In 1849 when Elizabeth Reeves, widow of Azariah, petitioned the Orange County Court for a year's provisions, she stated that her husband had died in March of that year. Oddly, the 1850 census of Orange County, taken on the 23rd of July 1850, lists a 41 year old Azariah Reeves as a laborer in the household of Elizabeth Reeves and her children.
