Description:
I received the following in an e-mail from John 2 January 1999
While looking for information about my great grandparents, I found your web page and read the e-mail source from M. Palmer. I am somewhat confused at what I found, so maybe someone can help clear it up for me. I am the son of Elmer L. Reed, son of Ira M. Reed, who was the son of Phillip Walker Reed & Frances (Fannie) Elizabeth Palmer. The family tree that I have shows that Frances Palmer is the "daughter" (my great grandmother) of Joshua Palmer & Zilla Ann (M. Haltom). I didn't have the last name of Zilla before now. Your web page has Frances Palmer as the "son" of Joshua Palmer. This is of course not correct. My tree says that Frances was born in Owen County, Indiana in Sept. 5, 1849 (not 1850) and died in Sullivan County Mo. in July 13, 1922. I of course am wanting to get in touch any of my family that is willing to converse about our family history. I have information on the Palmer side of my family going back to England to 1633, and branching off to other grandparents back to 1570. My 11th great grandparents. I found several things on this page that is not correct or perhaps all my information is not correct. I believe what I have to be right because I have so much of it. However I would really like to know as I am still building my family tree. I have pictures of Frances E. Palmer as a young, middle age, and older woman.
