Research Notes

It is a VERY STRONG possibility that Elmira M. Reeves MIGHT be the Meeky M. Reeves that married Arnold Zellner on 10 Jul 1843 in Columbia, Maury County, Tennessee. Arnold Zellner was an engineer and a genius. He designed the first water system in Columbia. Meeky Reeves was his fourth wife! Source: Brenda Sonderegger found this on Find A Grave.
The second possibility for marriage is a connection with Aaron Zilander. Living next door to Andrew Reeves and four household's away from Jesse Reaves on the 1850 Lauderdale Co., AL. Census.
