John Reeve of Althorne Barnes in the parish of Althorne, Essex, wrote his will on 11 Nov 1680 and it was probated 25 Mar 1681. He mentions his wife Mary and sons Thomas, John and William.

The following Session Roll record from Essex likely has to do with his son John as it is dated about a year after the probate of this John's will:

• (30 March 1681/2) Recognizance of John Reeve Yeoman and Thomas Smith constable, both of Althorne: Reeve to abide the order of the Court and to answer William parmeter of asheldham thatcher for refusing to pay his wages for work.

Research Notes

The earliest parish registers for Althorne begin a while after the 1600s.
