I have a death date of 1875.If you look at the 1850 US Federal Census Ohio, Auburn Twp. Fairfield Co., you will find Silas Reedy/Redy, (Rebecca, Jonathon, Elizabeth) page 2.Above that is Barbara Leffler(age 52), Jonathan Leffler (age 55) and Eli Heidlebaugh (age 8).There must be a connect somewhere.If you look at the 1840 Census for Auburn, Fairfield Co., you will see a Susannah Reedy (age 40-49) with five children (one male child between 10-14).Silas would have been around 13 years old at the time of this census.I want to hedge my bet that Susannah was his mother.Silas names a daughter Susan/nah and I have a record that a Susannah Reedy in Fairfield Co, married a Solomon Fautz June 21, 1849.Silas names a child "Solomon".Do you have any information that I'm on the right track with this?Take a look and let me know what you think.I'm about 1-1/2 to 2 hours from Lancaster and very tempted to see what courthouse records I can find.Yours, Cynthia
