Research Notes:

There were other men named Robert Reed, whose notes are gathered below. Some of the notes below perhaps refer to Robert Reed, son of Nelson Reed, whose notes are above.

These notes refer to Robert Reed and his wife Margaret both of Augusta County, Virginia and some heirs of Robert. The heirs were from Ireland and included another Robert Reed. We have not yet found any relationship of this Robert Reed to the family of Nelson Reed.

1767 Robert Reed, tavernkeeper of Staunton, purchased 2 tracts from William Fleming and wife Ann, all of Augusta County, Virginia on August 18. This deed is recorded in the Court Orders book, just before the entries dated 1787 and 1789, below, so perhaps this property is related to those proceedings. [54] [55]

1782 Robert Reed was taxed in Augusta County, Virginia. [56]

1787 Robert Reed, a foreigner, took the oath of allegiance in the Augusta County court on November 21. [57]

1789 Robert Reed late of the County of Augusta had died intestate without issue, leaving Margaret Reed his widow & relict. An alien [from Ireland] was represented as the heir at law of Robert Reed. A court considered the disposition of his estate in a dispute between plaintiffs Robert Reid, Collin Reid, Hugh Balllendine and Frances his wife versus defendant Margaret Reed. [58] [59] [60]
Testimony supporting the plaintiffs reported the following:

James Donnely gave a deposition in Greenbrier County. He stated that he knew John Reed and Robert Reed when they were of Billigay, County of Donnegal, Ireland. Robert Reed came to Staunton, Augusta County, Virginia, America. Robert and John Reed were full accounted brothers in Ireland. John Reed was the father of John Reed and Robert Reed. Father John also had two daughters and two sons by a second wife. John Reed was the younger brother of Robert. John lived with a woman named Frances, but they were mot legally married. John and Frances had a son Robert, legally begotten. Some of the half brothers and sisters of Robert and John also had legally begotten children.

James Donnely gave a deposition in the district court of Staunton. He stated that he had known Robert Reed deceased of Staunton before he left Ireland. He also knew John Reed, father of Robert. John's first wife died before he (James Donnely) left Ireland in 1761. Old John Reed had married another wife. He (James Donnely) knew John Reed, the father of Robert & Coleen Reed & Frances Ballantine wife of the said Hugh the present plaintiffs. Hugh Ballantine owned land in Greenbrier and was a citizen of Virginia before the decease of Robert Reed of Staunton.

1792 The inheritance of the estate was described in much more detail in a subsequent court order. [61]

Mrs Reed while a widow became the second wife of Colonel George Mathews, from whom she divorced. She lived on the south side of Beverly Street, between Augusta and Water Streets. [62]

After the death of his first wife, Governor Mathews married Mrs. Margaret Reed, of Staunton. They were, however, divorced, and she resumed her former name. [63]

Margaret Cunningham was born in or a little before, 1747, having been baptized by the Rev John Craig in that year. Nothing is known of her early life, except that according to tradition on one occasion of an alarm about Indians she mounted a horse, and, doubtless with others, fled across the Blue Ridge. After attaining womanhood, she became the wife of Robert Reed, at what date is not known, but it was after 1765. Mr Reed was the son of John Reed of the Kingdom of Ireland, as he is described in the papers of an old suit, to be mentioned. Like many other residents of Staunton in his day, he was a tavern keeper. He was also the owner of 740 acres of land adjoining the town and a house and lot in town. In the evening of the first Sunday in December 1775 the young preacher McMillan rode from the Stone church to town with Mrs Reed and lodged at her house. Mr Reed died in October 1787 intestate and without issue. Having no heirs at law capable of inheriting his real estate it escheated to the Commonwealth subject to the widow's dower interest, but in 1789, the Legislature passed an act granting the property to Mrs Reed. Mr Reed however had a brother John and two half sisters, Mrs William Reed and Mrs William Buchanan, and the descendants of one or more of these relatives after Mrs Reed's second marriage instituted proceedings to obtain the property but did not succeed. [64]

1793 Isabella Walker, orphan of Alex Walker, deceased, married Robert Reed. [65]

1798 Collin Reed, son of one of the heirs at law of John reed, deceased, orator. John and Robert Reed, formerly of Augusta, were brothers and now deceased. Robert died intestate, 178-, without direct heirs. Collin is next of kin (half-blood) to Robert. Suit versus Margaret Reed, now Margaret Mathews, widow and relict of said Robert. [66]

1806 Robert Reed, Caton Reed, Hugh Ballantine and Frances, his wife, heirs of Robert Reed, versus Margaret Reed, widow of Robert, who has married George Mathews. Suit for accounting took testimony in Fayette County, Kentucky. [67]

1805 A newspaper article gave details about this case as an example of legal precedent. [68]

The notes below refer to Robert and Barbara Reed and son Alexander. Robert Reed, noted below, purchased land in 1769, so he is older than Robert Reed, son of Nelson Reed. We have not yet found any relationship of this Robert Reed to the family of Robert Reed, son of Nelson Reed.

1769 On 31 June, Robert Reed was granted 190 acres, Middle River of the Shenandoah. [69]
