    1. Re: [REEVES] Roll Call - Joel Avery Reeves, died 1846, Jasper Co GA
    2. Hi, I am trying to find who Sarah Reaves from Jasper County Georgia was. She is listed as an 1827 land lottery winner from Captain Hines District # 119 in Jasper County for property in Muscogee County Georgia. The listing also say she was the widow of a Revolutionary Soldier. I have another Sarah Reeves that I have been trying to find. She was born in Rutherford County NC in abt 1800 in 1830 she was living in Hall County Ga, married to an Isaac Attaway with 2 daughters Elizabeth Caroline and Mary Jane. They remained in Hall County until 1850 when they went to Baldwin County. During the war years they had a son Chesley who was in the Confederacy. The girls both left Baldwin County and went to Muscogee County abt 1860 .Isaac died between 1870 and 1880 in Baldwin Co. By 1880 the mother Sarah was living with her two daughters and son in Columbus Muscogee GA. They all died between 1880 and 1900. and their line died with them. I have tried to find a marriage for Sarah and Isaac but none to be found. Isaac was from the Laurens District in SC. Many of his family were in Burke Co. Ga around the time of what would have been their marriage date 1821. I have since found the court house in Burke burned in 1825 so if this is where they married I am out of luck. If you have Reeves Reaves family in the Jasper, Baldwin, Burke, Muscogee Hall areas I would be interested in hearing from you. Thank you for you kind attention, Sharon
