Research Notes

There was a John and Sarah some of whose children were listed in Stambourne register. Given the fact that some in this family appear at times in Stambourne, they may be this John:

• James the sonne of John Reve..Sara his wife baptised the ???? of ?April? (1639)
• Jonathan the sonne of John Reeve ? and Sarah his wife was Baptized the sextenth day of January 1645 (1646)
• Isaacke Reeve the sone of John Reeve and Sara his wife was Baptized the 10 of December 1650

Son James is almost certainly James Reeve of Sible Hedingham. Records concerning him frequently mention a Jonathan Reeve of Bocking who is likely his brother.
