The following FTM report on the descendants
of James W. and Lucretia Charlotte Dillard Reid
was generated on October 29, 1999, by Philip
Underwood-Sheppard. I am nowhere near having
the complete record of James' descendants. I've
included only three generations in
an effort to leave out folks who are, or may
still be, living. At the posting of this
report, I have just heard from another cousin
of Reid descent! Genealogy: the hobby that
beats the Energizer Bunny!
A note about veracity of the
records and the sources: As with all published
genealogy, mistakes will creep in. I have noted
in the endnotes either documents or individuals
where the information was obtained. Living so
far from Transylvania County makes it difficult
to do original research among documents, but
even documents can be "doctored," say one thing
when another was happening. I've tried my best
and am completely open to the correction of my
data. Dates without endnotes can be attributed
to the location of the burial site or my
failure to document the source. If it is a
cemetery record, the cemetery will be listed,
usually without an endnote.
