Redeford Preston

Birth	:	1825 Lawrence County, Kentucky, USA
Death	:	1895 Grafton, Chautauqua County, Kansas, USA
Burial	:	Saint Charles Cemetery, Grafton, Chautauqua County, USA
Coordinate	:	37.2206001, -96.1278000
Description	:	Redeford died circa 1895. He is last found in a newspaper article dated May 6, 1892, but he is not listed in the 1895 State and 1900 Federal Censuses. Redeford's forename at this point is a matter of conjecture. In all the documents it is found in a form of Redeford or Rethaford. Unfortunately it appears from documents that he could not sign his own name. Which means he couldn't spell. Add that to an east Kentucky accent and thus the confusion found in documents written by attorneys and clerks. He was married (firstly) on December 9, 1845,... Read More	Redeford died circa 1895.
