Hester RENO ⁹⁷⁵

  General Notes:

She was called "Millie." She was also known as Rennoe. She was also known as Renoe.5 She was also known as Malinda Maddon Reno.6,7 She was also known as Mahala. She may have been a Madden by birth and Renoe by a first marriage. Her parents may have been John Madden and Polly Thorne. However, according to E. C. O'Rear II, her father was Francis Reno with wife, (--?--) Bayliss and showing 9 children including one "Millie (Malinda?)". This could not be the case as they would have been of the same generation as she was. Anyway, research done by the Reno family indicates her name was Hester. However, they have not determined who her parents were. Conjecture by this writer is that Hester or Malinda or Millie may have been a sister to Francis Reno and a daughter of Lewis Reno. Her married name was O'Rear. ⁹⁷⁵
