Hello Bootzy,
Many thanks for all the information, with what I already had & what Ellie said tells me I have the correct Robert Reed, then going to Find A Grave gave me even more info on Roberts siblings, he had a sister Cornelia who I would presume was named after his wife's Father so all in all you have led me down the right track
