In TX Rusk/Panola Counties, the Reeds and the Yates were neighbors. That means they lived about 5 to 15 miles apart in those days. Rev. Issac Reed had a daughter named Martha. See Panola County on www.GenWeb.com
Yates lived NE on the Trammel Trace( the main road into Nacogdoches from the North) John Tomlinson, father of Susan and Nancy Tomlinson, lived at Harmony Hill, Rusk, TX near the current site of Tatum, Rusk, TX. He had property on the trace and a few miles off. These Tomlinsons pronounced it Tom- LINSON. There were also a number of yet unattached Tomlinsons across Martin Creek from them.
