De Clare Guestbook Entries! Go Directly to the Surname Research Page: De Clare John Reed Austin Thu Apr 21 18:43:15 2005 My email is: johnreedaustinsax@yahoo.com Did you like my site?: OK The pages of your site that I liked best were: Native American My age is: 40 - 49 I found your page by: Search Engine My comments include: I am compiling a family history for my immediate family and would like to see what is available. I first began researching the DeClares when I stumbled upon them on rootsweb. It began with the Reed line until eventually continuing from the DeClares all the way to Abraham! I found the research mostly from a contributer named Florent Coache who had quite a bit of detailed history on many of the ancestors sourced from reliable documentations inserted with the genealogical finds. The only thing missing is paintings or pictures of the faces of these individuals. I was hoping to view them on your site. Also, there is a legend that there was Blackfeet or possibly Cherokee in my family that goes back to John Reed b. 1702, who fought in the Rev. War. He later became an early settler of Minnesota. To this day, the place he resided still believes the familly was somehow connected with the Blackfeet, but so far, I have found nothing to support that theory. That is why I found your "Native American" page intriiguing. Perhaps you have more to share that could guide me in the right direction.JRA John McEwen Fri Aug 15 12:30:10 2003 My email is: johnmcewen1954@yahoo.ca Did you like my site?: Most Definitely The pages of your site that I liked best were: Genealogy My age is: 40 - 49 I found your page by: Just stumbled in My comments include: Jaime,You have really researched the de Clare`s genealogy and the de Spencer lines.
