Posted on: Reavis, Reaves, Reves, Rivis Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/surnames/rea/Reavis/73 Surname: Revis, Brown ------------------------- You can't just throw a "Henry"out there, with no dates. As I understand it David Franklin was born ca1892 in area of Robertson Co Tn; his mother was Mary Brown; thus the "Henry" you think may be his father, likely was born ca1850-1870. We had one in Tn but he was born 1811 in NC, so this would not be him. As I told you previously the Henry Revis frm NC to Illinois was born 1752, Rev War soldier and could NOT be your Henry. Relatively speaking there are few Henry's in the family, the ones I have are accounted for. Have looked, but need to try and find him on an 1880 census. *Barb
