Posted on: Pike County, Al Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Al/Pike/1648 Surname: Reeves ------------------------- I am from Pike County and am related to the Reeves family. I believe that my father and Mr. Ben Reeves were first cousins. My grandfather Mr. Howell Leverette also worked in the Pike County Sheriffs Dept. That would have been somewhere around the 1930's. I have never heard of Plesant Nichols, but I will ask some of my family. I was born in 1970 so I really do not remember a lot of the Reeves. I do remember Mr. Ben Reeves. His wife is still living in Troy. I also am familiar with the Johnson and Hale trial. I have a copy of the court transcripts. At the time of that trial I believe Mr. Sam Reeves was the Sheriff. His wife Mrs. Pearl Reeves was also Sheriff at one time. She was one of the first women Sheriffs in Alabama. I am sorry that I am not more help, but I will try and ask others in my family about Mr. Plez Nichols. Matt Leverette
