Falcon, Nevada/Columbia AK>Cooper, Delta, Texas. Martin Luther/James and Nancy
Please help me!I am so confused :).I am looking for any info anyone might have about Reid's in above locations.Martin Luther, a mill wright, b. 1806 married Nancy (believed to be either Sinclair or Herring), appears on 1870 census for Falcon AK, children James E., Cora Ell, and Robert R.Possibly John.1880 census family is in Delta Texas.James is several decades older than Nancy b. 1851.Cora m. Joseph Bell and had 7 children.James married Amanda Gaddy, Robert R unknown.Family rumor is that either Nancy's husband or James E killed a slave and had to hide out in Texas.family also rumored to be Cherokee descent.I believe Nancy was married before to a James M. Reid d. 1860, then remarried Martin Luther, or Martin Luther and James are the same person and he changed his name and birthdate.This has been my brick wall for some time....if you recognize any of this info please clarify for me!Thanks!
