Wanting to find, Adam Reid(Reed), born January 1824,Bavaria, Germany his family before coming to America.Ships name Argo 1852 immigration. Think I seen something about Baden-baden Germany, but not 50% sure.

Also can not find his daughter Placicus born 1859, after 1860, isn't in any census. Family lived in Tiffin, Ohio.

Dora Shepard, and her husband Lester. I found out that Shepard is spelled many different ways. Can not find anything on Dora before her daughter Dora married Flyod Mills. I only know Dora' s daughter Dora passed away in the summer of 1974. Dora was married to Lester Shepard and a son Lester was born. Pretty sure the Shepards lived in Oberlin, Ohio. Most of the Mills are buried in Rochester station cemetery.

I found Adam Reed born Feb 17, 1824 Schuylkill Co. PA
Died Feb 13, 1900 Mount Pleasant, Schuylkill Co, PA
Buried in the Minersville Union Cemetery in Schuylkill Co. PA. Find a grave 83397799. This is the only Adam Reed that I found with the birth of 1824. Wife is Louisa sophia frantz Reed 1826-1903. Could not find the daughter Placicus born 1859. My guess is that the name was changed or it is misspelled in such a way that it could not be recognized. I did find a Dora Reed Mills Born 1900 Died 1978. buried in Summitt Cemetery Ingham Co. Michigan. find a grave memorial # 71460502
I am not sure if this is who you want but I also did find a Dora Shepard but there are over 50 of them and I did not have any dates of birth or death to go by. I think I found Lester Shepard but again I am not sure if this is who you are looking for. You can find him at find a grave # 163326829. On his Grave site it has that he was born in Budapest Capital Dist, Hungray. That may be where Adam came from, I don't know. But if you want me to try to find him in Hungary then I will try. But see if you can find more dates or places and maybe see how the daughter's name is spelled. I tried just putting in the P. and Reed as last name but what came up was not her. But I will be glad to see if Adam did come from Hungary just let me know. smith41
