Narrative
Children of Alfred Reeves:- Harriet Reeves, m. Nathaniel Foster
- Jane Ann Reeves, m. Lewis Gandy
- Eliza Reeves
In an 1850 deed, a Nathaniel Reeves Jr. sold land "set off to Deborah Jackson one of the heirs of Abraham Reeves decd and the said Deborah Jackson having conveyed said swamp to Elmer and Alfred Reeves and the said Alfred having died the said party of the first part became heir to one eighth of the half part." This likely indicates that Elmer and Alfred were brothers and somehow part of the family of Abraham Reeves.
In another deed from the same year and to the same grantee, the heirs of Alfred Reeves are named as: Nathaniel Foster & Harriet his wife, Lewis Gandy & Jane Ann his wife, and Eliza Reeves. This again deals with land set off to Deborah Jackson as an heir of Abraham Reeves.
