About Hood, Hogan, Reynolds, Wadsworth and more
I began researching my family tree after my best friend asked me to assist her with her genealogy. I'm particularly interested in tracing my two "brick wall" lines --- both my paternal and maternal grandfathers.
My paternal grandfather and his brothers, Frank, Shelly and John Law, were abandoned by their father Tom Law, around 1890 in Little Texas (Macon County) Alabama. I'm looking for any information on Frank or Tom Law. Frank served in the Spanish American War and contact was lost after that.
My maternal grandfather was Robert Albert Lee, born 1904 in South Carolina. His father was named Reuben H Lee (b. 1875) and his mother was Mary Nancy Wilcox (b. 1890), both born in South Carolina. Great-grandpa already had a family by another wife. Mary Nancy Wilcox is supposed to be 1/2 Cherokee and Reuben Lee's draft registration card has "Indian Citizen" checked so he may be as well. I cannot locate anything further back for either
of them.
Please be aware that I accepted some information published by a cousin of mine on our family without verifying any of it so you need to check everything for yourself.
If we're related, or you find information on someone you recognize, let me know.
