This is the census information that I have regarding the John Reeves I am asking about: 1830 Washington Co, AR - Unknown Township - page 9 img 17 1840 Washington Co, AR - Unknown Township - img 16 1850 Marion Co, AR - image 40 1860 Marion Co, AR - Prarie Township - image 11 John Reeves - born between 1790-1792 - South Carolina Delilah - Unknown born about 1800 - North Carolina known - names of children - there were others but do not know the names (1) Green Reeves - md (1) Delilah (2) Sintha Sooter (2) Pleasant Andrew Reeves - md Mary Jane Hardester (3) Malinda Reeves (4) Clarinda Reeves md James Henderson Doyle (5) Colonel Thomas Reeves md Mary E Anderson according to the census prior to 1850 there were 2 other boys & one girl that names are unknown It is possible that the John Reaves & Minerva J in the 1860 census is yours but the dates do not match your Minerva J. According to the 1860 census she was born about 1840 in TN & there was a child - William M Reeves that was born about 1859 in AR - I do not see that child in your list. Think the John Reeves you have listed below is the son of Peter Reeves & Sarah Redden - His Minerva was born about 1827 in Alabama. This John Reeves was born about 1822-1824 in TN. Thoughts appreciated.
