    3. That is a great site! I have recently discovered a new line of REEVES from Henderson County TN. Some of the family has invited me to a reunion at Natchez Trace State Park this Sunday on 8 July. I have tried to link them into my REEVES Branch (Richard E Reeves) but they have not targeted any of my ancestors that put-down roots in Henderson County. Looking through all US Census Records I found the earliest one in 1850 to be AP Reeves Female Head of Household. She was born abt 1810. The reunion is the descendants of John Buchanan (Buck) Reeves. I have not been able to progress back beyond his mother with a definite link. I will paste the earliest record. I would certainly appreciate any assistance from anyone that may have any information. I found several REEVES in Henderson County TN around this period but have not been able to establish a link to Buck or Richard Reeves. Prior to 1850 there is Drury, John, Richard E and John H Reeves. When I built this brief tree I had not noticed that A P Reeves was a female. 1 Descendants of A P Reeves Generation No. 1 1. A P1 REEVES1 was born 1810 in Tennessee1. Notes for A P REEVES: Considering the 1830 US Census, there were several head of household persons listed so this AP Reeves could have come from John, John H, Richard or Druary Reeves. It will be necessary to visit the State Archives at Nashville to, possibly, determine the who's of these early REEVES settlers More About A P REEVES: Residence: 1860, District 16, Henderson, Tennessee1 Child of A P REEVES is: 2. i.
