Would like to offer a slight correction to Amelia Rachel Hannah GENO Reed’s name. The name Geno was passed down to my mother as her middle name. Amelia was my maternal great grandmother. I have that picture as well.
How are you related to her, please?
I did not post this photo but just found it online. Amelia was my paternal great great grandmother. Edgar Reed was my father, Rufus Abram Reed grandfather, and John B Reed great grandfather. I would Like to contact you if possible so I can find out more about this branch of my family.
Patricia,
I sent Jean an email. I’ll let you know if I hear back from her. It’s been a long time.
Thank you so much! I’ve reached a dead end and can’t seem to locate any information on Amelia’s parents other than their names and places of birth. I’d appreciate any help I can get.
I do have more information on the Brannon line now. I didn’t have much when I commented on the picture above. If you’ll contact me, I’ll be happy to share.
Marilyn, if you send it to me through the contact page I would post it to this page and attribute you.
I would love for you to share this with me when you receive it. I’ve come to a dead end and would really appreciate any information I can get.
Hi, Patricia. I descend from the Brannons and the Reeds too. I have information to share, and I would love to communicate with you. I can tell you that the Brannon line came from County Laois in Ireland, but the Reed line is a brick wall for me.
