DAVID: I do not have anything on John Dewey Deaver. I am a descendant of Reuben Keith Deaver who came from North Carolina into Union County in the early 1800s. He had two families. His first family was large and many of them are still in Union County. Some of them plan to be at the reunion this coming Saturday, June 26. I do not know any of them. Reuben Keith Deaver's second family consisted of four boys. His second wife was Susannah Catherine CHAPMAN. I am descended from Reuben's second family, specifically from his son Solomon Alfred Deaver who married Amanda "Callie" Chastain (they are my grandparents). Reuben's first family consisted of 12 children and they had a bunch of descendants. John Dewey Deaver is probably a descendant of one of those children. I do not have any data on them. Perhaps some one on the GAUNION web site can answer your question about this man. I am sending a copy of this e-mail to that site, as well as to some of my Deaver relations. Perhaps some one will respond.

But, you also mention that you are going to Blairsville for a Deaver family reunion. My great-aunt, Maybell Odom, married John Dewey Deaver. Dewey's father was John Stanhope Deaver and his mother was Tennie Young. Can you share what you have on Dewey? Thanks, DAVID
