Research Notes

There is currently nothing to document the relationship between William Reeves, Sr. and Richard Reeves other than proximity. There were only a few Reeves' individuals in Posey County, Indiana during the years 1820 to 1850 and they appear to all be part of the family of William Reeves, Sr.. Additionally Richard lists his birthplace as Kentucky in census records which is where William Reeves Sr. and his wife, Elleanor Wiggins Reeves were married and lived prior to moving into Indiana.
