Looking for info about Morgan's Raid in Ripley Co., particularly about any Slaughter or Reeds who were there. Barnet Reed was a bushwhacker during the Civil War, James and Green Slaughter joined the Union Army. Reed and Slaughters left Garrard Co. KY and turned up in Ripley in 1860s possibly to escape a murder charge. Barnet & Rhoda Reed later setteled in Dearborn Co. IN and Boone Co. KY. Barnet changed his name to David Manuel Reed in KY.
Thanks for any info!
