Mary Boyd married William Reed in 1785
My g-g-g-grandfather, William Reed married Mary Boyd, June 14, 1785 in St. Michael,s Church, Cumberland Co. Pa.It gives the name of her stepfather as Brannen. I have never been able to find out anything about her family.She was said to have had a sister, Millie, and a brother Alexander.
She was a real frontier wife, living on the West Branch of the Susquehanna River and finally settleing with her husband in Crawford Co. Pa. She died October 14, 1853 and is buried in Wilson Cemetery, Espyville, Crawford Co. Pa.I have pictures of hers and William's grave as well as their
marriage license.I would like to find out more about her
and where she actually came from.Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Arlene Reed Adkins
