Narrative

Children of Adam Reaves and Mary Musgrave Jernigan:

1. Adam Reaves, Jr.
2. Edna Reaves
3. Smitha Reaves
4. Susanna Reaves

Adam Reaves' will stipulates that he desires the balance of his estate after the payment of his debts be equally divided between his four youngest children Smitha Reaves, Susanna Reaves, Adam Reaves and Edna Reaves. These children appear to be from his second marriage to Mary.

The 1880 census of Duplin County lists the mother of Adam Reaves, Jr., Mary, living in his household at age 80.
