Elijah Reeve wrote his will in 1789, naming his daughters as follows: "Mary Tucker, Keturah Newkirk, Rebekah Moore, Tempora Reeve, Abigail Seybolt, Bettsie Bull." The fact that his daughter "Tempora" is surnamed Reeve in his will and that his daughter Abigail was married at Goshen First Pres indicates that Elisha's wife Temperance was the daughter of Elijah. Which shows further that it was the other Elisha of Deerpark who was the son of Elijah.
