I'm looking for more information on Benjamin Reeve(s) (d.1823) of New Jersey. He was the son of William Reeve(s). He had a daughter, Catherine (1780-ca 1843 in Ohio) who married Stephen Meeker (1788-1866) in 1800. On the same day/same minister married an Isaac Reeves and Easter Edwards. A Capt.Isaac Reeve(s) was a brother of William Reeve(s). The Isaac who married Easter may be a brother of Catherine. Other Meeker's married into the Edwards family. A Hannah Reeves(b. 1778) married Enoch Edwards (1778-1853) in NJ in 1799. There are some other Reeves/Edwards/Meeker connections and many fought in the Revolutionary War. I'm trying to sort them out and find descendants. Lin ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

Jeff, In the past I am certain I saw a Thomas Reeves who was an immigrant. He first was in Sulfolk, Co. NY but shortly was in N. J. I could not claim him but maybe I saved something.

>From a search on Google I found that the Reeves on the tractor was the logo of Reeves and Company of Columbus, Ohio. According to information found in the Bartholomew County, Indiana, Historical Society website, the Reeves brothers came to Columbus in 1875. They started the Hoosier Boy Plow Company which was a forerunner of Reeves and Company and the Reeves Pulley Company, manufacturers of pulleys and variable speed transmissions. They appear to have been bought out about 1913 by the J. I. Case Company (Case Tractors?). A check of the 1800 census shows M. T. Reeves, born about 1850 in Indiana, father born Ohio, mother born Ohio, wife Luisa, occupation manufacturer of plows. This appears to have been Marshall T. Reeves, son of William F. Reeves and wife Hannah. J. N. Reeves, born about 1845 in Indiana, father born Ohio, Mother born Ohio, wife Mary, occupation works in plow shop. This appears to have been James N. Reeves, son of Jabez Reeves and wife Nancy Coe. A. B. Reeves, born about 1840 in Indiana, father born Ohio, mother born Ohio, wife Panthin/Panthia, occupation manufacturer. This appears to have been Albert/Alfred B. Reeves, son of Jabez Reeves and wife Nancy Coe. William F. Reeves, father of Marshall T. Reeves, was also a son of Jabez Reeves and wife Nancy Coe. Jabez Reeves appears to have been a son of Eli Reeves and Sarah Redmond. Jabez died in 1895. An obit states he was one of the last members of the Reeves family who came to Indiana from Ohio in 1827.

Beulah, Thanks for the roll call. It is a great way to bring us back to the task and renew our search for the thread that ties our families together. My Reeves' family goes as follows: Harry Mathew Reeves Mathew Wilson Reeves (Georgia -- March 22, 1868 - May 9, 1844) Mark Wilson Reeves (Georgia -- November 9, 1834 -- 1912) Leroy Reeves (Born in SC) The first evidence of Leroy is land drawn in the Georgia Gold Lottery of 1832 while residing in DeKalb County; he moved to Cobb County, Georgia and then later to Calhoun County, Ala. after 1852; he may have died there (his widow returned to Georgia before 1870). I suspect, but cannot prove, that Leroy's father was Malachi Reeves (died 1859 in Cobb County Georgia). Both were in DeKalb County, Georgia, both moved to Cobb County, Georgia before 1840, and they lived in adjacent dwellings. Others living nearby in Cobb County around 1840 were John, Littleton, and Thompson. Malachi was in DeKalb County as of 1827. Before that Malachi appears to have been in Gwinnett County, portions of which were used to create DeKalb County. Malachi and Thompson are found in Jackson County by 1816. Gwinnett County was created from Jackson County and DeKalb from Gwinnett. It is quite possible that Malachi and related families lived in the same area from around 1810 or so until his move to Cobb County around 1840. Regards, Richard A. Reeves
