Research Notes

Oliver may be a close relative of John Reve who died in 1671. His probate indicates he was of Tolleshunt Major which is the same as "Tolson Beckingham" where the late John Reeve deceased referred to in Oliver's will was resident. In addition this John had a son named Oliver who might either be this Oliver or the "Oliver Reeve the sone of John Reeve" referred to in Oliver's will.
