[Brian Reeder]

Hi
I am new to the group and have just noticed that somebody has been trying to research my family surname in Wells next the sea in Norfolk.

I have a great deal of information including births deaths and marriages recorded along with maps of properties owned and wills to prove the Reeder family owned.

I have concentrating on a one named research and i have been successful in getting back to 1629
in Wells next the sea area of Norfolk.

Welcome to the forum Brian.
The member researching the Reeder family is a regular. Hopefully, they will be back online soon and you will be able to get together and compare notes.

Isn't it exciting when this happens?

Good Luck

Hi Brian, I am hoping that I am the member you are offering to help.
Briefly my g.grandfather William Cotton b1844 married in 1865 to Hannah Reeder b1850 Hoxton. She was the daughter of Richard Reeder born Grimston c1806 (married to Eliza Wheatley 1827), a blacksmith. I know little of Richard, I think he had a brother John b1799. I believe Richard is the son of Mary Sadler and Thomas Reeder b1761, Thomas being the son of Theopilus Reeder b1723 and Elizabeth Herdy. Theopilus, the son of Robert Reeder b1688 and Elizabeth Gleade (Glede). This is point where I have come to a halt.
I would be so interested to hear if the line that I have traced fits in with your research of the Reeder name in Wells.
