Notes
The William Reed who married Lydia Langdon in Clay County in 1830, one of the Reeds marrying in Clay between 1822 and 1830 whom the research first reconstructed as James’s children. The master tree and the Reed addendum identify him, with a question mark, with the William Reid who bought part of a James Reed’s estate at its 1841 sale in Clay County (Attride compilation), along with “Mrs Reid” and Samuel Reid.

- A James Read consent in his 1830 marriage file would test him as James’s son.
