Narrative

Children of Elijah C. Reeve and Rhoda Harding:

1. Fanny Jane Reeve, b. 19 Jul 1818, m. John N. Taylor
2. Harvey Harding Reeve, b. 6 Jan 1821

Elijah Concklin Reeve is named with his full name as a son in Elijah's will.

The 1850 census incorrectly gives his name as "Elija S Reeves."

The will of Amos Harding of Mount Hope in Orange County from 1845 mentions a daughter Rhoda Reeve. In the probate from 1852, Elijah C. "Reeve and Rhoda his wife" are mentioned as heirs.

Elijah is buried in New Vernon Cemetery, Mamakating Park, Sullivan County, New York. Findagrave states he died 15 Jun 1878, but this needs verifying.
