REED
My great-great uncle, Benjamin WASHINGTON was born January 30, 1882 in Pueblo, Colorado. His parents were Rachel REED and Willis WASHINGTON. I am in search of a connection to his maternal grandparents and any living descendants. His mother Rachel REED was born May 26, 1849 in either Clinton County Missouri or Kentucky. She was the daughter of James REED and Harriett MOORE. James and Harriett migrated to Colorado by way of the Trail of Tears. I would very much like to unite with family members, so my 85 year old grandmother can get to know this side of our family. If you can help, please email me. I would love to hear from anyone with information. You can find more on my families as well as links to other researchers at http://www.debdavis.org/
I am trying to find information on gr-gr-gr grandparents and descendents. James Reed and Harriet Moore Reed were last heard of on The Trail of Tears near Grand Chain, Illinois (Pulaski County) where they left my gr-gr grandmother Rachel Reed Washington to be cared for by another family. I found Rachel living in Grand Chain, Pulaski County, Illinois in the household of Wesley and Nancy Webb.
I was told by my gr-aunt that Grandma Rachel’s family lived in Denver, Colorado. According to the obituary of My great-great uncle, Benjamin WASHINGTON, he was born January 30, 1882 in Pueblo, Colorado. His parents were Rachel REED and Willis WASHINGTON. I am in search of a connection to my gr-gr-gr maternal grandparents and any living descendants based upon these clues. I believe Rachel was possibly visiting her parents when she gave birth to Ben.
Rachel REED was born May 26, 1849 in either Clinton County Missouri or Kentucky. She was the daughter of James REED and Harriett MOORE. James and Harriett migrated to Colorado by way of the Trail of Tears.

McCLELLAND (married name) was found in the 1880 Pulaski County Illinois census born 1847 in Tennessee. However both her parents were listed as born in Kentucky. Her husband was Richard McClelland born 1839 in Tennessee. Other conflicting information showed her name may have been SALLIE RUTLEDGE. She was listed as mulatto.
