cynthia went to DeKalb County, Ala--not sure if John did.
Kindest regards,
Ann
